In the past, I've generally tried to steer clear of most things that Oprah recommends, if for no other reason than because I take pride in my masculinity. However, Ezell's is so good, I may just be totally converted. Being a life-long Southerner let me just go ahead and confirm that Ezell's is as good as any deep fried poultry you'll find south of the Mason-Dixon. I know the place is kind of an institution around the Garfield High area, but even as I write this, I have hard time believing it' was as good as it was. From the breading to the chicken to the rolls, this place is definitely it for classic Southern comfort food. Maybe I should listen to Oprah more often...
