| - What if there was a place like Raising Cane's that offered their chicken tender combos with rice, instead of fries? A hawaiian sweet roll, instead of Texas toast? A tangy asian slaw, instead of a creamy coleslaw? And a variety of sauces for dipping, not just the one mayo-based BBQ sauce? If you're like me, you were probably wondering if there could be such a place...there is my friend, Mochiko Chicken offers just that and then some...
So, I just happened to be on the west side of town on some business driving down Decatur (starving, was lunchtime and I hadn't had breakfast...) when I looked up and saw a strip mall sign. At the bottom, in bold black and white letters it read "Mochiko Chicken"...I thought to myself, I like mochiko chicken! Better check it out...before I get too hangry.
Located on the corner of Decatur blvd. and O'Bannon Dr., right near the Trader Joe's. If you blink, you could miss it. It's a smallish, but bright and clean establishment on the inside, with a very friendly, welcoming staff. Mochiko Chicken offers up some asian inspired fast-food chicken bowls, grilled or fried. The fried chicken is coated with a lightly seasoned rice flour. I checked in with Yelp, and there was a $1 off coupon for the Ohana chicken tender combo...thanks Yelp!, sold! The Ohana combo comes with 4 pieces of their mochiko fried chicken tenders, seasoned fries (I substituted with white rice), a hawaiian sweet roll, Asian slaw and a choice of 2 sauces. The chicken was juicy and delicious, not dried out like tenders can be...pretty good sized pieces too. The Asian slaw was sweet and tangy, reminded me of the vinaigrette you would get with a Chinese chicken salad, was okay. The sauces I got were the Polynesian, a sweet creamy concoction, it was so good, I could've drank it...also, got the ginger-teriyaki sauce, nice strong ginger flavor, could smell it right away. The Combo also came with a drink, I got the Lychee Lemonade, was a thirst quencher for sure...not too sweet and has that distinct lychee taste (if you haven't had lychee before, you might not like it...)
I pretty much did a drive-by of this place, but I like Mochiko Chicken's business model...I guess with it's namesake, it better be some damn good chicken, right?
I'll definitely be back, if I'm ever on that side of town again (and hungry). We need a Mochiko Chicken in Henderson, please.
