Yesterday, I saw a restaurant pairing for the first time. It was a combination A&W restaurant and KFC just a mile or two from home. It was built *very* recently, so I hadn't seen it before. It was the first time I'd ever seen a combo restaurant; I hadn't seen one when I originally read this thread, and was a bit surprised to read about combo restaurants here.

Also, it was the first time I'd seen an A&W restaurant here in Oregon.
