German TikToker divides S’porean netizens after praising local KFC
You didn’t truly eat in Singapore until you had argued with someone over where to find the real finger-lickin’ good food.
German TikToker praises KFC in Singapore
TikToker @chiaciek saw her comment section blow up after posting a video of herself eating KFC’s cheese fries. “I can’t go back to Germany after trying the KFC in Singapore,” she wrote, adding that the food was “made different here”. According to her posts, she moved here after marrying her Singaporean husband.
Singaporean TikTokers weigh in
Her video attracted some 152 comments from netizens debating about her statement. Some opined that the Singapore franchise lost out to other fast food chains, while one commenter insisted that the Malaysian KFC was superior.
Some defended our local KFC, which has exclusive cheese fries topped with a cheesy sauce, mayonnaise and chopped spring onions. TikToker @terrapin pointed out that “it takes a foreigner to appreciate the franchise here”, with the creator herself agreeing that the fried chicken served at KFC outlets in Europe “is so small”. TikToker @JT gave a neutral response by saying: “KFC is not that bad. Depending on the staff cooking and preparing your meal at each different location (sic). My personal experience.”
Unlimited Chicken Feast
For those who like Singapore’s KFC franchise, the chain is celebrating International Fried Chicken Day on Jul 6 by hosting its first Unlimited Chicken Feast from Jul 5 to 7 at three KFC outlets.
The ticketed event will have three sessions each for lunch and dinner. And each session is for 90 minutes, during which you can have unlimited servings of “over 10 food items, including the signature Original Recipe Chicken, Hot & Crispy Chicken, sides, desserts and soft drinks”.
The sides you can get are Popcorn Chicken, Tenders, the new Spicy Dippers with Sriracha-style Sauce, Nuggets, Coleslaw, Whipped Potato and French Fries. And for dessert, free-flow Egg Tart and Golden Mochi Balls with durian and chocolate fillings to wash down with bottomless soft drinks like Coca-Cola, Sprite and Fanta Grape.
