Dixy Chicken

Aaaah, Dixy Chicken. Or is that (Dixy) Chicken? It is always important to emphasise parentheses correctly, especially where Fried Chicken is concerned.
Original birthplace of the Dixie Chicks, it is believed they once crawled out of the primordial polyunsaturated slime contained within the deep fat fryer.
Based in upmarket, trendy Birmingham, it is a wonderful little establishment, with a friendly and low-key clientele. It may often be seen on television, its popularity is so great - usually 'Booze Britain' or 'Police Camera Action'. Many a chicken drumstick has gracefully flown from the hand of a drunken punter into the face of an approaching policeman. I'm sure they were most appreciative - I know I would be.
The Fried Chicken itself is a taste sensation - and don't even consider leaving without a heavenly corn-on-the-cob. Only the nuggets let down the side - instead of a golden brown coating they featured a furry sludge. 7.04%/10
