I received an email the other week from a friend asking me try out Family Fried Chicken. I told her that I would love to, but it was just out of the way. (I work at the Fort and I go home to San Juan while Family Fried Chicken’s store is at Banawe.) She told me that it wasn’t a problem because they actually deliver all the way to my place! With this good news I immediately called home and told them not to prepare anything for tonight since I had some food coming. Family was excited, mood was set, and another great eating experience was to be this time shared with my family.

I expected to be home at around 8:30PM (my usual time) so I told my friend to have it sent around 830-845PM. I half expected them to be late a few minutes so I was busy taking my time showering when they actually arrived on time! A definite plus in my opinion.
We started off with mini siopaos. They were these tiny siopaos filled with asado pork.

They were really good! It was a shame that we only had 12 pieces! LOL My dad ended up eating like 3-4 pieces because he really enjoyed them!
You know the secret to a good pancit would be the sautee-ing and the veggies used, and this is definitely yummy. Mom liked it a lot actually and had 2nds to boot!

Aside from the pancit, we also had Kikiam and Fish Sticks. The Kikiam was quite awesome. They served us 3 different kinds and each one was awesome in its own way.

By this time, I couldn’t wait to try the chicken! I saw the sauce. It was different. It was soy sauce but it was a bit thicker. The viscosity of the sauce was somewhat akin to molasses. It tasted sweeter and definitely a bit salty.
The chicken was also great. Baked to perfection, the meat remaining juicy and full of flavor and despite being delivered from quite a distance, it was still HOT!


So thank you Family Fried Chicken for satisfying my family’s craving for that night. They vowed to make me order again but this time much much more!

This is my favorite post because my parents used to order Family Fried Chicken all the time when I was growing up. I think they used to have a branch in San Juan. I’ve actually been wondering what happened to Family Fried Chicken, I thought they closed shop. I want to take my family there because I want my kids to try the food I virtually grew up on.
I’ve always loved chicken! whether it’s fried, grilled, with sauce give me whatever parts and I will be happy.. so this post makes an instant favorite! I always on the look out for a restaurant offering chicken dishes,.. reading this blog makes me drool and salivate.. hope to win once of 3 gc’s so I can finally try Family Fried Chicken..
thanks!
I’ve tried eating the chicken from Family Fried Chicken a couple of times and it really is the best so far! Savoring the delicious fried chicken with the Family Fried Chicken’s special sauce makes the whole experience a lot more mouth-watering. =)~ Y’all chicken lovers, be sure not to miss this chance and order now. And to complete your experience, don’t forget to include the yummy mini siopaos and tasty kikiams to go along with your chicken and pancit.
Thank you for this review! Been hearing good stuff about their food and now I cant wait to try it! I’m glad that they deliver around QC so it would be really convenient for me!
I love your post on Family Fried Chicken. We used to always have Family Fried Chicken here in San Juan. I remember their chicken was sweet and juicy. I didn’t know they have a branch in QC. I will definitely be bringing my kids there.
i haven’t tried Family Fried Chicken but from the looks of it, its chinese styled fried chicken. i’ve always favored chinese dishes and the chicken looks sooooo yummy and so crispy. I would like to savor the queiam which looks like aling simang’s
.version (divisoria favorite of old) i liked the pictures you posted, in fairness, I can imagine how much your family enjoyed dinner that night. Would love to treat my family the same.
My fave post is Boulevard Diner (http://www.foodiemanila.com/2011/01/boulevard-diner/#more-750) because I myself was on the hunt for the best burger! A Choc-nut milkshake and a Gorgonzola burger, plus the 1/2 lb fries… mm-hmm! Yummy-ness at its best! You always keep us well informed, Foodie Manila! Will definitely go to Boulevard Diner for the BEST (as of yet) burger in town. Cheers!
This is probably my favorite post since me and my friend are crazy about siopao and kikiam. Since my family is in the province and I miss them so much , I would love to have a nice family meal here in the city with my friends.
My favorite post is ChaTime (http://www.foodiemanila.com/2011/05/chatime/). I’m a huge fan of milk tea so I’m always on the lookout for new milk tea places to try. I’m still trying to convert my boyfriend to milk tea, so maybe ChaTime will be the one to do it. My parents are already fans so I’m sure they would love to go there too. Maybe one of these days we’ll head over there.
Everybody loves fried chicken, whether you’re child or an adult. I even know diet freaks cheating on having fried chicken for meals.
Fried chicken has always been a family favorite, so why don’t we try it in Family Fried Chicken. I’ve never tried this before, but because I’ve been hearing good things about the foods, including this post, I really wanted to try this one! Hmm..makes me hungry…
Crossing my fingers to win one of the GC’s!
Cheers!
malapit sa bahay ko to, akala ko nagsara na sila kasi di ko na nakikita. favorite ko tong family fried kasi may chicken + pancit combo sila na 244 lang. free delivery pa! hehehehe! makapagpadeliver nga paguwi. OR BIGYAN MO NA LANG AKO NG GC HAHAHAHAHAH
My favorite post is your article about Chef’s Table at the Fort
http://www.foodiemanila.com/2011/03/chefs-table-the-fort/
I would love to take my family there because I want them to experience dining on a fine place and be amazed with good ambiance. As you described, “the decor which was quaint and modern, unconventional ceiling, manila paper table cloth, earth tones and amazing weave patterns on the walls.” This sounds interesting to me.. and of course, I want to try their sumptuous food. =)
Hahaha oonga Dani! Come home na please!
Chinese food are really delicious as they put their heart in making each dish, Try to buy some mini siopao at David’s Tea House at P170 per bag (Asado) P200 for (bola-bola) Never count it because 1 bag is already too heavy
Im not that really fan of chicken but when i tried Family Fried Chicken, the only word that comes out in my mouth is “whoa” a very surprising taste. Not only chicken, every menus that you think simple and typical, now the word is “Classic taste”
Well I love Fried Chicken. i want to share to my family the delicious Fried chicken of FAMILY FRIED CHICKEN.
my hubby really likes chicken… khit pa daw araw araw ulam namin chicken hindi xa magsasawa kulang nlng magkapakpak xa… hope manalo ako for my dearest hubby…
This post on Family Fried Chicken is my favorite post because since the other day, I’ve been searching for reviews on restaurants that serve chicken. I would like to treat my dad this Father’s Day and your blog is perfect because chicken is his ultimate comfort food. My family would surely enjoy the food if I take them to Family Fried Chicken.
By the way, I liked your FB fan page. My username is vintagekawaii onlineshop
This is my favorite post! I have three kids and whenever we eat out i have to buy some food from different restaurants to makes sure everyone has something they like to eat before my husband and i finally find where we want to settle and eat. Reading this post about the yummy array of food choices looks like i found the restaurant that will satisfy all my kids (hubby’s and mine too!) whims when it comes to food.
Hope i get to try it with GC’s!
More power to Foodie Manila!
After reading the article about Chinatown at Banawe (http://www.foodiemanila.com/2011/02/chinatown-banawe/), I was reminded of my Chinatown experience. My first time there was when my uncle invited my family for lunch. Initially, we were not impressed. We thought it was just another typical eat-all-you-can buffet, but we were wrong. Their dishes were well-prepared and delicious, and the price of the buffet was affordable. It was definitely a nice surprise for us.
I am not familiar with Family Fried Chicken, but I do enjoy reading this post. I love the delicious photos you provided especially the baked chicken and the mini siopaos (my favorite). How I wish I could have them.
I can’t wait to try this out with my family this weekend. I know this is going to be a well worth it experience.
Wow! Just by looking at all the photos plus captions you are saying, makes me salivate even more with this heavens goodness. Family Fried cHIKEN, ang sarap mo langtakin !!! ;D
Fried Chicken is always the bestest friend a Mommy can have when it comes to dining with kiddos.. I like this post because it sums up the whole family chicken experience. My son loves Kikiam, my little girl loves Siopao… first time she called that was “puting bread” it was funny when I heard .. hehe
I never like pancit when I was a kid, me and my brother next to me don’t like it at all, But not anymore now that we are grown-ups we love pancit… I can have pancit the whole day samahan mo pa ng Chicken panalo!
yum yum!
I like your post about Felicity. It made me want to go all the way there from Manila.
I want to bring my family there because they will definitely love their desserts.
I consider this as my favorite post because I luckily bumped into your site because of this. Been meaning to try this before and let my chicken lover dad taste it.
I used to order family fried chicken, (the one along N. Domingo St., San Juan City), each time when I have to do some Chinese religious rituals/ offerings on the altar at least 2x a month. Nakakarating pa yung manok sa Laguna, Subic, at Bataan tuwing may outing kami, hehe. I find Family Fried Chicken convenient to order because they also cater to what the customer’s request. Say, my request is ” yung may buntot at paa at ulo ha, hehe. They also sell fried lapu lapu and fried liempo freshly cooked and while you wait. Me and my family find it VERY tasty and affordable. They also serve pancit, siopao and kikiam which my kids like as well. I’m happy to know where Family Fried Chicken has relocated, hmm… i have to take note… 70 Matutum St. Q.C. Family Fired Chicken is like no other chicken house. More Power to you Family Fried Chicken!!!
Family Fried Chicken, Ang Manok ng Pampamilya
The chicken looks great! I have to say this is my favorite post. It made me hungry just looking at the pictures. I would love to try Family Fried Chicken, great to know that it’s not so far from our place. Hoping to win one of the GC’s.
Thank you for the giveaway!
i love this post because We love chicken, almost every week we ate chicken even it is fried or saute or buttered chicken. I want to take my family there because I want to have them the best meal and blow out this coming week because its my birthday I want them to be surprised specially my tatay that Its my turn to thank him how wonderful he is to be my father
Family Fried Chicken!!! just by looking at the pictures it makes my stomach wild! i love your family fried chicken because its simple awesome and delicious! i will surely bring my family to dine with your terrific foods!!
keep up! and God Bless!
I would love to bring my family here because I want us to have a fine dinner experience. Since as far as I can remember we never got the chance to eat out. This would be my family’s first if ever. Another thing is that my family’s favorite dish is fried chicken. I wished I could cook it for them but since I suck at it the GCs will be a great alternative. This is probably my favorite post since it gives your readers a chance to experience a family bonding at family fried chicken.
This is also my favorite post because I suddenly miss the REAL kikiam after seeing your photo. And also the fried chicken, I want to take all of the skin!
I want to bring my whole family to dine here because I’m sure, Family Fried Chicken’s taste beats any other fried chicken in town, even if they have chicken all you can :p
My favorite post is the one on Boulevard Diner! It’s actually the first post I’ve actually bookmarked.
I don’t know but if I have time (I will surely find time) to go there with my family. We’re suckers for American food except chinese foods (dimsums,etc.), so I’m sure my family would definitely enjoy there. But then, dimsums are my family’s all time favorite so this post would be my second choice. The chicken looks great but better if me and my family would got a taste of it
Kudos! Foodie Manila!
Family Fried Chicken is my favorite post. Voila, thanks for the great review…
My husband and I will celebrating our anniversary this coming August, I want to treat them in this restaurant even though we’re living in Bulacan but If given a chance to win we will definitely go there. I want to taste the ooziness and crispiness of the chicken.. my mom loves to eat pancit.. definitely we want to try it
THanks Foodie Manila… more power!
Ill be waiting for your another food review
I liked the ChaTime post (http://www.foodiemanila.com/2011/05/chatime/) becasue I love tea and the ambiance of the place. I am also looking forward to checkout the place since I am also loving milk tea.

I love pasta and pizza…the cheesier and gooey-er the better
The pictures of the tomato pasta and 5 cheese pizza w/ the cheese strings had me ooh-ing and aah-ing, I was so excited w/ just the pictures that I called my sister just so she can drool with me.

Some families like going to the malls and shopping,
