| - When I heard that Bar Fancy won the fried chicken contest at the Drake, I was curious and invited some friends to join me. I had noticed the gold trimmed exterior for several months before and was curious as to what the space looked like on the inside as well.
We had gotten there before 7 pm on a Saturday, and they still had the happy hour menu which meant $2 pieces of fried chicken, and half price oysters. We got both, and also an Old Fashioned to wash down the chicken.
The chicken was indeed crispy on the outside, super moist on the inside, and spiced in a uniquely Asian way. The best part of course, is still the skin, and the batter they use is not as thick as other fast food places, and still has a lighter hue which means they use fresh oil. The chicken pieces are generously sized, and are indeed super moist when you bite in.
The menu is quite small owing to the mini sized kitchen right next to the bar area, but I was impressed at how they managed to make all their food in such a small space. Will definitely drop by again soon for more happy hour chicken.
