Best I've had was at Mrs Wilkes Dining Room in Savannah. A little old place where you share a table with strangers, you all eat what you're given, and you'd durned well better like it ... and I sure did!

I just polished off some Church's a few minutes ago!

They call it family style eating and it's a big hit with tourists-think they serve breakfast too? I've live 45 min from Mrs Wilkes and never been there,

Re: Best Fried Chicken???
Hmm burgers. Tell you what I like, Wendy's double Texas cheeseburger. Used to be $1, they've recetly gone up to $1.29 but it's still a good deal.
We just got a deep fat fryer, yet to try it out, so it's beer battered fish and chips night this weekend and I bet it probably makes pretty good fried chicken too!
Fish & Chips with lashings of salt and red malt vinegar... Ah can almost smell it already... I could almost be back down my old street standing in the chippy.... Hmm might even wrap them up in Newspaper and stand outside the British pub eating it - now there is a warped idea...
Oh, where did I get my chips? I got them over there at the Texas Fish n' Chip emporium - yes the chippy is about 2 blocks that way...
