Mad for Chicken customers keep going back for more. Some might say they’re obsessed. They’ll tell you they are up-front. Why? This particular place has become a favorite spot for anyone that loves soy garlic chicken – though there are plenty of other spices if this one’s too hot. First, a bit of education. MFC’s secret sauce comes in two unique flavors, soy garlic, and spicy garlic. Crispy and crunchy on the outside, yet so juicy on the inside. The wings are considered amazing, and the go-to foodies will agree. MFC prides itself on having the best-fried chicken, with a crunch more satisfying than anything else. The signature chicken is made with a thin layer of flour, double-fried, and then each piece is individually hand-brushed with the secret sauce.
