KFC – Miramar Road

I started eating Kentucky Fried Chicken when I was a kid.  Growing up my mom and brother both worked nights and most of the time I had leftovers.  Once in awhile I would get a 2 piece or 3 piece for dinner at Kentucky Fried Chicken.  As time passed corporate sidelined the Colonel and rebranded as KFC.  The prices went up and they added more menu items.  I don’t visit that often as it’s $24 for 8 pieces now.

They started a Tuesday 8 pieces for $10 deal and I gave it a try.

The 8 piece bucket is enough for 2 or 3 people.  I ordered the original recipe and the batter/skin was slightly crispy with tons of flavor from the 11 herbs and spices.

Chicken was tender and juicy.  Great tasting chicken.

I also tried the apple pie poppers.  I liked the crispy outer layer.

Too much batter and not enough apple filling for me.  I liked the sweet apple flavor of the filling but it was hard to taste due to too much pastry part.

On other visits I tried:

Wings were 6 for $5.  Not a very good deal as they count half a wing as a wing.  I tried the wings with honey bbq sauce.  Wings were crunchy except for the part covered in sauce.  Sauce had some sweetness and a bitter flavor.  Wings tasted very different from their original recipe chicken.  I wouldn’t order them again.

Slush drink came in 3 different flavors.  I was hoping it would be like a Dole Whip but it turned out to be like a Slurpee.  Texture was icy just like a Slurpee.  Flavor had an artificial pineapple flavor like you would get in a Slurpee.  I would not order this again.

Server was nice and efficient.  Place is clean and shiny as they remodelled a year ago.  I love the original recipe fried chicken but not that impressed by other menu items.
