The Fried Chicken Shop: Being a Bossman

SUBSCRIBE for more: bit.ly/2ol5mam
He manages the take-aways that London deserve, but not the ones we need right now. So we'll eat there. Because we can take it. But he’s not our hero. He’s a guardian of the late-night carbs. Keeper of the #CheatMeal. A Chicken Bossman.
London’s most popular form of takeaway eatery is the Fried Chicken Shop. Most of these low-cost urban eateries are run by migrant workers that have to deal with some of London’s finest clientele.
Waqar earns £6.95 per hour in his part time job which pays for his business management course. He’s a people person but finds living and working in the UK are very different to what he expected.
