Best Theme Park Fried Chicken? We Find Out! 🍗

[@stacystarship]

I had to go back and add it all up 😆 Disney = 70.5 points Knotts = 64 points Universal = 56 points

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Thanks

[@christinehoolihan7433]

@@OrdinaryAdventures You two are some of the nicest people, extra ordinarily nice and easy to spend time with like an extra ordinary friend. GREAT video....I am curious to know if you can still add an extra piece of chicken?

[@78vintages]

That guy playing Doc was brilliant

For a fraction of a second I thought “isn’t Christopher Lloyd old now, why is he here?”

[@bec.11]

He did an amazing job

[@emdee7744]

Drumstick or thigh.

[@LumiCraft]

I visited all the way from Australia and BTTF is my favourite all time movie, this guy is honestly the best character entertainer in the park. Goes out of his way to always approach someone :)

[@freshtapcoke]

Seriously! Was that off the cuff? He was perfect.

[@chriztee2020]

"You're not thinking 4 dimensionally!". Hahaha. That guy was the best. I love the great character actors at Universal.

[@ernestoorozco9766]

You guys should do more videos like this comparing food from all 3 parks😊

[@ae-holo5972]

I really like the Knott’s chicken for many reasons. #1 you don’t need a theme park ticket to enjoy it, #2 sides and portions are a lot better than any of the other 2. #3 you got boysenberry, to me it’s a clear win Mrs. Knott’s chicken

[@patrickhausenfleck9045]

Those that Truely Think otherwise have not either even tried Mrs. Knott's & are pro Disney...or they see the price as being too high at Knott's (even though the portion/overall taste of the food is much better).

[@catterin7815]

@@patrickhausenfleck9045 I agree, NO ONE beats Knotts. Even going into this video they admitted that they were pro Disney assuming Disney would win. Also, how exactly does the look of a restaurant change the taste of a meal? Most of the points they gave Disney over Knotts had to do with them liking the look of the restaurant more. And the price? Almost $20 for a smaller meal was good while $25 was too expensive for a larger meal that includes unlimited (and better) biscuits and dessert? And a better selection for sides? Somehow Disney is better because they offer you green beans or more mash potatoes with your meal?

[@SWilliams-01]

Disagree. Your not comparing chicken. Your comparing other things like sides, dessert or ticket cost. That wasn’t the question.

[@nicklang6798]

Love how Doc interaction with guest. I asked him for a pic and he looked at his watch and said "Ok, make it fast though" we watched him peeking in windows and looking around like he's lost 🤣

That’s a good Doc Brown impression

[@franklee538]

I’ve had knotts once and the portioning, price and all the food you get is the best deal of any theme park. I’ve never had fried chicken at Disneyland because there’s so much other food to try but knots was amazing.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

👍

[@domdoodledoo]

The honey butter biscuit from Universal, with the all the sides from Knotts, (including the pie) and the chicken from Disneyland and you would have the perfect meal 😋

[@aladdinaz3908]

LOL!! Your conversation with Doc Brown was Jigowatts Perfection!!! one of the BEST Character Interactions I have ever seen!!! That Doc Brown was ON!!!!!! That clip is the next best thing we will have to Back the Future 4! Maybe it could serve as inspiiration for a sequel to BttF or even inspiration for a sequel series for Back to the Future - The Extra (Ordinary) Adventures of Doc and Clara Brown!!! LOL

I love this video, so much info, and great content! I liked the fried chicken comparisons and the introduction to the Christmas merchandise at Disneyland, For me, though, nothing can compare to Mr. Knott's Fried chicken.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

👍

[@richletram539]

The cast member playing Doc Brown was awesome! I prefer Breast because it just has more meat. That guy at 15:59 that posed for your camera...🤣 When I was a kid in central Massachusetts, we used to have wild Rhubarb growing in our neighborhood. it was very tart and stringy and crunchy but was great if you rinsed it with water and dipped it in sugar. Has Peter ever been to Wright's Farm in Rhode Island? Best Chicken in the world! 😉 OOOO! Christmas merch! Thank you for taking us on your adventure! So much fun! 😁

[@paolasalazar8201]

I think Knotts would be the better choice overall since you could always get a good fried chicken meal without having to pay for theme park admission. But Plaza Inn has always been my top choice when going to the parks. Thank you guys for another great video. Going to head over to Disneyland soon to check out that Star Wars merch.

[@cristinaayala5307]

Omg!!!! I want alll the ornaments!! They're sooo kool!!!😍

[@jamesfraley2715]

Disneyland's chicken wins for me hands down. I visited LA several times in my teens and even after several decades now, I still remember the smell and taste of Plaza Inn's 'flavorful' chicken. The only thing I remember from Knotts was the amount of food and, of course, the boysenberry.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Plaza inn is fantastic

[@applebaglady]

Great video! Knott's also has the "Chicken to go" so you can take your fried chicken home.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

True

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

[@HawaiiDisneygirl]

Yes- the animators’ drawings on the wall of the “secret club “ are the real deal. I know this because my cousin’s sketch is up there-he’s an animator for The Simpsons. Mahalo for doing this episode on the fried chicken. It’s been a controversial subject in the family. Personally, I like knott’s.

[@staceybertran52]

I worked at Knotts for 7 yrs. It was my first job ever. I learned all the secrets back in the late 80's. When Mrs Knott was actually there. The Thanksgiving thing. Is so crazy - people are so rushed. Its not the best experience. But who knows its been many years since I did it. So hopefully its better now.

Knotts tip: order from thr to go spot right next to the restaurant they have family meals and it much cheaper than the sit down restaurant. You can eat at the tables by Starbucks as a season pass holder this is the best meal to feed a group. And if you have a season pass you get a discount too.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

👍 we like eating at the sit down and getting drinks too

[@arlenedisneydreaming6816]

Oooooh what a fun video, I LOVE a good fried chicken!! If I was to judge on just the fried chicken alone, it would be Plaza Inn all the way! I love the crunchy crispiness of the outside and the juiciness of the inside. But I agree with Kitra in that Knott’s has the best meal value for your buck. ❤

[@tuti5247]

Plaza Inn! The portion size and the quality is just way better!

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

👍 I think the portion size at knotts is better though

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

👍

[@joshuamiller8259]

Pro Tip for Plaza, if you arnt super hungry and want to split. Order one regular chicken and one child size. That gives you a total of 4 pieces and sides, perfect to split.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

Good tip!

[@gissneric]

The fried chicken at Flo's V8 Cafe over at Cars Land is the best and it's actually worth it for the price cause the portions are big.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

I think plaza inn is better

[@Onihito48573]

We saw you guys at Universal! That's our stroller in the reflection of Cletus' chicken shack. Saw you were filming and we didn't want to disturb you.

[@coasterlvr]

knott's reminds me of hometown buffet every time i try it. lol i've had plaza inn the last two days. :)

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

I think you’re eating the wrong things at knotts

[@chrissyfloyd]

That Doc Brown was hilarious! LOL

[@gregg5958]

What! Outrageous! Everyone knows that Magic Mountain has the best chicken!!! (Kidding). 😂 I have the same trouble deciding between Knott’s and Disneyland. I will say I have never found the Knott’s Chicken to Go as good. It doesn’t even seem like the food came out of the same restaurant. So I guess there is a lot to be said for the full table restaurant experience and presentation. During the covid shutdown though, it was nice to sit at tables right in the middle of Grand Avenue, eating my box of Chicken, knowing that this would be a once in a lifetime thing.

[@OrdinaryAdventures]

I’d be shocked if magic mountain had the best anything food wise lol

[@gregcollins5585]

Plaza Inn fried chicken is the best IMHO :)

Now I want fried chicken!! Hoping to make it to Disneyland next year for our first time. The Plaza will definitely be on the to do list. Our favorite fried chicken in the Orlando theme park area is at Disneys fort wilderness at a place call P and Js. It’s a quick take out place at Disney resort. The fried chicken meal is amazing. Highly recommend if you two make it out that way again. We go there each trip to get the chicken meal and then walk over and check out the horse barn. That’s where they keep all the horses on Disney property. Pretty cool.

[@randylaytonorangeboy]

This is a phenomenal idea I hope there's more to come.

[@DeanNGretchen]

Love this taste test at the parks, do love me some fried chicken and been a fan of it for 46 years. Favorite piece the thigh, has a good texture and flavor with the dark meat. Now time go hit the Colonel chicken soon now.

[@michelleferguson-mingus6744]

just watching your Chicken throw down ... I did a little investigating. The copy cat recipes for Mrs. Knotts recipe all concur that their recipe: Chicken, salt, flour, oil. I think one of the keys is that 15 minutes before serving (I am guessing because they make the chicken in big batches) they put it back in the oil ... crunchy, crunchy, crunchy. Plaza Inn: chicken, buttermilk, flour, salt, pepper, paprika (kudos Peter on correctly identifying that flava flav) eggs, and vegetable oil for frying. They also double fry @ Plaza Inn. We usually get the pot roast from the Plaza Inn and we share, its a lot of food. We also do breakfast, because Minnie. We'll have to try the fried chicken next time. Thanks so much for the great content :)

[@pixiegrrl69]
