chowking's new fried chicken ( chinese style): A review( to eat or not to eat)

I have decided to write about every restaurant that i will go to from now on. I feel its a calling, a need to review the restaurants in the Philippines. 

There are very few realistic reviews regarding certain Philippine products, some are just created by the company themselves. it would be best to learn from someone who is not connected with any of this companies--in order to get honest reviews regarding products. The Filipinos are not to keen on checking the pros and cons of certain restaurants, they just eat and forget the art of eating and keeping score on what is good and what matters.(although not all of course) here is a review for the middle class and even the very choosy ones (the feeling elite)

My very first food review for a fast food chain restaurant is chowking ( May 31, 2011)

I am just alone in my apartment, basically I would hate to cook and just eat all of the food by myself. well, i am not technically alone I have a boyfriend he is just working an hour away from the city and we see each other as often as we could(NIk)(wink wink). I have a pet cat named Mirmo aka punggoy( as called by my boyfriend- punggoy, meaning pusa na unggoy-a cat who is at the same time a monkey( funny really)

well lets just say my cat mirmo is not fond of eating chicken, and is not to keen on going out with me (hehehehe) 

So, i basically decided to eat at chowking. I was enticed by the advertisement of this particular Chowking fried chicken chinese style- they say that it is a one of a kind chicken and tastes different. well what is my verdict

The pay seng judgment

I ate at chowking abanao branch...and frankly I had to wait for 15 minutes just to sample their product. The chicken is worth 69 peso without a drink, but if you will have a cola or a pineapple juice it would cost around 79.

Honestly, if you are not patient like me( because I have all the time in the world) waiting would probably suck. 15 minutes is way too long for a fastfood chain- well good thing though the serves and cashier of Chowking abanao are courteous and they were very pleasant when i asked for a service water and extra extra chili sauce.

Ok. back to the verdict on the chicken. it was tasty. but it was normal, it tasted normal- i can recreate the taste, it is just  a normal friend chicken, your mother probably cooked a better tasting chicken than this. Chickenjoy of jollibee is way more special. But the chicken is not bad, it stays true to the promise of crunchiness- it could have been better though if it were a bit spicy and if the serving of the rice was bigger as well as the chicharap. more servings. for it to be worth it.

I dont think it would be a big hit, compared to other Chowking products, it is a normal chicken i give it a B (grade)- more like 85%. It definitely tastes better than KFC chicken, but i dont think that the gravy is noteworthy.

will i order it again?probably note, it is 69 peso, i can get a better deal at jacks restaurant in session. The good thing though about Chowking is the quality service, they allow you to remove the drinks in the menu if you prefer water and they will not charge you for it unlike Jollibee.

will i recommend it for you? well to children yes, i would recommend it to picky children who only like to eat chicken while their parents prefer lomi, mami and other chowking specials.
