There is a big difference between a scone and an American biscuit. Scones are made with heavy cream, whereas biscuits are made with buttermilk. Scones have sugar where biscuits do not. Scones are made more like a pastry where biscuits are more dense and buttery. While thinks may look alike, the ingredients and the process of how it's put together make all the difference in the world. I was a chef in the US military and have been cooking for over 50 years.
Thanks for sharing your expertise! The Biscuits were delicious.
Thank You, I've said it before, a biscuit is NOT a scone and that is a hill that I'll die on!
You tell them Brits to quit comparing biscuits to scones and just enjoy the damn biscuit!😆
So tires of the types and their 'oh, this is a scone' no you sausage. Its not hard and dry. Jesus. We're the best for a reason. Try to keep up.
I think your explanation of scone versus biscuit is over simplistic and not accurate. I've seen scones that are not made with cream and I definitely make my own biscuits without buttermilk. Buttermilk is not the usual ingredient it's a usual ingredient but before buttermilk milk is the most popular ingredient in a biscuit. A biscuit and a scone if not the same thing are related. There's very subtle differences between the two it's mostly comes down to treatment. A biscuit is is like a lighter version of a scone. Same ingredients same flavor profiles, but just some variations here and there. There is no one biscuit recipe either. Some biscuits are made with butter some biscuits are made with shortening some are made with oil. In fact my favorite biscuit that I make is made with cream and oil. Uses no butter at all no buttermilk.
Putting a little bit of honey on that biscuit takes it to a different level. LOL.
Yes... we need to try that next time! Thanks for the tip!
We would not have thought about pineapple! sounds delicious. thanks for the tip
This!
But she does not like honey!
@@thebritstryhoney on the biscuit and the chicken!
Popeye's purists would have included the red beans and rice as the biscuit pairing is sublime and makes it "Popeyes!"
We missed the red beans and rice but will put it on the list for next time we visit! thanks for the recommendation
I love the fries dipped in the red beans, sometimes i just get red beans and fries.
You definitely want to try the red beans and rice.@@thebritstry
red beans and rice!!! put a pack of Louisiana Hot Sause in that bad boy and dip everything into it!!!@@thebritstry
Exactly
Back in the 80s/90s popeyes buiscuts were more buttery.
It made the buiscuts less dry and more addictingly delicious.
In that case we need to find a time machine as they are still pretty good! Thanks for watching
That was back when they actually made them in the restaurants.
That's because no one is checking on them constantly. My first job was Popeyes back in 2000
they were amazing back then. I'd order two
I remember that. Those biscuits were the best back then - they’ve dried out and become slightly greasier post-1993.
I can't overstress the importance of the pickle. It adds an extra dimension to the flavor of the chicken sandwich. As for the mashed potatoes, you should get that at a non-fast food place. Our university has some good mashed potatoes but they hand-make it in their kitchen.
I completely agree! Pickles really do take the flavor of a chicken sandwich to the next level. And it's hard to beat homemade mashed potatoes! Thanks for the comment!
I hate pickles on a sandwich I always take them off😂😂😂
I hate the pickle personally. I think it ruins the dimension of a chicken sandwich.
Pickles...no thanks 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮😖
One of the cutest couples I've watched❤
Ah thank you!
Great reaction glad you enjoyed. Im 60 year old brother from america where did dipping fried chic in mashed potatoes come from not here and have never seen it been done . my family is huge. i know so many brothers never have i seen this in America from carolina to ny to cali ..
Haha! Well, I guess we've stumbled upon a hidden gem of a food combination! Who knew that dipping fried chicken in mashed potatoes could be so delicious? Thanks for sharing your thoughts! and Thank you for watching.
@@thebritstry yes thank you I didn't know this until you guys ..I'm almost ready to try it next time lol
I just wrote that too I think people were pulling their leg😂😂
I’ve never heard of it either outside of British tourist food tasting videos.
U gotta get the honey for the biscuits..it neutralizes the salty taste perfectly 😅😅😅💯🤣❤️🤤🤤
Next time! we definitely will! let us know if there is anywhere else you would recommend we should try!
I’m watching this and immediately wanting to get some Popeye’s Chicken from somewhere here in Los Angeles. I have only had their food about 3 or 4 times and it’s not bad at all. Chicken with potatoes and biscuits really resembles the basic “Thanksgiving dinner” and seems very fancy.
Extra well done fries seems like a Pro move! We want to try the 'secret menu' soon! Thanks for watching
As an American, your content is great. Keep it up guys!
Thank you for your support! We really appreciate it and it motivates us to continue creating great content.
I'm not a fan of dipping in the mash, either. It's fun watching you guys try all these chains, but you definitely need to get into the smaller om and pop spots that really do the best food. Not sure which area you are in, but each region of the US will have its own specialties.
We totally agree that smaller mom and pop spots often serve up the best food. We'll try to explore more of those in our future videos. If you can recommend and styles of food or dishes we should try, we can try our best to find some! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment!
@thebritstry Depends what state you're in. :D
Louisiana and Georgia are way better!!!
Watching you guys analyze your food is hysterical!
Lol! hopefully in a good way?
The conquering of the world continues one fast food rest. at a time!
😂🤣 We are trying!
The British conquering the world. 🇬🇧 😉
They've been there, done that.
It's old hat for them at this point. 😅
They've moved on. 😂
🇺🇸 😁
Popeyes is incredibly tasty but I prefer the spicy sandwich much more. The sauce is incredible. The fries are pretty good as well as long as they're warm. Probably top 3 drive-thru fries
Who else is in the top 3?
@@thebritstry my personal opinion is Chick-Fila waffle fries and Checkers. Best fast-food fries (not a drive-thru) would be Five Guys cajun fries
I'm so glad I found this channel now I can watch all your videos!
We are glad you stumbled upon our channel and Thank you for your kind words! We appreciate your support and I hope you enjoy watching all the videos on our channel. We have more to come!
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
I love that you all share the food so there isn't much food waste!!
Thanks for watching! Sharing is caring, especially when it comes to food.
The biscuit is covered in melted butter- so good!!!!
That sounds delicious! we have just tried that in New Orleans. ua-cam.com/video/rmEjJPpGoc4/v-deo.html
Will be tuning in!
Thank you for taking the time to tune in! Your support means a lot to us and I hope you enjoy the video!
I need this channel to blow up just so I can say that I was subscribed before 200 subs!

Thanks for watching!
New subscriber here love your guys dynamic it's cute and the food review was good too I can say I have dipped my food in the mash and gravy too. I liked it lol. Glad you guys liked Popeyes!!!!
We're glad to hear you're a fellow dipper. It's all about those extra flavor combinations, right? Thanks for watching and subscribing. We appreciate you taking the time to comment and glad you liked the review!
loved this!
I'm so happy you loved it! Thanks for watching!
I just found your channel and I find it delicious! Thank you for the fun videos!!! You definitely have a new subscriber in me!
Yay! Thank you! it means a lot to hear that.
You guys are amazing. I love your positive energy! You guys should try rally's if you are in the west/west coast there are a lot of things on the menu that I'm sure you would love to try!
Thank you for your kind words. We were not aware of Rally's and Thank you so much for the recommendation! Is there a specific burger we should order from Rallys??
I have many recommended items but ill only name a few. They are the garlic parmesean loaded fries, funnel cake fries(desert item), and smokey bbq bacon buford burger. They have quite a few menu items each are good their own ways id take a look at their website see what they have :)
East of the Mississippi River Rally's is called Checkers. Same food. @@thebritstry
I love watching all Brits coming here despising pickles. Then realizing it actually pairs well with certain things.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
You two are delightful!
Thank you for your kind words!
Thanks for the content y'all! My girlfriend and I were amazed y'all didn't have Popeyes in Europe. Hello from ATL GA USA.
Hi ATL! Thanks for watching!🤗
You guys are so lovely! I wish to find someone in my life. Thank you!
That is such a nice thing to say!
New subscriber, glad to see y'all try some Popeyes which started in my hometown of New Orleans and is a staple for Mardi Gras for us, and it's the best fried chicken fast food chain there is. If y'all ever make it to NOLA, check out the spicy chicken sammich at Blue Oak BBQ, it will blow y'alls' minds.
Thanks for the advice, NOLA is definitely on the bucket list of places we want to go to asap.. Blue Oak BBQ, will be on the list when we get there! Thank you for Subscribing!
@@thebritstry Well come soon, Mardi Gras season is just kicking in and it's gonna be a lot of fun till Feb 13th.
We enjoyed your post. And if I may be so bold, you guys are a very good looking couple❗
Thank you so much for your kind words! and thank you for giving us a chance.
Definitely get the fries and the fish sandwich next time! You guys are very entertaining! Just subscribed
Fries and fish sandwich? That's the perfect combo! We'll make sure to try it next time and let you know if it lives up to the hype. Thanks for Subscribing!
I hate that the fish sandwich only comes around once and awhile in my area
I always get the spicy chicken sandwich. Never dip anything into the mashed potatoes.
Nice video. I think a lot of us would like to hear how your experiences compare to those in the UK.
Thanks for the idea! We will try to integrate this is future videos
Y'all missed out when the limited Truff Spicy Mayo on the Chicken Sandwich. It was incredible!
We didn't know about that! thanks for sharing the knowledge.
Bang on with how restaurants get their fried chicken so juicy---a lot of places brine it. I used to work at a Carolina style fried chicken place, and we brined our chicken overnight in a combination of salt, water, and apple cider vinegar. Made it really juicy when it was cooked, and added some good flavor.
I really appreciate you sharing this tip! It's always great to hear from someone with firsthand experience. We might try that at home. Thank you!
"Raising Canes ".. They serve fresh chicken. Chicken fingers, Crinkle cut fries, Texas Toast, Coleslaw, a drink and The Sauce. They added a sandwich to the menu .... They do one thing... Chicken .... Great chicken.
We have never been! thanks for the recommendation!
I absolutely love your accent 🤗🤗
😊 Thank you for watching and commenting!!
Dipping biscuits in mash potatoes is definitely a southern thing my whole family does it and we also dip the chicken in it too alot of people unfortunately can't cook chicken that well. And it's dry so dip chicken in mash potato &gravy covers the dryness and is yummy I'm from Louisiana and people dip biscuits all the time. Love to eat chicken with hot sauce or pickled jalapeños
Thanks for sharing!
Yes you are right, they brine it. I love the sandwich. It is my fave of all the chicken sandwiches I have had.
Thank you for sharing your love for the sandwich! and thanks for watching
as an American (southerner actually) dipping your biscuit in the mashed taters and gravy IS NOT A SIN... matter of fact we do it all the time biscuits rolls and even cornbread are good for getting the last of that gravy goodness
Thank you for sharing your love for this southern delicacy! It's always great to hear from fellow biscuit-dipping enthusiasts. We need to try the cornbread next time!
Small tip that was told to me when ordering the mashed potatoes and gravy and red beans and rice. In my opinion it's okay. but if you ask for the Cajun sparkles seasoning pack and put one in sprinkle one pack in your mashed potatoes and gravy and one pack in your red beans and rice it's a game changer. Please try it it surprised me. You can also sprinkle it on your chicken so good
Thanks for the pro-move tip! we will give that a try next time.
Lol, first time seeing you guys , too funny!
Thanks for watching!🤗
Pickles and chicken is a fire combo. You haven't lived until you've been to a carnival and had a chicken on a stick. Just crispy chicken on a skewer with pickles and omg!
We will have to try that in the future! Thanks for sharing.
My #1 rule of fast food - always use their phone app to order, they usually have good money saving deals/rewards
Great suggestion for the future! as this was the first time we have been so we wanted to get the popular items that the staff would recommend.
Oh man you missed out by not getting the red beans and rice! Soooo good
We will try them next time! thanks for sharing
Dipping that biscuit in gravy is about as American as you can get. You belong to us now!
Is it? I know no one who does it. male teenagers?
@@ClarkJ2265 Well I know plenty that do. 🤷🏾♂️
you need to try placing some of the chicken meat with some skin inside the biscuit (halve it first), like a sandwich, OMG, it's so good
Wow! That sounds amazing! now we are hungry! Thanks for sharing the tip!
damn I been eating Popeyes for decades and never tried that, thanks for the idea
@@impudentdomain works very well with thigh meat and skin Mmmm!
I love that they share 😂😂😂🤗🤗
Thank you! Sharing is caring, and I'm glad you appreciate it too.
Their wings are great. Let them sit in the to go bag for 30 minutes or so and steam. The traditional hot and the sweet and spicy are both excellent.
We will try this when we go back!
Pickle makes the sandwich tis crazy! LOL GReat job!
Thanks for watching!
you guys are very fit for food reviewers.
Lol! Thank you for the compliment! We love exploring new foods.
Thank you folks….. love you to the moon,,, you show appreciation ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your kind words!
1:19 That is ABSOLUTELY NOT a sin whatsoever, neither is dipping the chicken tenders or sandwich in the mash and gravy. We do it ALL THE TIME. Well done.
Thanks for watching and for your support! we are glad we are not the only ones who dip!😀
The thing about Popeyes is you have to eat it on-site. If it gets cold, it gets nasty real quick. When it's hot and fresh, it's heavenly.
Thanks for the advice! The burger was nice! and the biscuit was also delicious!
Should try Cafe Brazil in Dallas - definitely the El Gordo Crepes. Also, deep dish at Giordano’s in Chicago.
Thanks for the ideas! we will definitely try and visit those places in the future.
I like their mac and cheese over the mashed potatoes. Their shrimp is really nice as well. Keep the vids coming.
Thanks you for the suggestion, we didn't know the shrimp was good! we will try that next time.. We have just uploaded a new video on shrimp and grits, if you have time to check it out!
@@thebritstry I
I don't know why youtube suggested this, but I think I like you
Thanks for giving it a chance.. we appreciate you watching and commenting!
Cajun sparkle goes well with the mashed potatoes and gravy and the red beans and rice. Gotta ask for it at the counter.
Thanks for the the tip! next time we will ask for it.
I love how he had to correct it to 'sandwich.' A chicken burger in America is something like the McChicken from McDonald's. It's ground chicken formed into a patty rather than a single piece of chicken like this sandwich from Popeye's.
We call them chicken burgers in the UK, which is why we kept making the mistake of calling them burgers, and not sandwiches!
I had one yesterday, the chicken sandwich, it’s delicious. To me I really like chicken sandwiches or chicken burgers as you say.
So good! Your making us hungry!!
I love to hear you guys call a chicken sandwich a “burger” 😭😭😭
😀
I hate hearing them call a chicken sandwich Burger! It's just like me saying "I'm going to have me a pork chop Burger tonight." Anything's not a burger but anything can be a sandwich. And they don't sell any Gourmet Burgers of any kind at Popeye's they only serve chicken.
never heard of dipping chicken drum sticks in the potatoes and gravy but I have heard of dipping the chicken tenders in it and lmaooo you guys taking a bite of the chicken sandwich and passing it back and forth and I have to recommend checking out non franchise and non fast food restaurants, the local restaurants are so much better and healthier and those represent what a lot of Americans eat, fast food is usually a weekend food or in a rush food.
We appreciate your comment and recommendations! We are trying to get to some non-franchise and non-fast food options for healthier and more authentic dining experiences. I'll definitely make sure to try out some local restaurants! Let us know if there is any types of food we should try! Thanks for watching
My first time watching your videos, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I'm sure you've seen by now that most people don't dip chicken or biscuits from Popeyes in their mashed potatoes and gravy. But next time you go to Popeyes, get sachets of honey or jelly for the biscuit. If you want to try fried chicken and gravy, check out Jollibees. That is what they are known for. You're both beautiful people! Enjoy your food journey!
Thank you for your kind words they mean a lot to us. We'll definitely take your suggestions on board and hopefully report back soon! Thanks for watching!
We have just upload a review of jollibee! ua-cam.com/video/jRtrYF8CNHY/v-deo.html Let us know if there is anywhere else we should try?
I've heard people rave over Popeyes for so long, but alas, I shall never know the delectable flavors. I've been a vegetarian for twenty-five years, but some things are so very tempting...
Kudos to you for being a vegetarian for so long! Thank you for watching.
Hello its Marcella again , In Louisiana you can try a place called Sweet Potatoes its off the path of where most people go so, ask someone where the restaurant is located. There is also a restaurant called Diggy's. Or Dizzy's
Thanks for the recommendation we are heading to New Orleans very soon! watch out for the up coming video of our trip!
Cajun Rice is the best thing on the menu. Some may still do the fried chicken livers with a packet of Cajun Sparkle to sprinkle over them. If you like chicken livers, they're pretty good.
We didn't know at the time we went but we recently tried it in New Orleans! here is the video if you have time to watch it. ua-cam.com/video/waLcMsuOj40/v-deo.html
Two other great chicken sandwiches are Wendy's Classic and Arby's Classic. The Wendy's classic has lettuce and tomatoe with mayo, while the Arby's has lettuce and mayo but you must add Arby's Sauce (their take on a cross between a BBQ and Hot sauce).
The first trick is to find a good Popeyes , sometimes it can be hit or miss..
But when ya get a good one, it's devine.
Afraid I'm gonna gain weight watching you two try alll the goodies ... I watch an episode or two and then I'm starving! ha!!!
Lol! us too!!! 😂😀
Popeyes originates in Louisiana. While in the USAF I was stationed in central Louisiana. There were salt pill dispensers every where to counter dehydration. this was the early 1980s. So, yes, food from the south is salty.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's always fascinating to hear stories from different parts of the country.
The pickles are a tribute to cold American chicken salad sadnwiches...look that up
Wow! I didn't know that! Thanks for the information and for watching......
Spicy chicken sandwich with extra spicy mayo and extra pickles is amazing.
Popeyes 20+ years ago was a totally different experience. I used to get it in a super high traffic one in Long beach and the place would be like a party until am hours. The food was so so good. now its a lot more like a slightly different kfc.
Thanks for the feedback! where else should we try?
My favorite thing from Popeyes is the 5 piece spicy chicken tender with blackened ranch for a dipping sauce. Then as a side I get the Cajun fries.
Thank you for sharing your favorite Popeyes order! It's always great to hear what others enjoy from the menu. we'll have to give your combo a try!
They also have a blackened chicken sandwich, which is my preferred option.
Thank you.. We keep meaning to go back and try Popeyes again! we will add the blackened chicken sandwich to our list of things to try.
At Popeyes, the spicy chicken sandwich is still the best thing on their menu. Highly recommend the next time you go. Most of their sides are nothing special, but the fries and biscuits are good enough that you don't really need anything else. Their mac & cheese is hella greasy (you'll see the cheese oil once you get to the bottom of the container), the potatoes are just okay even when they are mashed properly, and the red beans & rice are pretty bland (in my opinion).
Also, in America, the term "burger" refers to any sandwich that uses minced meat. Since Popeyes uses actual pieces of chicken instead of griding it up into a flat patty, it's called a chicken sandwich and not a chicken burger. I think people in the UK and Australia get it confused and think it's called a burger based on the bun, but that's not the case at all.
Thank you so much for recommending the spicy chicken sandwich at Popeyes! We can't wait to try it out. Might be time for another visit😉. Your insights on the sides are really helpful too! Thank you!
So what’s a Sloppy Joe 😂
@@LikeSpee A sloppy joe is a burger, just a named type of burger.
@@LikeSpeeSloppy Joe isn't a patty. So it's a sandwich
@@tecianicole I didn’t even have to say wrong answers only 😄 The only correct answer is “an abomination” 😂
If you guys are traveling, check out Terry Black’s bbq in Texas you’ll fall in love with the brisket
We will add this to the list of places we visit when we head to Texas, thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks for the suggestions! We have just been to Terry Blacks in Austin Texas! Our Terry Blacks BBQ video will be uploaded this afternoon!
I love Popeyes chicken but I usually get the shrimp box that comes with a biscuit or 2 & I open the biscuits & make shrimp biscuits with it so good. I don't ever dunk my chicken in my mashed potatoes but I will sometimes dip it in just some gravy, no mash. Their chicken sandwich is really good & Chick-fil-A marinates their chicken in pickle juice which makes it tender & juicy. My brother n law worked for Chick-fil-A all though high school & college. So I'm sure Popeyes probably marinates theirs too. They have a good breakfast also like most of our fast foods. Chick-fil-A, Taco Bell & Hardee's( Biscuits N Gravy with gravy on the side with hash rounds that sit in the gravy is really good or try one of each kind of biscuit) has really good breakfasts.
Popeyes side dishes aren't very good, the red beans & rice is OK. Popeyes food has a little heat to it because it's a Cajun( New Orleans Louisiana)fast food restaurant.
They have good sweet tea which u should try half sweet tea half lemonade called an Arnold Palmer which is good that cuts the sweet tea that's really sweet. I like sweet tea with a lemon wedge added to it.
Thanks for sharing! Your shrimp biscuits idea is genius! Who needs just a regular biscuit when you can level it up! Thanks for all the other recommendations we will definitely try some of those when we next visit. We haven't tried a Taco Bell yet which might be a good place for us to try!
Popeyes and Chester's are probably the best.
You almost lost a finger 😂waving it around
😆😆😆
There are Popeyes in the UK. I forgot where, but you have them. Try googling to see if any are in your area.
I heard Popeyes isn't as good outside of Louisiana. I haven't had it outside of Louisiana, so I don't know if that's true lol.
I do think the spicy used to be spicier.
I like their biscuits, but they're a bit dry and hard for my preference. If you could have that flavor with the consistency of Church's or Cracker Barrel biscuit, that would be ideal.
Thanks for the recommendations. We believe there are a few Popeyes in the UK but the menu may be slightly different. We will maybe try it when we go back to the UK for a holiday, we might try it out to compare to the USA version.
I order the coleslaw and put it on the spicy chicken sandwich. It’s so good
That sounds like a pro-move we need to try! Let us know if there is anything else we should try? thanks for sharing
Must also try the Chik-fil-a sandwich.
We did! and it didn't go to well. ua-cam.com/video/2hZEt4C-s7Q/v-deo.html Let us know what we should try from Chick fil a
Aiiiii, you're doing it all wroooong 🥺
Got to start somewhere😀😀 Thanks for watching
This is actually....cute. I'm subscribing. Red beans and rice or dirty rice is bomb. I'm in the south but yet to see dipping in the potatoes.
We really appreciate your support and for subscribing to our channel! We completely missed the rice and beans side but next time we will definitely try it! We are actually in New Orleans this weekend and will report back with a video soon. Thank you!
Try Fry the Coop. Best fried chicken sandwich outside of Nashville in Chicago.
Thanks for the advice! we will check out Fry the Coop next time we are
Love that chicken from Popeyes! Not a fan of other fried chicken establishments.
Try churches chicken they usually located in urban areas and the honey butter biscuits are the best biscuits i ever had.
I notice being Filipino, that we only like the gravy when it comes to dipping our fried chicken FROM ANYWHERE. lol
We will try an get the gravy separately next time. thanks for the tip
Wholesome.
Thanks!
You should’ve gotten the Red Beans & Rice. That one is good.
We recently tried Red Beans & Rice in New Orleans, Here is the video if you have time ua-cam.com/video/waLcMsuOj40/v-deo.html
When I first had Popeye's in the 70's living in Georgia, they had regular, spicy and extra spicy. I now live in New Hampshire and they don't have extra spicy 😢.
The extra spicy version sounds like it would be a winner!
You should try the chicken strips with blackened ranch
Thanks for the advice, we will check them out next time we try Popeyes, Is there any other restaurants we should try?
those popeye's biscuits are on another level
We really enjoyed them but we have also recently tried Biscuits in New Orleans, Here is the video if you have time to watch. ua-cam.com/video/rmEjJPpGoc4/v-deo.html
The spicy tenders are the bomb 💣
Not yet ! next time for sure.
I would love to see you come to Los Angeles and try some middle eastern food :)
Thanks for the suggestion! We would love to try that! do you have any recommendations where we should try?
@@thebritstry Would love to see you try Persian food, if you have not already. There is Darya in Santa Monica and Sadaf in the Valley. There are a few famous OLD sandwich and Diner restaurants near downtown as well. If you make it out here, let me know and I can give you specific dishes to try as well. There is a reason Persians have nicknamed this city Tehran-geles :) so I would recommend those first.
Best wishes.
You guys totally missed out! The mac and cheese is awesome!
Good to know! Next time we will try it! We will hopefully head back there soon to try some other items
Apparently Brits love to dip. I hope you find your way to some really good guacamole and salsas. The border states will have the best most likely, though Seattle and right here in Florida has some good spots. I'm sure wherever there are healthy Mexican diasporas, there will be at least one Mom and Pop place that will blow you away. I've not had much authentic tex-mex. I've had stuff elsewhere called tex-mex. But then there are philly cheesesteaks all around the country too. And some are really crap. I WILL say that California is a paradise of Mexican food. San Diego had like a hundred little 'Roberto's' all over, and for a good price, they were outstanding. Carne Asada w guac seems pretty California to me. And it mostly just gets better from there. Tacos al Pastor is a must-try.
Thanks for the food recommendations! I can't wait to explore these delicious options.
I like when Popeyes brings out the Ghostpepper wings.
we didn't know about them!
@@thebritstry it's a limited time item that Popeyes would bring out; kind of like McDonald's does the McRib sandwich. Ghostpepper (#7 ranked hottest pepper)wings are a sauce less wing they are fried like the regular & spicy chicken except it has dried crush Ghostpepper chilli in the chicken batter. I wish they would leave it on the menu.
You need to find a Jollybee! Their chicken is sooo good!
Oops. Jollibee.
We have just uploaded this video from jollibees ua-cam.com/video/jRtrYF8CNHY/v-deo.html

Sweeties, the spicy chicken sandwich from Whataburger is the best 🙂
Thanks for the recommendation! We will have to try Whataburger next time we see one.
@@thebritstry 🙂 You will love it
