We can't discuss fried chicken without mentioning Tetsuo's soy-marinated boneless chicken thighs. It has the perfect crunch to pair with steamed hot rice and gravy, just how Filipinos like it. 88 E Abada st., Katipunan, QC. +63916 487 6524

If you want a good 'ol classic country fried chicken, Chef Carlo Miguel's homemade fried southern chicken should be on your radar. And did we mention that everything here is boneless? Just the perfect munchies while you binge on Netflix if you ask us. Available on GrabFood or FoodPanda.
