If you want good fried chicken Golden Corrals fried chicken is much better than KFC (my opinion). Also Speckled Butterbean has very good fried chicken but it seems not to be as consistently good as Golden Corral. I just don't know why people think that KFC is that good. I usually find their chicken dry.

Regarding the cleanliness of KFC now that they are renovating it if the same managers are there that were there before I would venture to say that cleanliness is not high up on their list so even though they have renovations I don't think there will be much changes regarding cleanliness.

Seriously, Publix has great fried chicken and are much cheaper than KFC. They frequently have the whole bird on sale for $5. Give them a try.

I think Publix fried is much better as well. Not nearly as greasy, but moist and crunchy...

I agree that the fried chicken at Golden Crral is excellent. My second choice is Mccalls which is also very good.

Sorry. I think it is easier for someone to find a post if the number is given rather than indicating a name.

"I am not a number" was just a play on the old British TV series called The Prisoner who was trying to escape from a community called the Village. Was meant as a joke but probably too obscure I guess.

I tear off the outside of the KFC chicken because the inside is moist and tender and yummy and the outside is really, really greasy. I try not to think about the floors and the general appearance of the restaurant when I take that great chicken home with me. I also like the mashed potatoes and gravy that taste NOTHING like we make at home but still is good in it's own way.

I wish they'd have a little stricter franchise standards.

Hey guys, did you ever eat from the hot dog stand on Park Ave or the Chicken and Bread stand in Old San Juan or that Little Cantina in Mathis Texas or Tony's in Phillipsburg St. Martins etc, etc. ? I agree that all food places in Florida or elsewhere should be clean, no argument there, just saying.

No, but I almost bought a churro from a kid standing in a cloud of dust while I was waiting to get back across the border to San Diego from TJ!

When in doubt, check out the bathrooms...I hate dirty bathrooms and if there is no handsoap.......ugh!!! What, if anything, are the employees using??? I also look at the door as I enter the restaurant, it's impossible to prevent fingerprints but a dirty door is a clear indication!!

It is a shame that a couple of places to eat have so little respect for their business as to not take the time to keep them even basically clean.

never ever had that experience there. The place was always clean, it was just some of the personnel that were questionable

It's all shiny and clean . New tables, chairs, clean floor. The windows are still not good, but it is something about the glass. Chicken still awesome !
