Goddamn there's like only one Popeyes in Minneapolis

Its three blocks off the bus route to work though, so maybe I'll grab some for lunch someday

As someone who grew up in New Orleans, the idea some of you don't have a Popeyes near you just does not compute.

Oh, and I will be all over these on Monday.

This sounds like Colonel Crispies in Japan from KFC. Those are tenders dipped in tempura batter and they're so fucking good, lol.

I worked for a pub where we used tempura on chicken strips. Far superior!
We made them with beer too which was kind of a nightmare. Try pouring two giant bags of dust into a 2 gallon bucket of brown ale.

MY JESUS

I know what I'm having for lunch this week!

Funny enough, I told my coworkers about this on Friday and they looked at me like such a thing couldn't possibly exist.

I want to go, but the Popeyes near me always has lines out to the street. Is the shit that fucking good?
Yeas, yes it is. Have you followed the fried chicken wars on GAF?
Had them yesterday (Popeyes near me just said fuck it and started selling them early), they were amazing.
Fuck man. I can't wait to get off work tomorrow and eat the fuck out of DAT CHICKEN N N ZZZZ
 
Had them a few days ago (Friday)

They were just okay. I'm used to the regular batter in the normal strips, so the texture was a little weird.

The maple dipping sauce wasn't that great (I opted for sweet heat for maximum sweetness taste) and they're actually a lot smaller (YMMV) than regular strips, which are longer and have a lot more chicken.

For $5 it's still not a bad deal (although you have to buy a drink separately, which I found out the hard way and it's kind of stupid), but I'd rather stick with the regular 5 pc strip, cajun fries and biscuit meal.

...

Dammit now I'm hungry just typing this.
