As mentioned above, the meat is juicy and the skin is crispy without being oily. My only complaint was the seasoning of the batter, or lack of it. Aside from being a little salty, I found the taste of the batter to be quite bland, at least compared to what is served at L.A. Chicken. That aside, I think Kings offers great value along with the added bonus of being fairly close to my home, meaning I don't have to risk my car and my life trekking all the way out to Richmond to get my fried chicken fix.

One word ...... awesome.<br /><br />Yes, their daily "happy hours" (11am-3pm) offerings where drumsticks at $1 each and chicken karaage (basically DF drummettes & wings) at $0.50 each definitely swayed me favorably. BUT these were danged good DF chicken no matter what the price. <br /><br />Chicken pieces were meaty and juicy, the battered skin not at all oily and crunchy and airy & light.<br /><br />Service is escargot-slow since a lot of folks come to pick up takeouts. hence slowing down the kitchen big time.<br /><br />I had 2 drumsticks (huge) with 6 pieces karaage plus a bowl of plain rice since I didn't feel like having more fries which add to the deep fried-ness of the whole meal (I know, I'm a rebel), with a pop for like $6-ish total.<br /><br />Will definitely return to check out their other offerings.<br />LotusRapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04996696895446779820noreply@blogger.com
