This does not answer the question but never mind.

If you use osmisis to load the planet (or part there of) into a
database, you can search for all the KFC with the following SQL

select * from node_tags a, node_tags b, nodes where
a.node_id=b.node_id and a.k='name' and a.v='KFC' and b.k='amenity' and
b.v='fast_food' and nodes.id=a.node_id;

I keep meaning to write a cheat sheet and put it on the wiki for doing
this.  The seam to be 72 in the Uk which seams like quite a lot.

Other Fast Food, Fried Chicken outlets are available.

Peter.
