๐บ๐ธ๐ The Worldโs Most Authentic KFC Restaurant!
๐ข Even though itโs not Crazy Thursday, as a first-time visitor to Louisville, Kentucky, I couldnโt 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 chainโs 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 โ making it the most authentic in the world! ๐ ๐ How to Get There: Drive to 3202 Shelbyville Rd, Shelbyville, KY 40065 (about 30 minutes from downtown Louisville, right off the highway). ๐๐จ โ The Vibe: A traditional Southern two-story white wooden house, already decorated with Christmas lights and ribbons! ๐โจ Inside, youโre greeted by warm hospitality and seated in a rustic hall with a cozy fireplace. Mostly local white customers โ likely enjoying the taste of their childhood! ๐ง๐ณ๐ฅ ๐ข Heads-up: Sundays offer an all-you-can-eat buffet (yes, unlimited fried chicken! ๐). But since this calorie bomb might be too much for some, I recommend ordering a single portion. โ What to Order: Claudiaโs Chicken Special (fried chicken version): Tender, juicy, perfectly marinated with a peppery kick โ no comparison to modern KFC! ๐๐ Baked Apple: Homemade, not too sweet, and cuts through the richness. ๐ Note: The menu is all about fried chicken โ no steaks or burgers here! Also, youโll be eating fried chicken with a knife and fork for the first time! ๐ด๐ ๐ฏ Price: Around $15 โ super affordable! Sauces: No ketchup! Instead, try: A sweet honey glaze ๐ฏ A tangy mustard-cream sauce (spicy kick!) ๐ถ๏ธ A savory gravy Each fried chicken plate comes with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy โ pure comfort food! ๐ฅ๐ If you canโt finish, just take it away! ๐ฅก #USA #TravelUSA #Louisville #KFC #ColonelSanders #AuthenticFood #FoodHistory
