The unmarked graves of Ottawa's other KFC's

** _ UPDATE: Thanks to reader comments below & via Twitter - I added a few photos & locations to this list of recently demised KFC’s. _ ** While all of the attention this week has been on the demise of the Dirty Bird in Hintonburg , let us not forget the other area KFC’s that also closed this week, and in previous years. They kicked the proverbial 21-piece bucket, yet no wakes were held, no articles were written about their loss.

May they rest in peace.  Or rather, may they rest in delicious fried finger-licking good pieces. ** First, besides the Hintonburg KFC, three other local KFC’s closed in the past week ** : ** 1687 Montreal Road: **

At ** 190 Dalhousie Street ** in the Byward Market, Colonel Saunders has been ousted by the Restaurant Casa do Churrasco.  Did a KFC bucket once rotate on top of that pole?
