NEW ORLEANS: Welcome to Tremé, New Orleans, and today we’re eating at Willie Mae’s Scotch House ( one of the most historical restaurants in New Orleans known for their amazing soul food and serving some of the best fried chicken in the United States!
Willie Mae’s Scotch House originally started in 1957, but it didn’t start as a full restaurant like it is today. Instead, it was a barbershop, salon, and a bar. With the bar customers came a demand for food, and soon their food became famous - so well known that the food took over and it was turned into a restaurant. In 2005, Ms. Willie Mae Seaton was awarded with a James Beard award for “America’s Classic Restaurant for the Southern Region.” This prestigious award opened new doors and really put Willie Mae’s Scotch House on the map across the United States. Ms. Willie Mae Seaton has since passed away, but her legacy of delicious food and caring for the community will never be forgotten.
I ordered a number of fried chicken plates all coming with different sides. Let me first tell you about the fried chicken - battered and deep fried. But the batter didn't feel too heavy or caky, and what I liked the most is that when you bite down, the entire skin crispiness doesn’t all come of, but rather stays on the chicken. The chicken was so moist and juicy and the flavor was salty with a hint of spice. Willie Mae’s Scotch House has been named the best fried chicken in America, and I’m not going to argue!
The sides were also delicious, I loved the beans and rice, the green beans and the fried okra. Amazing fried chicken, delicious Soul Food side dishes, and a preservation of New Orleans history and culture.
Price - $15 per plate

What KFC menu’s looked like the year you were born!

The story of #kfc is, at least at the beginning, also the story of #colonelsanders . Sanders was born in 1890, so he got a late start on life. He did a lot of different jobs before taking over a service station in Kentucky when he was 40 years old, in 1930. Things weren't always easy for Sanders over the years, but eventually, he became known for the #friedchicken he sold at that service station. The place became the first KFC, which was called Sanders Court & Cafe. Over time, it turned into a roadside attraction with room for 142 people to eat in. The main thing on the menu was, of course, fried chicken, and over the next ten years, Sanders continued to improve his recipe of 11 herbs and spices that are used to season the Original Recipe version of fried chicken that KFC still serves today. But that wasn't the only thing that made Sanders' chicken stand out. He also had a unique way of frying his chicken that made sure it was fried the same way every time and sped up the process so that workers could fry more chicken and serve more customers faster. Colonel Sanders finally found his way to success at the age of 62. He then decided to take his idea for a restaurant on the road and opened the first KFC franchise. But instead of telling his friends and neighbours in nearby Kentucky about the franchise opportunity, he went a little further away, to Utah, to open the first KFC franchise in Salt Lake City.
