World Domination

All the international fast food chains are absent from Sulaimaniyah except one. There is no McDonalds, Pizza Hut or Burger King, but strangely enough there is New Zealand's own Burger Fuel! Expanding rapidly in the ME, Burger Fuel first set up here two years ago and has since opened a further outlet in Baghdad.

Yes the burgers are good and even better are the chips but it is very expensive. A burger cost 8,000 dinars ($8) where a local version will cost 3000 and a coke at BF is twice the normal price. This may explain why it wasn't busy at 7pm, though it must be doing OK to survive.
The franchise owner is a New Zealander, though he was there at the time and all the staff are Arab!
