First time I ever tried eating there.
So what was it like?
Well, in a word, awesome.
I've always been a fan of KFC, since back when they went by their full name Kentucky Fried Chicken, but in the last few years I really felt that KFC was slipping. KFC chicken doesn't have that same good taste - and worse yet, they split the big keel piece of chicken, which means it dries out.

I must say it was delicious, the taters were seasoned perfectly, big and chunky, and had the perfect crisp on the outside and soft fluffy inside.
