"The fried chicken! Great example of how it should be done. This is 2nd behind Hardisons(Jamesville, NC) but best FC in the area. Kills Wades and Hub City. My only issue at all is no "dark meat." Legs are only on Sundays and they don't do thighs. This is quite a shame, but ill take the breast. It was tender and moist. Came with 2 veggies (I got corn and rice/gravy) and I'd recommend both."
