Yes, that is some fried chicken you see. Yes, as the name would have you believe - this is a Mexican Restaurant review. Befuddled? Then you are too new. Or, perhaps, you don't know your fried chicken quite as well as you would like to think you do (just saying, or we need to be corrected by you, our reader). Houstonist loves a challenge, so we gave ourself one - get skinny(er) and keep giving you some food reviews that are not restricted to rice cakes and miniscule frozen entrees. To prepare ourselves for this resolved healthier-ness, we decided to have a last go at some stellar fried chicken. After the pies, cookies, roasted beast and gravy, stuffing and bacon grease addled vegetables the holidays bring, we need to do some thinking about what actually makes it to our pie-hole (and then becomes the junk in our trunk). However, a treat at times is in order - and the fried chicken and frozen margaritas at Spanish Village are a hella treat. We made this pilgrimage about a year ago-ish and found our "tasty" chicken to be too salty and somewhat dry and over-cooked, so, not-so tasty. The memory of chickens past brought us back around for another try.
