A couple of weekends ago, husband and I had a date night. We seriously never know where to go when we’re out these days (just a couple of old farts). We found ourselves driving towards the fried chicken… yes…. the restaurant I have wanted to try FOREVVVEEEEEER. This place is known for it’s fried chicken. Why haven’t I ever found my way over there? There’s no excuse. Really. The Screen Door. It did not disappoint. Not kidding: the best fried chicken I’ve had to date (and, I’ve had a lot). I was so happy. My little heaven. I wish I would have brought a better camera… that chicken needs to be photographed.
If you’re going to wander over there… Don’t go in groups larger than 2. If you do, you will be waiting for A LONG time. There’s always a wait. OR, just get some food to go. I love that chicken. I wish it was right here in front of me… right meow.
Do you have a favorite fried chicken spot? I need to know… I must try all the fried chicken of the woooorld!
Happy Wednesday!

Yes Chelsey!! I definitely want to move towards a more plant based diet!! The eggs and dairy are going to be the hard part I think!
We eat a lot of eggs. And, I cannot give up cheese….. but, that's about it. Small steps. 🙂
Oh Chelsey, I absolutely love this! I've been reading your blog for about a year now and if there is one thing I know about you, it's that youlove fried chicken! (How could I forget, when I too, LOVE fried chicken!!) So, seeing this post, I know that must have been some truly amazing chicken… Like the fried chicken of dreams! Mmmm…
Well, hopefully you make it back there for more chicken, and soon!!!
<3 <3 <3
It was like it melts in your mouth…. I can't even… I need more….
they have great other southern food as well! The catfish, the mac n cheese, the greens, ect. Love that place!
I saw that! I'm afraid I may never try anything BUT the fried chicken… It's my weakness. 😉

Noooooo! SO jealous.
I watched Forks Over Knives last night (it feels wrong to be posting it here..heehee). It was great! My daughter has been telling me to watch it for awhile. You gave me the final push to do it!
I"m glad you did! How do you feel? Want to stop eating meat? 😉
Thanks! Now I need fried chicken and its only 8 in the morning!
Oh my- that sure looks good. I love finding places like that where I know I am in for something special.
We don't have any fried chicken places like that around here. So, I stick to making my mother-in-law's mother's homemade recipe in a cast iron skillet. It's really good!
Tell her I'm coming over!
Have a lovely day! 🙂
