A good change from hamburgers.... Review on Chick, fil, A

It all began with the Cathy brothers, Truett and Ben in a little suburb of Atlanta Georgia way back in 1946.....

Let's start by saying that their ''fried'' chicken is not really fried. Actually the chicken at Chik-Fil-A is pressure cooked in peanut oil. This gives their foods a better taste with less calories and fat.

There are a bunch of choices here too. For example:

The original Chik-Fil-A sandwich. A pressure steamed breast of chicken, coated with well seasoned bread crumbs, served on a toasted seeded bun with pickles.

Or get it deluxe with lettuce and tomatoes.

They also have some really good Wrap sandwiches too. They come with chunks of their good chicken, mixed with lettuce, cabbage, cheeses and spices. They roll this up in a fresh pita wrap, with just the right touch of their sauce. You can't beat it.

They also serve chicken nuggets or strips. Which come in boxes of 6, 8 or 12 (I believe).

And salads! They've got a lot of those too. A chicken caesar salad is fresh crisp romaine lettuce, with croutons and strips of chicken with a great caesar dressing. Or you can go for the garden salad, which is fresh mixed greens, tomato, cabbage and shredded carrots with chunks of chicken. This comes with your choice of dressings.

Or you can go for their fresh chicken salad sandwich. Chopped chicken mixed with a touch of mayonnaise and chopped celery, served on fresh white or wheat bread.

They also have something unique to a fast food restaurant. Piping hot fresh chicken veggie soup. Big chunks of chicken swimming in a veggie broth with pieces of carrot, celery and onion.

To go with your food, you can get an order of waffle fries (small, med, or lg) Some creamy and tangy cole slaw, shredded carrot and raisin salad(yummy) or a plain tossed salad.

The drinks are the usual fare. All coke products, plus iced tea or lemonade.

Some of the Chik-Fil_a restaurants also offer desserts like cheesecake, lemon pie and ice cream.

All of the Chik-Fil- restaurants here in South Florida that I have seen, have been in malls. Usually in the food courts where you have your choice of 10-20 or even 30 different restaurants. I chooseChik-Fil-A a lot because it's really good, and you can eat for under $6.00 (US). And your kids can get a kid's meal with a sandwich, fries, drink and a toy for $2.99 (US)

So why don't you give it a try next time you see a Chik-Fil-A. It's a great alternative to hamburgers.
