I visited McDonald's Global Menu Restaurant in Chicago — and tried delicious international fare like the Chinese Kung Pao Chicken Sandwich and Malaysian mango sundae
Unfortunately, a couple global menu items weren't available when I visited — including the Benedict Bagel from New Zealand, and the mini donuts and mini apple fritters from Canada — but I ordered every global item I could.
I arrived just before the lunch rush, so thankfully there was ample seating, though the restaurant quickly filled up during my time there. After ordering, I was given a number and instructed to sit down and wait for a staffer to deliver my food — I definitely wasn't in a traditional McDonald's anymore.My food arrived about five minutes later on a big tray, ready for me to dive in.I popped open the lids to get a glimpse and survey the spread before deciding where to start.I started with the mango sundae from Malaysia, $2.59, before it melted, and because sometimes it's fun to have dessert first.I've long been a fan of McDonald's hot fudge sundae in the US, as well as the famous vanilla soft serve, so this was a pleasant surprise. The mango topping reminded me a bit of the fruit that comes with a Fage yogurt cup, so that made this feel a bit like I was enjoying a frozen yogurt.I started with the Kung Pao Double Crispy Chicken sandwich, $5.99, from China.The sandwich includes two crispy McChicken patties, shredded lettuce, and Kung Pao dressing on a cross bun.Bethany Biron/Insider After a few bites, I put the Kung Pao on pause to test the Aussie Angus Burger from, you guessed it, Australia, $6.99.
