They dynamic duo is back again... The seductive Shaun Doty and ravishing Lance Gummere. When word got out about their new chicken shack, I thought they were opening a brothel. Everyone in this one horse town knows their pimp hand is strong... Especially, when it comes to chicks. Lance slammed it well behind the shed and Shaun, well, you know, he got his hands on a lot of soft round buns... Some were even gluten free. But enough of their culinary prowess... I wonder if that urban legend is true. You know, the one that says the best way to eat a chick is with one leg behind each ear... Let's go investigate.
Poutine. Great fries, not enough curds, a bit over salted and overkill on the chicken gravy. I felt like I should be bobbing for curds... Someone once told me it's kinda like muff diving but less messy. A little less gravy and salt, a little more curds would make this a craveworthy dish.
Fried chicken tenders. These multi-use fried chicken digits on the menu are pretty awesome. Crispy, crunchy outside and juicy tender inside. They can finger me all day long with these hunky chubbies but they still ain't no Popeyes. The dipping sauces are pretty tasty... I like the wasabi and piri piri.
Chicken pot pie. Not the traditional pie you find around Ansley but it was full of flavor and fresh tasting. It's more of a hearty chicken soup that's topped with a girthy biscuit to "sop" up the business after you're done slurping it.
1/2 Rotisserie chicken. Never get the 1/4 because it dries out too quickly, gotta stick with the half order to do it justice. And justice it did, it's a good rotisserie chicken. Thin, golden bronze skin, a luscious blend of juicy dark and white meat all in one package... A sexy combination you don't usually find in this area. The mac 'n cheez was ok, not cheesy enough. The brussels sprouts were a little moist, dripping sweet honey glaze on my chin with every bite. For $14, this will fill your manhole for the rest of the night with no complaints from me... No walk of shame the next morning, either.
Banoffee and cherry pie. I like small pies with creamy fillings... What red blooded American male doesn't? I'm sick of the super-sized pies that are served all over town... I always feel so stretched out afterwards.
Will this hunky duo have a winning recipe in this re-imaged strip mall? Probably. This place is socially acceptable no matter what your culinary orientation is. Go grab a bite, they won't unless you ask nicely... Or not.
Pump pump...
Squirt.
