. "Koo Koo Chicken is a very random little Taiwanese chicken joint in a dead plaza located at the outskirts of Mississauga. \n\nBut that doesn't mean their chicken isn't downright delicious. \n\nI'm not sure where to place Koo Koo chicken in the spectrum of restaurants. They're not quite fast food because their menu doesn't cater to high volume party purchases like KFC or Popeyes. Yet they aren't quite a typical restaurant either, as they don't actually provide servers for water, napkins or utensils. If you've ever been to Asia, Koo Koo Chicken's model is very similar to their Cafe de Coral's franchise. Expect a very casual eating environment, so I don't recommend bringing a first date here or something. (Unless you're below the age of 17, then go for it buddy!) \n\nKoo Koo Chicken's menu comprises of three main combo offerings:\n\n1) Chicken steak\n2) Chicken leg and thigh \n3) Popcorn chicken (koo koo chicken bites)\n\n(Note: They also offer pork sandwiches, chicken sandwiches, chicken with rice and non-combo options)\n\nI ordered the chicken leg and thigh combo. All combos comes with fries and a drink. The fries were very average, but each table at Koo Koo Chicken provides a selection of seasoning (curry, lemon, pepper, seaweed, spicy, plum) at the table that provides a nice and fun way to add flavour to your fries. I also got their Taiwanese lemonade drink, which was pretty good and helps with the saltiness of the fries and chicken. \n\nNow about the chicken: It's friggen delicious. Fried chicken is BEST when it is freshly fried. The pieces I had were fresh from the deep fryer, and so it was very crispy and very juicy. Maybe it was just my luck that day, but I found that my drumstick piece was enormous. The flavour is very tasty and is much better than your typical Popeyes or KFC. \n\nAs a tip and warning, I also tried their popcorn chicken and it was a disappointment. Many bubble tea places offer popcorn chicken, and I expected a real fried chicken establishment to exceed popcorn chicken from a bubble tea place but it didn't. I do not recommend the popcorn chicken. \n\nThe price of Koo Koo is very reasonable. You're looking at $10-11 for a combo, and there's no tips expected by the establishment. \n \nCome here for a tasty, inexpensive, non-formal meal between friends."^^ . "2015-12-22T00:00:00"^^ .
