[Review] Perfect Fried Chicken - Croydon

Perfect Fried Chicken is mostly perfect on every visit.
I have been eating it for years but sadly the Perfect fried chicken on 239 Mile End Road closed so I have had to go to other branches.

Sadly, the food scene at Stepney Green has changed, the Perfect Fried Chicken on 239 has been replaced by Green Pepper and a few doors away you have German Doner Kebab.
Towards the Mile End side, there is a small Kentucky Fried Chicken as well as a YiFang drinks stall.
Recently, another Asian grocery store opened called Food to Go near Ifor Evans Place.

Anyway, by chance I discovered a Perfect Fried Chicken joint in Croydon and they offer some light meal deals like ribs and fries, wings and fries etc for around £2.

On the first visit, had the ribs with fries.

The ribs were a bit sweet but the fries were so comforting as they tasted consistently like the ones at Mile End.
They were fried from frozen when ordered so they were golden yellow and evilicious with mayonnaise.
I don't know what brand they use but the mayonnaise is light and creamy.



On the second visit, had wings and fries, again the fries were amazing while the wings were very spicy.


The only thing I found different was the chili sauce.
Hoping to go back again for the chicken.

Perfect Fried Chicken:
95a S End, Croydon CR0 1BG



[Review] Lidl Deluxe Ruby Chocolate

Ruby Chocolate is the fourth type of chocolate following milk, white and dark chocolate.
It was first available in 2017 by Barry Callebaut made with ruby cocoa beans.

In 2018, I finally tried Ruby Chocolate in the form of a kitkat where you could taste notes similar to raspberry.

Later on I was lucky enough to discover a coffee shop serving Ruby Chocolate beverage using Callebaut Ruby Chocolate pellets so I got to try the pellets on their own which were sugary with a raspberry tone.

At Lidl they had the Ruby Chocolate bar so I had to give it a try and it was surprisingly nice because the texture of the chocolate was smooth like galaxy with the fruity raspberry aftertaste that I was expecting.

Definitely worth trying at £1.67.


[Review] Kitkat Ruby Chocolate

Ruby chocolate is so different to white, milk or dark chocolate.
It had a sweet and sour taste similar to raspberry which I really liked.


[Review] KitKat Chunky Peanut Butter

Recently tried the KitKat Chunky Peanut Butter which was not my cup of tea but then I am not a fan of peanut butter.
The filling was somehow dry and just tasted like dehydrated peanut butter.


[Review] Lindt Lindor Milk Mint Truffles 200g

Lindt Lindor Truffles are popular because they are silky and smooth.
They come in a variety of flavours and the ones I like are hazelnut, coconut and pistachio.

Recently tried the Mint Truffles and they were really addictive especially if you like anything that is mint chocolate.



Other Lindt finds:
Lindt Lindor extra dark.


[Review] Aldi Holly Lane Authentic German Apple Stollen

The Stollen has never appealed for me because they look like a dense block of cake covered in white icing so I though they were sweet and hard.

To my surprise, the Aldi Holly Lane Authentic German Apple Stollen turned out addictive and goes well with a cup of tea.

The texture was not dense or dry as I thought but soft and crumbly when I ran a knife through it.
It was loaded with juicy raisins and dried apples with a lovely almond Marzipan aftertaste.

I was definitely glad my first Stollen was an Apple one because the apple gives it the extra fruity kick to it.
The icing that looks overwhelming blends in nicely like snow.

Longdan Oriental Supermarket

Conveniently located in Camden offering a good variety of vegan treats, bubble teas and other Oriental stuff.
