"Part of the national fried-chicken craze, this North Carolina–based chain operates across 12 states (including North and South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama) and attracts a fiercely loyal, vocal regional following from Virginia to Tennessee. Though largely unheard of in places like California and New York, fans insist you’re missing out, praising its fried chicken as true 'royalty' and 'a little piece of heaven'—one devotee even says they would choose it over any other fast-food option. Smaller than the national giants but with passionate devotees, it inspires strong regional devotion." - Eater Video
