Tried the new BK chicken sandwich spicy version with lettuce and tomato, added extra onions on the app. The size of the chicken is good, great crunch, good flavor but not very spicy, which is fine for me. I’d say it’s definitely better than McDs and KFC’s new sandwiches, maybe even better than Popeyes.
Also, shout out to the BK location at 5228 W Centinela, nicest staff with great service.
I’m no fast food expert but I finally tried the Popeye’s chicken sandwich and previously tried most of the others -I have to say KFC’s is the best overall. Popeye’s had a great coating but the chicken itself was dry and over cooked to my taste, also the chicken didn’t cover the bun so there was a lot of extra bun. The spicy sauce itself was fine but nothing to write home about.
Today I had the spicy sandwich. It’s been a while. It was juicy, crunchy coating, the bun wasn’t smashed and pressed down, the spicy sauce actually had some nice lingering heat. I think it’s the spiciest version out there.
My favorite I must say is still Chick-fil-A spicy sandwich because of the simplicity and the flavor is in the chicken and the flavor is in the coating, not the sauce.
But I’m giving the edge to KFC over Popeyes and Burger King.
Everything is a combo, with coleslaw and crinkle cut fries and “Texas Toast” which is just a buttered piece of bread. I only had a couple of the fries they were your average salty crinkle cut fries.
Crunchy, juicy, but they definitely need the sauce. The canes sauce is pretty damn good. Taste like ketchup mayo maybe a shot of Worcestershire.
The tenders are definitely not as flavorful as Chick-fil-A. I couldn’t detected any seasoning at all. The sauce is what really makes them. I was tempted to go across the street and compare to CFA but I decided to just head back.
But that changed,
As I’m driving back from Oxnard I started getting thirsty again, and I knew a McDonald’s was up ahead so I opened up the app to see what kind of deals there were and lo and behold… the Mighty Ducks won so $2.00 Big Macs. How could I refuse? I am no Grimace.
Added an extra patty, extra slice of cheese, extra onions, and extra pickles. Yep. Out the door for $3.82.
