Ribs, pulled pork, chicken, individually they are good but combined they are awesome. That’s why after a long time coming I had to order from Le Boucan and try their BBQ. I had only heard good things of the restaurant and was craving for good BBQ. Call it FOMO or plain old gluttony I wanted […]

I shared my view on chicken in the past and yes I’m more a fan of rotisserie than fried chicken, but it doesn’t mean I don’t like it. Some fried chicken I find taste just too oily and greasy with tasteless batter. I have to be honest I was not looking for fried chicken when […]
