“We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.” Ralph Hattersley I took a few photos of the chicken when the guy behind the counter told me photos are not allowed.

Suckerfree Southern Plate & Bar

As I walked towards Suckerfree Southern Plate & Bar I recalled a few years ago there was a bbq joint here and across the street was a Hard Rock Cafe. Suckerfree has a good size menu.
Chicken Charlie’s FRYBQ

I’m a huge fan of Chicken Charlie’s facebook deal of the day. Everyday there is a new special. These are the dishes I’ve tried. Fried chicken was crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Very good flavor from the spices. A bit like Popeyes. This chicken is tastier but Popeyes is cheaper.

By The Beach Caribbean Cuisine

I wake up Tuesdays and I think about battered pieces of chicken dipping into fresh canola oil. I try to get to By The Beach by 11am when the chicken is fresh out of the fryer.
