| - So I was on my way to a workout class, and I thought what better way to fuel my body than with fried chicken? lol
See, there's no Popeye's near my house, so I don't get to eat it often, and I figure any time I'm near a location I NEED to get it. It's a requirement.
Hell, back in the day it was a rule in our family that we would always run and get Popeye's at the Dallas and Houston airports between connections. My husband has nearly missed our plane more than once doing that - running to the gate after the final boarding call holding a bag of southern chicken! I'm sure our fellow airplane friends thought we were nuts.
But it's just that good dammit!
I always get the spicy fingers. I've never even had the bone-in kind yet. I love how crispy their coating is, and the spice is so nice! They use high quality chicken, too - this is not the pre-chewed crap that's inside McNuggets. It's real strips of chicken breast, and you get a good quantity of chicken every time.
I also LOVE the biscuit. Always ask for honey to go with it, cuz that's the only way to eat it.
I've tried most of their side dishes, and I think I like the mashed potatoes best. The mac and cheese is ok, my hubby likes the beans and rice, the fries are just ok, and I've never had the onion rings.
So although I ate all my calories prior to burning any off at my exercise class, it was SO worth it.
And please, Popeye's, don't open a location any closer to my house cuz then I'll have to eat it more often!
