Mrs. Knott’s Chicken Dinner

A couple of weeks ago we went to Mrs. Knott’s for dinner.  There is a BOGO in the Entertainment Book.  Since we usually eat out around 5 p.m., we are not used to having to wait to be seated at restaurants.  However, we did have to wait a bit since this place is so popular.  D and I ate one time at the “to-go” annex but have never eaten in the dining room together.  D remembers eating there with his parents once, which was probably over 25 years ago!  We haven’t been to the amusement park part of Knott’s with the kids yet…maybe next year?

The fried chicken dinner is around $16.  It comes with 4 pieces of chicken, 12 biscuits, salad, chicken noodle soup or cherry-rhubarb, mashed potatoes, corn or cabbage and boysenberry sherbet or pie.  That is a ton of food, and we definitely did not have to order separate kids’ meals.

k liked the chicken noodle soup.  We were curious about the cherry-rhubarb, but not curious enough to order it.

n liked the biscuits with butter and jam.

The boysenberry sherbet reminded me of the bumbleberry ice cream we had in Utah.

We took the pie to go.  Isn’t the pie-slice holder so cute?

The fried chicken may not have been as gourmet as Thomas Keller’s, but value-wise, Mrs. Knott’s (especially with the BOGO) cannot be beat!  I am happy to report that Mrs. Knott’s has retained its position on D’s list.
