"This legendary chicken shop needs no introduction for long time visitors to White Hart Lane, positioned right opposite the stadium on the High Road. Run by the twin Tryfonos brothers since 1981, the fried chicken here defies all preconceived notions of what a ‘chicken shop’ usually is. The chicken itself is several notches higher in quality than any of the generic ‘Cottage’, Dixie’, ‘Tennessee’ or endless variants, the spicing and frying is deft, the chips bemusingly tasty, and the whole place is run with military efficiency — the queue snakes out of the door on match days — making for unerringly good fried chicken. £1.80 for a thigh and chips? Yes, Chick King is always worth a detour, even if a match isn’t being played." - Zeren Wilson
