Having been to Creepy for the first time ever, last week, I'm assuming 349 of those restaurants will be opening there.

Yet another fried chicken shop, just what we all crave . . . not.

Chick-Fill-A is better, I wish they would open up over here even if they're a bit too forthright with their religious opinions.

They tried but the good people of Reading ran them out of town (and the country) - https://www.getreading.co.uk/whats-on/food-drink-news/chick-fil-closing-reading-restaurant-17935172

There was a least one over here, but it was boycotted and eventually closed down due to the CEO's less than tolerant views.

I had it in Harlem New York once, it was pretty poor! It was only when I moved to London I realised how integral chicken and chips are to many cultures. Personally I like to binge on dirty chicken a couple of times a year, but that will do.

Popeyes is vile. I was working next to one of their "restaurants" in the US for a month and the smell of whatever crap they put in the batter is repulsive.

In other news, I really fancy fried chicken now. Thanks.

Apparently it's the shiznit.

Excellent. We really don't have enough chicken shops in this country.

They had loads of Popeye's in the Middle East. Didn't really stand out among the huge number of fast food offerings. Much better options for your chicken fix - Al Baik or Lebanese Flower for a roasted bird with all the trimmings. Drool

The most surprising thing to happen on The Sopranos.

Fried chicken is one of the most unhealthy ways to eat a chicken . Enough said . I wouldn’t eat that stuff ever .

OK Boomer.

Can't be long before the Walkers Max Popeyes arrive

Hehe

Can’t beat a nice piece of grilled chicken with a fresh salad . There’s a reason these fast food places specialise in fried chicken , so they can put a flavoured batter onto a poor quality chicken and people think it still tastes great !

 

[BN41Albion]

Just what we need ffs

 

[PTC Gull]

Resist. As said before its probably the worst you can get.

I work with a guy who loves Popeye's chicken. He convinced us to order it for a team lunch meeting once. I'd had it once before and I wasn't impressed but I was willing to give it another try. It was f***ing terrible. Dried out chicken which tasted like it had been marinated solely in salt.

They also opened the first Chik-fil-A (what a terrible name) here a couple of years ago. For the first few weeks people were queueing for hours to get some. It's just fried chicken, I don't get it
