    Heard good things about this place so decided to g Heard good things about this place so decided to give it a try, prices are a cut above the normal fast food fried chicken joints, averaging close to 10 ringgit per piece.

This set of 5 piece is about 53.95 ringgit and comes with 2 drinks, a coleslaw, and Cajun fries.

There's 5 or 6 spicy levels to choose from with hot being close to middle of it. There's only thighs and drumsticks and the pieces are rather huge in size.

Piping hot, crunchy skin, juicy meat, and those spicy powder does carry some kicks. Not as herbal as KFC, but does have it's own robust flavor and tasted fresher, if that make sense.

Oh the fries were pretty good too. Worth a visit.
