Name a category: Chicken Fingers, “Kanto”, Korean, Buffalo Wings, Fried Chicken Meal, everybody has their own favorite for each! For this post though, let us zero in on whether or not the “better” Chicken McDo deserves to be your preferred fried chicken meal.
The Chicken McDo in its Better Cuts era

The better Chicken McDo cut is indeed big.
For dine-in, take-out, drive-thru, or delivery, I have always been the type who requests a wing part as it is the bigger-looking and “mas sulit” cut (for me). With the better Chicken McDo, I started validating the other chicken parts as “Big”: wing, breast, leg, or thigh, rest assured that you are about to partake, devour rather, a “dinosaur chicken”!
Tips:
(1) Order the Sulit Offer: 1pc Chicken McDo with DOUBLE Rice, plus request another round of gravy refill.
(2) Try the Sulit Offer: 1pc Chicken McDo (spicy!) with McFloat.
The Chicken McDo in its Better Breading era
McDonald’s has applied a new breading procedure to its fried chicken. One which results in a crispier and flakier chicken skin! Noticeably, the skin is tastier too versus that with the previous breading that urges you to consume one serving of rice with the skin and another with the juicy and tender meat inside.


Flakier and tastier chicken skin!
The Chicken McDo in its Better Meat Moisture era
This may be because of the new breading style, or the bigger cut choices, or both, or maybe not! One thing is for sure though, every bite of the better Chicken McDo is just satisfyingly juicier and tastier, right down to the last serving of rice.
The taxonomy of fried chicken is such an exciting gastronomic discussion that every category deserves an entire dedicated blog post. For the Fried Chicken Meal class so far, the Chicken McDo is the new category standard due to its size, crunch, juiciness, and compatibility with a hill – or a mountain of rice as a meal.
