<\/a><\/p>\nCasa Fried Chicken, when it\u2019s staffed and when the chicken looks reasonably freshly fried, offers unreasonably inexpensive fare: wings are 4 for $2 and big honkin\u2019 chicken parts are $1 each. The piece on this plate was about six inches wide and 2\u00bd inches thick. \u201cIs that a thigh?\u201d I asked incredulously. She enclosed it in a wax paper bag and answered, \u201cOne dollar,\u201d avoiding my question. At home, my autopsy revealed that it appeared to be a thigh somehow firmly affixed to a breast based on the color of the meat but not on the skeleton or any anatomy I was familiar with. It was agreeably seasoned though, and for the price it was a genuine bargain.<\/p>\n
The Fried Rice Noodles are flavored modestly, well lubricated, and possess the satisfyingly chewy texture of an archetypical comfort food. And I\u2019m addicted to the stuff. You\u2019re looking at roughly a quarter of the large size which weighed in at over 2\u00bd lbs: $5.75. I\u2019ve fallen into the habit of bringing one of these home every time I visit because since they\u2019re delicious but not overpowering, they\u2019re easy to tinker with by adding other ingredients (meat, fish, veggies, etc.) and enhancing the seasoning appropriately thus creating something you didn\u2019t dine on the day before while staying well within your budget. This meal cost about $2.50.<\/p>\n

\nThe remarkable feature of these noodz is that they are enormous! I\u2019ve unfurled one in this photo; it measures about 7\u00bd x 5 inches and that\u2019s not the largest of the lot.<\/p>\n
