Ralphs is going upscale. I noticed a separate fried chicken area named The Chicken Co.

Darbi’s Cafe
Snow was falling as I visited Darbi’s Cafe. Warm inside. Didn’t need 2 layers of jackets any more.
Black Bear Diner
I’m excited as we go on a road trip to Black Bear Bear. I secure my Yeti Cooler so bears don’t get into it.
KFC – Mira Mesa Blvd
“We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.” Ralph Hattersley I took a few photos of the chicken when the guy behind the counter told me photos are not allowed.
Suckerfree Southern Plate & Bar
As I walked towards Suckerfree Southern Plate & Bar I recalled a few years ago there was a bbq joint here and across the street was a Hard Rock Cafe. Suckerfree has a good size menu.
Chicken Charlie’s FRYBQ
I’m a huge fan of Chicken Charlie’s facebook deal of the day. Everyday there is a new special. These are the dishes I’ve tried. Fried chicken was crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Very good flavor from the spices. A bit like Popeyes. This chicken is tastier but Popeyes is cheaper.
Howlin’ Ray’s
Saturday 10am. It’s opening time and there is a huge line. Luckily most of the line was in the shade so while it was hot and humid you won’t get sunburned.
By The Beach Caribbean Cuisine
I wake up Tuesdays and I think about battered pieces of chicken dipping into fresh canola oil. I try to get to By The Beach by 11am when the chicken is fresh out of the fryer.
