    A federal donuts fucking feast hits the spot on this snow day 
    You just made up my mind to order fried chicken from this Redcrest place.
    Yeah I’d like to check that spot out 
    Ordered the whole bird with two biscuits and a side (fries) was about $22. Fried chicken was on point, but I don't think you can fuck up fried chicken. Biscuits were tiny but super delicious, fries portion seemed pretty small for serving at least two people.

    I think we've talked about this before - CFC isn't $22 and it's just as good.
    I have strong fried chicken opinions. One, it shouldn’t be ordered by the whole or half bird. By the number of pieces only. Federal donuts realized this and at least renamed how they have things listed on the menu.

    Also, while I agree fried chicken can be easy, hipsters are kinda killing it. So many places opening up claiming to have great chicken and the batter is either bland or it’s cooked to shit.

    Fed nuts gets a pass in my mind because they are the OG and have the seasonings. Their chili glaze is amazing. That said, give me 3 pieces and a beef patty from crown fried chicken over the majority of hipster stuff any day. Somehow coco bread hasn’t made its way to philly to go with beef patties though.

    KFC, Popeyes and bo jangles...you can’t go wrong 

    Chicken, mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese and beef patties from anything along the lines of crown or any kennedy’s will beat 99.99% of new chicke spots 

    And speaking of beef patties, I saw a sign in a store front for a Jamaican bakery coming soon in the Italian market recently.

    That's the cheesesteak that Bourdain was pimping a while back.  Never had it.

    You fuckers get a gift from NJ.
    The pizza place that I rave about on the Pizza Thread over in Haddonfield (Angelos) was known to be taking over the space from Sarcone's Deli after it closed.  (Owner's wife is a Sarcone)  They intended to keep their Haddonfield place open.
    Found out today it closed.  Mother-fucker!
    They hope to open up in April at the 9th street location.

    This blows, for me, but I think you guys will like it.  I know the place is small but you want to eat the pizza right out of the oven. 
    Order and eat in....get the Upside Down Jawn and Diavlo sammy.  Both are smack your momma delicious.

    Dammit.

    There's a pizza thread?

    If Cliff knows it's somehow related to Sarcone's then I think he's out.

    Ha, I recall that he didn't like their bread.  (Which is sad - that bread is fucking amazing)

    I heard there was a pizza place going in there. Not sure I knew the details. Looking forward to checking it out.

    to clarify my sarcones stance. The bread is generally way too hard, especially for a sub. For a hot sandwich like roast pork or to dip in gravy, it’s perfect and I like it a lot. An Italian sub with a sarcones bread is like biting into a rock.

    No idea. Once he starts talking Italian meats and cheeses on a roll he turns into a goddamn mush mouth.
