Church’s Fried Chicken Arrives in Midtown
I love fried chicken… and can you blame me? I won’t step anywhere near a McDonalds, but KFC or Popeyes? You probably aren’t going to want to get in my way. I don’t know why that is. Oh wait- yes I do. Fried chicken is amazing. And, if you are as big a fried chicken fan as me you might be interested in knowing that a branch of Church’s Chicken recently opened inside that mini food court on 8th Avenue between 44+45th.
I’ll admit, I don’t think I’ve ever eaten at Church’s. I was always a KFC fan growing up, a Popeye’s fan later in life (after spending so much time in New Orleans), and I had a brief flirtation with Bojangles in 1986. But never Church’s. Anybody a big fan? Feel free to sound off in the comments. I’m curious if this new addition to the Midtown Lunch’ing landscape is something to get excited about…

Bossman found himself in Newark, NJ of all places last evening. Lo and behold behind the Pru Center he wandered into a Bojangles and proceeded to devour the crunchiest- crusted, moistest-interior leg and thigh he has ever had. The coating wasn’t quite as up front with the spices as some of the others but it has a nice followthrough of heat in the mouth. The biscuit was a little dry (and ginormous) and the dirty rice was standard but the chicken was sublime. In the words of my new favorite flogger that shit was “the shizz!”
His lily-white ass stood out like a sore thumb but he didn’t care, the $3 crack ho’s, soap sellers and panhandlers only served to provide ambiance. How many places do you get a dinner show with your $5.99 combo?
Damned you ML, Bossman will never be able to pass one by again without partaking.

Stolen from roastmaster general Jeffrey Ross.
You left out his next line though:
“Goes in as a two piece, comes out as a two thousand piece.”

Based on some of the feedback that I have gathered from this site, I have been trying to convince an investor group to open a Korean style fried chicken (ie: Bonchon Chicken) in Midtown.
Do you think you would go for after work chicken and beer? If anyone has suggested locations, please let me know. I am thinking somewhere in the 50’s btw 6th Ave and Madison?
