Lots of activity in front of Tom's Chicken Shack today! If you are this close you better go get some of that Amazing Chicken! Tom's is an institution here in Bartow and can't be missed.
First time stopping in and immediately noticed how steep the prices were 😳, but I ordered anyway (bc treat yo’self, ya know?). I love fried gizzards and thought I’d try theirs. The gizzards were tender but could have been a bit more seasoned in my opinion. There were also a lot tough pieces which sucks because they’re inedible and included in the weight. I could understand getting 2 or 3 tough pieces in a 1/2lb but there were quite a few. When raw you can usually tell...
I am 42 years old, and a FL native, spending a great deal of time in GA and the Carolinas as a youn'g. When I travel, I look for 3 things:

1. Fried Chicken (not counting wings; gimme dark meat or a well fried breast please and thank you)
2. Shrimp 'n' Grits
3. Biscuits n gravy

I am in no way suggesting I've tried all the fried chicken in the South (I hope to accomplish this one day).

But...DAMN...
