strategic location much? You can also tell the building used to be a Long John Silver´s |

It's been said it's better to burn out than to fade away. I count myself among the fortunate few able to try FFC during its brief run last year (I think it stayed open a month or two). Apparently Flav had long dreamed of opening a fast food chain, and the partners he found to make that a reality convinced him to build the first outpost in their hometown of Clinton, Iowa. I've never really spent much time in Clinton so I will just say it's not the first place in Iowa you'd think of when launching a new restaurant chain and leave it at that. A group of us piled in a van and made the 1:30 pilgrimage from Iowa City to FFC. You could sense even then that all was not well: collard greens as a side- unavailable. Credit card machine- not working. There was a sign hung up behind the counter that was soaked in grease:
The food was fine for fast food chicken.
