Popeye’s Chicken
Review: Waffle Battered Chicken Strips Have you ever ordered something to eat and received an entirely different item then you expected? Today this is what happened to me. Cleaning my kitchen after lunch and putting the baby to sleep, I made myself a good and healthy chocolate peanut butter and banana smoothie. As I started sipping, my brother came through the door asking if I wanted anything from Popeye’s. In an almost brainless response, I threw my health-conscious choice right down the drain. “Yep.” I quickly responded also nodding my head up then down in agreeance. “Just get me any box they have with chicken strips and Cajun rice; Oh and of course a Pepsi,” I shouted out behind him as he left. Even though I had a smoothie and wasn’t super hungry, I was looking forward to eating Popeye’s for lunch. I took a few bites of my Cajun rice, the biscuit, and then the chicken strips. The rice was seasoned well and fresh as usual, the biscuit smeared with honey sauce was fluffy and warm, which I also enjoyed; but the chicken was different. The chicken strips looked to be fried perfectly. They were golden brown, fresh, and crispy. But when I bit into them, I knew these weren’t their regular Louisiana fried chicken strips. They were buttery, sweet, and savory-tasting all at the same time. Waffle battered chicken strips are like chicken and waffles that were married and became one. Savory and crispy characteristics from their classic fried chicken, yet buttery and sweet like waffles drizzled with maple syrup. Yum! Yum! And Yum! Even though waffle battered chicken strips isn’t what I expected, I was pleasantly surprised. I’m glad I had the chance to try these before they were gone. They were a treat! Summary
