🇺🇸🍗 The World’s Most Authentic KFC Restaurant!
📢 Even though it’s not Crazy Thursday, as a first-time visitor to Louisville, Kentucky, I couldn’t miss paying homage to the birthplace of KFC! Ironically, the current KFC company has no ties to the white-bearded Colonel Sanders since he sold it in 1964. Disappointed by the chain’s deviation from the original recipe, he reopened his old shop in Shelbyville, naming it "Claudia Sanders" after his wife. This restaurant uses the original KFC recipe – making it the most authentic in the world! 🏆 📍 How to Get There: Drive to 3202 Shelbyville Rd, Shelbyville, KY 40065 (about 30 minutes from downtown Louisville, right off the highway). 🚗💨 ✅ The Vibe: A traditional Southern two-story white wooden house, already decorated with Christmas lights and ribbons! 🎄✨ Inside, you’re greeted by warm hospitality and seated in a rustic hall with a cozy fireplace. Mostly local white customers – likely enjoying the taste of their childhood! 🧑🍳🔥 📢 Heads-up: Sundays offer an all-you-can-eat buffet (yes, unlimited fried chicken! 🍗). But since this calorie bomb might be too much for some, I recommend ordering a single portion. ✅ What to Order: Claudia’s Chicken Special (fried chicken version): Tender, juicy, perfectly marinated with a peppery kick – no comparison to modern KFC! 😋👌 Baked Apple: Homemade, not too sweet, and cuts through the richness. 🍎 Note: The menu is all about fried chicken – no steaks or burgers here! Also, you’ll be eating fried chicken with a knife and fork for the first time! 🍴😅 💯 Price: Around $15 – super affordable! Sauces: No ketchup! Instead, try: A sweet honey glaze 🍯 A tangy mustard-cream sauce (spicy kick!) 🌶️ A savory gravy Each fried chicken plate comes with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy – pure comfort food! 🥔🍄 If you can’t finish, just take it away! 🥡 #USA #TravelUSA #Louisville #KFC #ColonelSanders #AuthenticFood #FoodHistory
