Lunch: Crispy Chicken with bacon and cheese, onion rings, soda water
BK has a new chicken sandwich probably designed to try and grab some market share from the massive following that Chick-Fil-A has. While a vast improvement on the oblong inferior Chicken Tendercrisp (which is still available), this isn't going to do it.
I've had three of these since they launched. The first was cooked to order and was wonderful. The other two, one of which was the cheddar-bacon-ranch variety, weren't because the chicken and bacon had that "pre-cooked and sitting in a warming bin for way too long" taste to them. The cheese was cold, had no melt to it at all. Bleh.
But even the cooked-to-order one wasn't quite on the level of Chick-Fil-A.
Also upping its chicken sandwich game is KFC. They have a new "Zinger" chicken sandwich. That one's way tastier. The chicken has an extra crispy coating and a really great spicy seasoning. They should rightly sell a bajillion of them but probably won't because Chick-Fil-A is so good at what they do, their fans have no reason to even think of going elsewhere. Also, while it's great, it feels like a completely different product.
In other chicken news, I may get to try Slim Chickens this weekend. That's one of those chicken tender chains. They opened their first Wichita store this week.
Wait...isn't it National Burger Month?
Danged chickens.
