pollo campero!
particularly in LA, where none of the staff speak english and the place is true to its guatemalan origins. |

Paula Dean's Lady and Sons in Savannah, GA had hands down the best fried chicken I've ever had.

Amy Ruth's in NYC on 116th between Lenox and 7th. I had the fried chicken and waffles. Best waffles I have ever had and stunning chicken. Maybe the best fried chicken too. Some of the Korean places in NYC are very good. Amy Ruth's was from another world.

Apparently some are corporate owned and some are franchised, and quality varies greatly. |
The secret to fried chicken (anywhere) is "little" chickens, preferably no more than 2-2.5 lb fryers.

I'm going to vote for the hot foods counter at any Publix grocery store. Every single Publix somehow is able to turn out amazing fried chicken.

The Brookville Hotel in Abilene, Kansas. The Brookville Hotel was founded in Brookville, KS in the late 1800's, but became known for its fried chicken in 1915. In 2000, the decision was made to move the restaurant to Abilene, and the building is very similar to the original. Best fried chicken dinner ever!

I must admit, but admittedly potentially hit and miss, much of the supermarket deli counter fried chicken (especially if recently fried) is as good and often better than that at some of the legendary temples of fried chickenry and the chain restaurants.
I do crave the livers from the Central Texas chain, Bush's"... |
Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant, at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park.
You still get a full meal including soup or salad and dessert for about $15. And yes, the chicken is good but the sides are pretty ordinary. |
Popeyes is good but, I always get the runs without fail. :mad:

Indeed. The one on State street behind the Hilton is HORRIBLE, Hyde Park is pretty good, and I've heard good things about the one down by Cermak and Michigan/State, but haven't been there.
