So delicious and perfectly cooked!
Really small place and there’s 4 tables in the restaurant so best plan to take away instead of dining in. There is also no air-conditioning so depending on the time of year, it can get pretty stuffy and you also have to deal with the frying from the open kitchen. Having said that, the chicken leg quarters are really soft and juicy. The spicy sauce is very good. Try the wings with the spicy seasoning.
