KFC is the latest fast food chain to launch a new spin-off concept restaurant (Picture: KFC)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From Popeyes<\/a> to Chick-fil-A<\/a> and Dave\u2019s Hot Chicken<\/a>, there are a LOT of chicken chains<\/a> out there competing with KFC<\/a>. <\/p>\n

But the OG might have just blown them all out of the water, at least in the US<\/a>, after launching a brand new spin-off concept restaurant.<\/a><\/p>\n

Saucy by KFC opened in Orlando<\/a>, Florida<\/a>, on December 23 and it’s said to be \u2018unlike anything else\u2019 on the market, with fans describing it as \u2018wild\u2019, and some even proclaiming it to be \u2018the best restaurant of all time\u2019.<\/p>\n

The quirky fast food<\/a> restaurant serves new original recipe chicken tenders (known as \u2018tendies\u2019) as well as two chicken sandwiches or \u2018sammies\u2019 – the Ez Crispy and the Spicy Queso Crunch.<\/p>\n

However, the star of the show is, of course, the sauces.<\/p>\n

Saucy\u2019s menu features 11 sauces that aren\u2019t usually available at regular KFC restaurants; and these cover all sorts of tastes and flavours – from those who want a cool ranch-style sauce, to spicier ones and a few sweeter options.<\/p>\n

The menu includes Peri Peri Ranch, Smokey Bacon Ranch, Chimichurri Ranch and Saucy Ranch, as well as Jalapeno Pesto, Spicy Mango Chutney, and Thai Sweet \u2018N Spicy.<\/p>\n

There are also tangy sauces like Sweet Teriyaki, Creole Honey Mustard, and Sweet \u2018N Saucy BBQ, and finally there\u2019s a brand new house Saucy\u2019s Sauce, made of a mixture of ketchup, mayo, Worcestershire sauce, dill pickle and smoked paprika.<\/p>\n

When it comes to side dishes customers can order crinkle cut fries, coleslaw, and Hawaiian rolls, and for dessert there’s a choice of two cake jars in chocolate or key lime flavours. <\/p>\n

The new restaurant has ditched the traditional red and white KFC branding in favour of pink (Picture: KFC)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If all of this weren\u2019t enough, the restaurant also has its own unique drinks menu which features beverages such as a Hot Honey Watermelon Refresher, Peach and Mango Lemonade, Blue Raspberry Freeze and Tropical Black Tea.<\/p>\n

All of the items on the menu can be purchased individually or turned into combo meals, and KFC estimates there are at least 4,000 possible different ways you can customise your order.<\/p>\n

Speaking about Saucy\u2019s, Christophe Poirier, KFC\u2019s chief new concept officer said: \u2018Everyone is obsessed with sauce \u2013 more is more. <\/p>\n

‘With Saucy, we\u2019ve taken KFC\u2019s famous Original Recipe and amplified it with a brand-new concept that lets consumers play with flavour.<\/p>\n

\u2018You can pick a combo, choose a flight of sauces or, my personal favorite, mix sauces and sides to create your perfect meal.\u2019<\/p>\n

KFC just announced the launch of its new spinoff restaurant Saucy and the first location is opening VERY soon. The concept focuses heavily on chicken tenders admist a massive wave of competition from competing brands such as Raising Cane\u2019s and Dave\u2019s Hot Chicken. KFC\u2019s entrant will feature its new Original Recipe tenders as well as eleven new sauces plus sandwiches, drinks, and desserts. Would you want to try KFC\u2019s new Saucy restaurant for yourself? #foodnews<\/a>#fastfood<\/a>#kfc<\/a>#friedchicken<\/a>#chickentenders<\/a>#kfcsecretmenuhacks<\/a>#chickensandwich<\/a>#raisingcanes<\/a>#foodtok<\/a>#restaurants<\/a>#fyp<\/a> <\/p>\n

It\u2019s still on-brand for them, it\u2019s still fried chicken but it\u2019s focused on chicken tenders and their sauces. And honestly this idea is absolutely genius, they\u2019re selling their sauces for $0.49 per sauce and they\u2019re even offering sauce flights like a brewery. They got all the sauces.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, @eatme_orlando thought that the new Saucy concept was \u2018revolutionising the fast food scene\u2019, and @jessayyyye13 tried the all the sauces from the restaurant and rated them a 10\/10.
