I thought those franchises used modular construction? When I used to live in a city I remember them going up over a weekend and open for business a week later. Of course, they didn't have Hawaii permitting issues.
There used to be a burger franchise called Hot N Now, which anybody who ate there called The Rotten Cow. Their claim to fame in the 90's was their 39 cent burger. I remember them putting one of them up near the apartment I was living in and it opened up before the paint was dry. I'm guessing the slab was poured prior, but it went from an empty lot to a tiny burger drive through over a 3-day weekend. Ironically, the chain was owned by Pepsi because all the "better" fast food places served coke products and they were hoping that if they sold a dry, salty, 39 cent burger, a person might buy a wanna-be coke product to wash it down with. It failed. I drink cola maybe once a year, but if my once-yearly option is pepsi or water, I'll take the water.
