Chizza
1.0
KFC
-Sinsa, Seoul-
with the family (they ate other things)
The Prodigal Son Returns for Xmas, Day 4 (see previously 6.347 Amaebi Avocado Maki).
In Seoul. Here through Christmas. Going back on the 26th with the family to Manila, where we’ll finish out the year.
The Chizza is a new item by KFC. Fried chicken breast, topped with fake ham, bittersweet BBQ sauce, processed cheese, minced raw onions, other random crap = chi(cken) + pi(zza). Essentially chicken parmesan with a few modifications, the concept per se is neither revolutionary nor revolting. But the poor execution made for yuck — the kind of fastfood abomination that Koreans seem to adore (see for example 4.275 Mr K + Quattro Smoky Whopper).
Huh. Similar to a Domino’s product…they dubbed their new hybrid “specialty chicken,” and it was essentially twelve chicken prices arranged in a two by six underneath a slew of pizza toppings.
like i said, this isn’t really anything new. it could be okay if properly executed.
wouldn’t it be great if pizza places just concentrated on making better pizza???
