@@Moon_Presence excellent point. What I think most miss, the costs of a cooked-to-order restaurant, made primarily from whole ingredients versus purchased premade foods from a mass food distributor is the biggest separating factor. Potentially exponentially greater in cost today! These restaurants exist in more metropolitan areas of course, and must be priced inaccessibly to most people to cover the costs of doing business. The ultra rare occurrence of your small town American diner that still prepares most of their own foods is a beautiful thing.

Make your own, people. Buy a pack of chicken tenders $5 and change here in Texas grocery stores. Throw them in a bowl with a little seasoning. Mix. Throw in some flour. Enough to cover tenders and a bit extra. Throw more seasoning on top of flour. Mix everything well until tenders covered. Heat up some oil and drop them bad boys in. Cook till golden brown. Take out and put on a plate with paper towels. Fries. Potatoes. Cheap as hell. Cut potatoes in desired fry shape. Skinny, thick, skin off, skin on. Whatever. Soak fries in bowl of water after cutting. Soak for an hour. The starch will come out of the fries so they wont be soggy. Rinse fries then drain water. It also helps to dry fries with a paper towel or towel but it isn't required. Just makes them a bit more crispier. Then just heat up oil and cook until golden brown. Put some seasoning on fries right when you take them out or just salt. Easy. Way cheaper and makes a lot more. I suck at cooking but anybody can follow this.

better off making a buttermilk marinade with smoked paprika and garlic, salt and pepper and a little cayenne. Mix flour, cornstarch, and a little baking powder. Season with garlic onion coriander smoked paprika salt pepper thyme and msg, sprinkle some of the marinade into the flour to create little crispy pieces, then take the chicken from the marinade and coat it in the flour. That buttermilk will make the chicken more tender plus the flour will stick very well to it. Just coating with flour with no adhesive will be a disappointment

[@smokeygreeny4488]

@@Hathnotseen That's way too much and goes off track of what my comment was originally and obviously made to do, which was a recipe to cook something extremely easy to make. And no, just using flour is not disappointing. You'll get a crispy outside like you would do any other way. More complex ways like your recipe is just for the overrated crunch and extra flair to the flavor. Trust me, I've tried all of them. It's just more work for basically prettier tenders. Less is more.

Sadly if the prices say for instance double and ppl go half as much as they used to the place still gets the same amount of money and serves less food for it. So enough ppl would have to boycott it entirely to see any kind of change. And sadly it was increased to support a higher minimum wag for their employees during the trucker strike, so minimum wage won't go down. Even stuff in grocery stores went up and stayed there, because they realized ppl would pay that price for it. It's all fueled by greed and it would be nice to see things drop back down to what they were, but reality is they probably won't. Alot of places for various companies food related have shutdown places everywhere, so it's possible for a change if ppl stop going to places once the price gets ridiculous, which we are at that point now so yea.
