The one in WF isn't exactly on the main drag either. There used to be a PDQ beside it; they recently closed and I've heard that a Cook Out is coming to fill the spot. Best thing I've heard about them is that they regularly have about 45 flavors of milkshakes, with special ones added seasonally.

This one was more like Chick-Fil-A, but not as good. When they first opened, they had a blueberry cole slaw which was pretty good. We'd not been there in some years when we went a couple of years ago and found
that the cole slaw had been taken off the menu. As for Popeyes--the nearest one is Raleigh; we do have a couple of Bojangles in town but we prefer Popeyes.

Chick Filly was *never* high on my list of "bought chicken'. There used
to was a regional chain called Brown's Chicen that had more location in Springfield than McDonalds. And the chicken was excellent so the places
were alway busy. But in '93 there was a massacre in a Chicago area store
(7 employees killed) which caused a fall off in business and led to the
closure of many stores. All of the Springfield store closed. Many of the buildings hold other food places. One has my favourite Chinese restaurant,
Tai Pan. A couple of others are now Subway stores. And one is home to
Peerless Cleaning & Restoration Services a leading carpet cleaner,
disaster resuce, flood restoration, etc. company.

I was sad to see tem go. Especially when my other favourite chicken
joint left town and I was stuck with Kentucky Fried Colonel until we
got Popeyes.

1 lg Carrot
1 md Onion
Mayonaise; as needed

they use cottonseed oil rather than vegetable oil.

We've tried both Bojangles and KFC (both represented here in WF) but
prefer Popeyes, even tho the closest one is in Raleigh.

Never tried Bojangles. We've got a newly come to town Cane's on the
far west side ('bout as far from me as is possible and still be "in
town"). I have yet to try them.

We used to have a Church's Chicken but whoever picked the location
seemingly went strictly on traffic count. Easy enough to get into
their parking lot - but getting out was a really frustrating, road rage inducing experience. They are ((were, haven't been for a while) very
close to Popeyes. There is one near(ish) to you in Raliegh and another
in Durham if you get over that way.

This is for their tame chicken. They also serve a zippy version.

I presume you'll give a report when you do. Bojangles is a southern
chain, IIRC, based here in NC.

They don't seem to take anything else but into consideration. Both the
one in Jacksonville and the one in Savannah (first couple we ever
saw/tried) were on busy, divided roads/streets without a convenient
traffic light. One we stopped at in northern AZ out in almost the middle
of nowhere was on the main road thru town but it was a small town so
ther probably wasn't a lot of traffic on the road.

The one we stopped at in AZ didn't offer the jalapeno pepper with the
meal. It was closed for eat in (drive thru was open) but they let us
inside since we couldn't do the drive in while towing the camper.

The nearest one to me is over 70 miles northwest in Peoria. And in a
VERY dodgy neighbourhood. I was never tempted to stop there when I was delivering to the AutoZone right down the street.

Title: Deep Fried Chicken Gizzards
Categories: Poultry, Chilies, Dairy
Yield: 3 servings

1 lb Chicken gizzards; cleaned, or
- chicken livers
1 c Whole milk buttermilk
2 tb Hot sauce
2 ts Everglades or Mrs. Dash
- seasoning, to taste

MMMMM-------------------------BREADING-------------------------------
1 c Self rising flour
1 tb Everglades or Mrs. Dash
- seasoning, to taste
2 ts Smoked paprika
1 ts Black pepper

Marinate chicken gizzards in ingredients 2-4 for 8-12
hours to overnight. The buttermilk will help tenderize
the gizzards

Drain chicken gizzards/livers. In a mixing bowl combine
all the breading ingredients. Bread the giblets, making
sure you coat them evenly.

Set deep fryer @ 325oF/165oC.

Deep fry for 4-6 minutes or until golden brown. Drain
on paper towels

Plate up and serve with your favorite hot sauce!

If you want really tender gizzards, simmer the chicken
gizzards in some water with a little salt, garlic powder
and hot sauce for 10-15 minutes. Cool, bread, then fry.

Makes 2 to 4 serings
