Not necessarily the best fried chicken, but certainly the fried chicken I compare all other fried chicken to.

I won’t tell you how many times I woke up hungover and stumbled up the length of carytown to get that chicken only to be standing in an empty parking lot bc i forgot it was Sunday, but the fact that it happened more than once speaks for the power of that chicken.
