Kipp’s Fried Chicken (Homegrown KFC )- favorite childhood fried chicken!

Would you believe that Kipp’s Chicken has been around since the 1980’s? Just like Tropical Hut, it is a very underrated homegrown fast food chain that specializes in fried chicken.

You can say that it is the Philippines’ local version of Kentucky fried chicken (KFC) and one of my favorite childhood food.

Craving for that familiar tasty fried chicken, we visited Kipp’s Chicken at SM Megamall Food Court for lunch.

Kipp’s Chicken and Spaghetti with Chicken Burger Patty

What I like about Kipp’s spaghetti – They use real chicken meat mixed with their own pasta sauce recipe.  The spaghetti sauce is thick and has that special homemade taste.  You can tell that it is made with real and better ingredients and not instant pre-mixes found at the grocery.

Majority of fast food spaghetti that tastes like banana ketchup with cheap hotdog slices.

Crunchy chicken burger patty – the patty is very tasty and the breading reminds me of Japanese style tonkatsu.  It is like the chicken version of Yabu tonkatsu.

Kipp’s fried chicken – The chicken skin and breading is crispy. The taste is one of a kind.  After all these years, it is still the same delicious, tasty, satisfying taste I remember since I was a kid.

Other fried chicken from fast food chains in the Philippines has a chemical instant powder breading taste that reminds you of junk food seasoning.

Gravy – The texture is thick and tasty with a hint of pepper. It really goes very well with the fried chicken.

It is by far the best gravy I’ve ever tasted! It does not have that chemical junk food taste from fast food stores that offer unlimited gravy with the texture that is watery and tastes like salted cream soup.

This is my usual order if I’m craving for a taste of Kipp’s Chicken, it is very satisfying when you combine having it with their tasty Spanish rice and sweet macaroni salad – both are their own recipe!

Final thoughts

Kipp’s Chicken is still the best friend chicken in the Philippines.  It is a very underrated and hidden gem in SM Food Court.  Kipp’s Chicken fried chicken recipe is one of a kind that is tasty and delicious which really satisfies.  I am amazed that they have managed to maintain their taste after all these years.

If you want a better fried chicken alternative to Jollibee, Mc Donald’s and Bonchon, then Kipp’s Chicken is for you to try and won’t disappoint.

Kipp’s Chicken reviews from netizens

Isa pang classic na sobrang underrated dahil wala sigurong budget pang ads so eto, I volunteer as endorser kahit for 1 day. 😜 Ang low profile pero natatagong alas ng Megamall! Wala man silang pangproduce ng tvc with Sha-Gab, bawing-bawi ka naman sa sarap. Lagi naming date place at tinatambayan sa SM North food court nung college days sa UP (kaso nagsara na yung sa SM North kaya sa Megamall ko na lang sila natitikman ngayon). May kakaibang sarap na wala sa iba, at may gravy na never lumabnaw (pantapat kay kfc na paibaiba ang consistency). Like Cindy's at Tropical Hut, isa to sa mga local brands na pang hall of fame, na sana hindi mawala. Seriously kung may pera lang ako, gusto ko magfranchise. Pro tip: Best with Spanish Rice, macaroni salad na mejo bland (pang balanse para di ka maumay) plus extra gravy with Sarsi!!
