Food and Drink GO MF'ING CHICKEN GO!!!! - Page 5

**gblowfish** · 07:13 PM

One of my favorite foods is chicken tenders. But only if they're done right. I like em big, fresh, hot tender and juicy. I have to give major props to a chicken joint on the Kansas side called GO CHICKEN GO. Stopped there on the way back from Olathe tonight. I"ve only been there one other time and that was a couple years ago. Their three piece chicken tenders meal is only around 8 bucks. The tenders are HUUUUGE, and fresh and juicy and just plain wonderful. The sides are OK, nothing outstanding, but the chicken RULES. And they make this stuff called G Sauce that is a funky dipping sauce. It's hard to describe, it's like salsa for chicken strips. It's hot but not stupid hot. It would also be great on scrambled eggs or over a chicken burrito. GO CHICKEN GO should go more over towards Eastern Jackson County. They'd kick KFC's ass, and would give Stroud's a run for their money on chicken tenders. I've had Gus' Famous Chicken Tenders too, and Go Chicken Go kicks their ass all over the parking lot. Go....Chicken.....GO. Any of you CPers fans?

I have only been to the 51st & Troost location, which used to be a Brown's Chicken. I grew up just a few blocks from there, just east of Paseo, near the high school.

I've had a salad there, and it was awesome. I don't know why, I just did. That being said I sampled the Portabella fries and the chicken strips and they were very good.

It's not close so it's been a while, but I'd 100% do it again.

But right now, I've gotta try this Go Chicken Go place...

Their gravy looks like I blew a dehydrated nut over a bed of mashed potatoes. I'm like "nah" just looking at them.

I can only remember ever eating gizzards there, and I lived in Olathe 2 minutes from that place on Harrison. I'm surprised it never grew more and expanded. I wish it had expanded...right down to Tulsa OK so I can get some god damn gizzards with hot sauce.

The lime always looks so good, but it does nothing for me.

Yeah, the mashed potatoes are kind of a weak effort. They looked like instant potatoes, and the gravy is this funky yellow stuff that looks like snot.

The cole slaw was very good. The portions on the sides are small, but the chicken makes up for that. You certainly won't walk away hungry after eating a three strip box.

Stroud's mashed potatoes with chicken gravy are still the top of the mark. Their gravy is the stuff of legend. Stroud's serves all their stuff family style, so you can eat mashed potatoes till you literally don't want any more. And their cinnamon rolls are awesome too.

It's kinda two different worlds though. Go Chicken Go is a drive thru carry out place, and Stroud's is a sit down restaurant and bar. As far as a drive thru chicken joint, Go Chicken Go kicks much ass. The only thing even close is a place called Slim Chickens, a chain joint out by the Bass Pro in Independence. It's OK, but pricey and not as good.

I don't eat gizzards or livers, so I can't speak to those. I know Stroud's serves them too. I used to get regular cut up chicken pieces at Strouds, but I think you get better quality chicken, and more of it, in the chicken strips. And no bones or skin to deal with either.
