Chicken Restaurant

We went out with Lori and Dior last week to eat at 'The Chicken Restaurant', it went a little like this...

We walk in to the restaurant greeted in Dutch...
"UHHH... do you speak english?"
"half chicken each?"
"uhhh... do you have a menu?"
"typically half chicken for each person"
"okay? we'll have 4 half chickens then"

Dinner served... YUP. we each have a half of a chicken in front of us

"tradition is eat with your hands"
"What?"
"No fork, eat with your hands"
The boys... "okay!"
Lori says..."No one else is eating with their hands?? can we please have a fork?"
the man looks a little sad, but hands us each a fork...

Good thing Lori was there. This wasn't no KFC eat with your hands bucket of chicken... this was a half chicken, rotissery style, aka you would be clawing at it to eat it because you don't pick up a rotissery chicken and take a bite of it.

DELICIOUS. definitely. WORTH IT. yes.


(I am trying to forget the mans horror movie-long-dirty-gross-and-most-unappetizing fingernails that touched my chicken with no gloves... and the fact that when jared went back the next day for more (yes he loved it that much) that the man licked his fingers after dishing up Jared's sauce AND handling raw chicken.... I'm trying to forget this because it WAS the best meal we have had at a restaurant since we got here and also because lori hates when i mention this)
