[Revisit] I used the eat-in service on a weekday night! I ordered the limited-time lemon & pepper chicken, biscuits, and hot coffee. The total price was just over 550 yen. The chicken had a mild saltiness and was quite delicious. The hot biscuits had a gentle sweetness and were crispy. This is best enjoyed in the store. The coffee was average. The interior was quiet and clean. The eat-in space here is always empty, so it's very comfortable. Let's use it occasionally.

Visit during the second week of July 2021. Located in Chijincho, Hachioji City, "Kentucky Fried Chicken Nishi Hachioji Store". This store is convenient with a drive-thru and parking lot. I went to buy the anniversary pack before it sold out. It's one of the foods I usually resist eating. Anniversary Pack (5-piece Original Chicken) 1,000 yen Coleslaw M 260 yen Fried Potato L 330 yen Total 1,590 yen. The chicken used that day was from Kagoshima. The taste was the same as usual. However, the color of each part was dark, so it felt like it might have been fried a bit too much. Why is it an anniversary pack? Japan Kentucky Fried Chicken Co., Ltd. is celebrating its 51st anniversary. It was established on July 4, 1970, in honor of the American Independence Day. Initially, Mitsubishi Corporation and Kentucky Fried Chicken Corporation established Japan Kentucky Fried Chicken Co., Ltd.

Merry Christmas✨✨I'm a chicken guy, but my stomach can eat a whole chicken like a beef guy. Kentucky flavor is the best! It's so tasty and spicy! The taste that fast food lovers will always crave. It's the busiest time of the year, but there is a lack of coordination between the floor, cashier, and kitchen. It's a problem to try to purchase without a reservation, but the floor staff were turning away customers without reservations at the entrance, saying only side menus were available for individual purchases. However, at the cashier, customers who made it there could purchase individual chicken pieces, which is contradictory. It's a yearly issue, so why does this keep happening, I wonder. The smoked chicken has a weak smoky flavor. The original chicken is enough. Please offer a Christmas menu with just chicken barrels. Happy Merry Christmas at home!

The store is a bit far from Nishi-Hachioji Station, but it is located on a main street, making it easy to spot. They have a parking lot, which makes it convenient for even passersby to use. They also have a drive-thru. I ordered the Kernel Crispy, which costs 220 yen including tax. It was pre-made, but it was well heated, so it was warm and the crispy texture of the coating was still there. It was a bit salty with soy sauce, but the chicken was tender and easy to eat. It wasn't too greasy, and overall, it was delicious chicken.

Here is a review of KFC in Nishi Hachioji. I visited the Kentucky Fried Chicken store after a long time. The featured menu item was the 9-piece barrel, which was on sale for 1500 yen instead of 2160 yen. Unfortunately, when I went around 8:00 PM, the chicken was not freshly made and was lukewarm. It lacked juiciness and was disappointing. The Red Hot Chicken, on the other hand, was crispy and hot, maintaining its deliciousness. The Red Curry Twister, a collaboration with Nakamuraya, was a bit disappointing in terms of size and flavor. Overall, I hope KFC will work harder to meet expectations.

Since being invited by Haruka Ayase, I've been watching "JIN" on Sundays since its final episode, as well as the digest before that, reruns, and even the first series... I've been watching all the recorded episodes continuously, skipping through the commercials. Haruka Ayase appears in both the main content and the sponsor's commercials. Watching her makes me crave... Kentucky Fried Chicken!! Since the nearest store in Narahara closed down, I usually visit the Nishi-Hachioji or Aeon Mall Hinode stores. The Nishi-Hachioji store is conveniently located near JR Nishi-Hachioji Station and the Koshu Kaido Oiwake intersection. I usually use the drive-thru with my car. Not only because of Haruka Ayase's influence, but also because it was "Torinohi" on the 28th. I received a coupon from Kentucky via email for "Torinohi," which is a play on words for the number 28 in Japanese. However, the Nishi-Hachioji store was not participating on the 28th, but on the 20th! Although the coupon stated "excluding some stores," I didn't realize this store was one of them. So, I couldn't enjoy the benefits of "Torinohi," but when the craving hits, the magic of Kentucky is strong! I bought Original Chicken 6 pieces and 2 Japanese-style Chicken Cutlet Sandwiches. The chicken was a bit tough and lacked juiciness, possibly due to takeout. The flavor of the coating was also mild, almost too thin. I asked for no mayonnaise in the Japanese-style Chicken Cutlet Sandwiches, as my eldest son dislikes mayonnaise. I'm not a fan of large amounts of mayonnaise either. But I feel like mayonnaise would complement this sandwich. Without mayonnaise, it felt a bit lacking. However, I still enjoyed it without mayonnaise. The sweetness of the cabbage stood out, and I thought it was delicious. Chain restaurants tend to have variations in taste, and while it may just be a coincidence, I felt that the chicken at the Nishi-Hachioji store was somewhat lacking in flavor. The Japanese-style Chicken Cutlet Sandwich passed the test and was delicious! Nonetheless, the power of Kentucky that makes me crave it from time to time is incredible.

My favorite menu at KFC is the biscuit. It would be even better if the inside was a bit more moist, but it's still delicious as it is. Next is the Red Hot Chicken, and lastly the Fried Fish. However, now only the biscuit remains on the menu. The new item "Crispy Coated Sauce Chicken" has a crispy coating similar to Peking duck with a sweet and spicy sauce similar to gochujang. It may resemble oil-drizzled chicken in some ways. The flavor is stronger than the original chicken, so even those who like soy sauce flavor may be delighted at first, but may get a bit tired of it by the time they finish the second piece. The crispiness varies among individual pieces, with some being a bit soggy. I also tried the sandwich version, which seemed to use breast meat and was quite dry and not very tasty. The Fried Stick with garlic pepper flavor, also using breast meat, had a slightly better texture, but the coating flavor was not very noticeable (perhaps because it was after the sauce chicken). The original sauce was decent, but the breast meat items were not great. I couldn't help but think they should pickle the meat and turn it into ham before cooking. It would be even better if they brought back the Red Hot Chicken and Fried Fish.

The restaurant is conveniently located near the station, making it easy to use. It seems to be popular among a wide range of age groups, not just the younger generation. I was surprised by how frequently people use it, considering the price range. The seasoning on the chicken is always delicious. The atmosphere around the restaurant is a bit average for me, but I still recognize it as a go-to place. It's perfect for bringing as a treat for Christmas parties and other occasions!

Located about a 5-minute walk from JR Nishi-Hachioji Station, this restaurant is situated along National Route 20 (Koshu Kaido), making it convenient for those traveling by car with parking and a drive-thru available. Despite its small interior, there is a non-smoking area enclosed by glass, allowing non-smokers to comfortably enjoy their visit. The calm atmosphere also makes it a charming place to leisurely dine and drink.

Somehow, players Fillet Spicy and Original Chicken Abara are named in the starting lineup! In the world, ... (completely unrelated but ...) the wife of the candle and the one star are very touchy-feely. One has been pampered since childhood, while the other has worked hard since childhood and achieved something. That something is touchy-feely! Touchy-feely! Despite that, the spiciness of Fillet Spicy Sand is so spicy and intense!

The other day, I visited the famous KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) store, KFC Nishi-Hachioji, located a 5-minute walk from JR Chuo Line Nishi-Hachioji Station. This store is known for the curse of Colonel Sanders in the fast-food industry, a legend that originated when fans threw a statue of Colonel Sanders into the Dotonbori River in Osaka after the Hanshin Tigers won the Central League in 1985. Since then, the team's performance declined, leading to rumors of the curse. The statue was found 23 years later, sparking a lot of attention. In a similar vein, the Boston Red Sox were believed to be under the curse of the Bambino until they won the World Series in 2004. This curse, along with the curse of Colonel Sanders, is often compared. As for my visit to KFC Nishi-Hachioji, I ordered the Cheese Chicken Filet Sandwich for takeout. The store is conveniently located along my commute route.
