| - KFC/Popeye's made-to-order AND with an ethnic twist!
I was in the area, had this place on bookmark, and PMS'g, so I thought that I'd drop by. I wanted to order the Taiwanese Pork Sandwiches - which I think they serve at Momofuku for like $5/pc or something ridiculous - but skipped it as it did not come in a combo.
So instead, I ordered the Koo Koo Burger (think: fresher, larger McChicken) Combo - $7.95, came with fries + drink. The guy behind the counter suggested the Lemonade, so I got that as opposed to a Milky BBT. I probably waited 10mins for my order. Both items were piping hot!
Since it was an in-between time, ~4pm, I saved the food for later and drank the Lemonade. Drink was not particularly my fav with a fakey lemon taste which reminded me of dish soap, but it was not overly sugary which was good. There were some clear jellies at the bottom and it was quite refreshing. Personally, I don't like fakey citrusy drinks, so I probably wouldn't order this one again.
Ate the burger a coupla hours later and it was still GOOD. Despite being fried, the chicken itself is still moist which is contrary to those chain-fried chicken places.
Anyway, if you're in the mood for fried chicken, I'd definitely opt for this place before I even think of KFC/Popeye's. Again, since everything is made-to-order, it does take time to prepare, so don't expect McSpeed.
Maybe it's a good thing that it's not in my 'hood??
