KFC Hot Honey Drip Meal (burger & wings) [@NLi10]

 I get excited whenever I see a new thing appear at KFC, as the last few have turned out great.  As part of a series of three Honey themed reviews this fits in nicely too.



So - the large box meal was £12 which is insane for a lunch, but I skipped dinner later so that balanced out.

Then they brought over the wrong meal and looked confused that I minded and actually wanted my burger.

Then the burger wasn't exactly the warmest...


Looks pretty good though, just a sweet chilli version of the red-stranger things burger that I enjoyed.

Unfortunately though - this is not it.  The sauce is odd, it's not really adding to anything other than making it harder to eat.  The buns are heading to McDonalds quality so they disintegrate on contact.  The chicken was fine, but I really didn't feel like I got my money's worth - the wings were skimpy, and  coated in the sauce of disappointment.

As my colleague isn't a fan of the spicy mayo I usually get given that to use as a dip, and that's decent (if sub-nandos) but it was more of a sugar glaze than a hot sauce.

I double checked the windows to make sure we hadn't gone to McDonalds by mistake - but no - this is a rare fail from KFC.

Chips decent as usual, and the Lipton tea continues to be a pleasure - but on a cold, cold day I really wanted a nice spicy chicken burger, and for the price I paid I'm sure I could have got one from Nandos.  Ah well.
