Gone but not Forgotten

Green Curry and Half Chicken

20190410_194947.jpg


Thought Chix Shack had fried chicken then realized I was wrong. Started with some green curry and plopped it on top of some coconut rice. If you get normal rice then you are not living life. Green curry had a decent flavor with a healthy portion of vegetables but lacked a little protein. The half chicken was pretty mediocre, think rotisserie chicken but a little sweeter with a touch of spice. The skin was flavorful but the chicken itself was underwhelming. The tangy sauce that they give you with the chicken was constantly used to help the dish out and it pretty much saved this dish.
Located on 109st and just north of Jasper. Chix Shack is a small restaurant with a Chinatown feel and price, right in the heart of downtown. Service was fast and friendly and a good option for the area.

This review is 4 years old btw. Crazy how condensed my reviews were but this was out of laziness and IG’s character restrictions. Just the worst.

Since this review, I’ve learned that Chix Shack is now permanently closed. This is sad to hear as whenever I went they always had people inside eating. Tribulations of being in a prime location.
