It’s Friday again and that means it’s time for Fast Food Friday! For today, we will be reviewing Long John Silver’s Jolly Christmas Roast.
A first look at their platter already shows that it’s rather unappetising. It is clearly very different from the promotional poster where everything looks so good. Then again, everything looks good on promotional posters. What you get, on the other hand, is often quite disappointing in looks. But nevertheless, we shall judge it based on its taste.
For this Jolly Christmas Roast, it’s supposed to come with a roasted chicken leg, some classic gravy, turkey bacon, mashed potatoes, and crispy corn.
Let’s take a cut into the chicken leg first. As I cut a piece of chicken, it looks to be filled with a lot of fats and skin. So for those of you who like to eat chicken skin, you might take a liking to this.
The chicken is soft and quite tender, but overall just tastes like a bland chicken without the gravy. Eating it with the gravy doesn’t seem to help much either.
Moving on to the turkey bacon. The turkey bacon is not at all crispy like what I expected. Its consistency is somewhat similar to turkey ham instead of turkey bacon.
