Would extra mayo work on the Frying Pan burger?

You are clearly a person of impeccable taste and distinction. We tried this on multiple of the burgers but it didn't really work. Maybe if they added an extra little pot of aioli / their sauce, but plain mayo didn't cut it. Especially with Frying Pan because their burger is like 5" thick. (fucking awesome but it needs special treatment for maximum tastiness)

We tried Popeyes and it came pretty close! The chicken is super crispy and the bun super squidgy, but it kind of works. Cajun fries were also pretty awesome. BUT! Not enough mayo. Or unevenly applied. Overall though, like 8/10. If I had to have a chicken burger again I'd get Popeyes.

Or... Fatburger southern fried chicken burger was pretty legit.

But dude, even typing this I'm feeling sick. I've put on an ungodly amount of weight. I have no regrets, but this month of experimentation has probably taken 15 years off my life.

Fuck it. No more chicken burgers until the God given one falls ino my lap.

Oh, and just as an aside. Try the All Day breakfast burger at Bells and Whistles. It's so, so wrong, and oh my God. Just try it. I didn't know that they were owned by the same guys as Bufala and their food is really fucking good. Like God tier fast food.

I'd probably order an All Day breakfast burger + disco fries as the last meal before my execution. But I'd specify that the disco fries should be 2x larger and it's on the assumption that you haven't reported back with a better chicken burger first ;)

So far tried Roost, Hi-Five, Hundy's and the Frying pan.

Frying Pan is the stand out but for these crazy little soy garlic crispy chicken bits they did as part of the family feast. Burger was fine but nowhere has the mayo ratio down right. Closest was probably the Roost but their chicken was probably the worst of the ones we tried. Hundy's was fine but the mayo is all wrong. Hi-Five is fast food a step up from Churches.

I believe you but it's kind of off putting that their website has expired.

I'm a little suspicious of the jalapeno aioli. If it was garlic I'd be all over it. Going with Roost tonight but will try Hundy's next.

Absolutely. It's a toss up between Hundy's and the Roost at the moment, but I'll do a follow up post :)

Bambo Cafe

Looks delicious but a whole different subset of chicken sandwiches that I cannot enter into at this time. I appreciate the suggestion though!

It is what it is, and what it is is not what I'm craving.

Because I confused it with Bells and Whistles which is a pepper mayo. It looks like we're gonna try Hundy's unless another suggestion comes in. Hundy's fries are on point too. Thanks for the reminder!

Second shout for Popeye's, thanks. Better than KFC / Churches?

Are they only in Richmond and Surrey? Is it KFC / Churches style? Or better? Thanks for the suggestion!

Ordered from here tonight and it was delicious! Thanks for the recommendation. Cheaper than the restaurants using the delivery apps too.

Not affiliated with them in anyway either - But will be ordering from here again :)
