I highly recommend that you take the Third Ward Creole fried-chicken shack taste test for yourself. As for our results, I'd have to say that for the quality and size of the chicken pieces, the new Third Ward contender, Henderson's Chicken Shack, gets the nod this Sunday. But for the spicy crust, the lack of grease, the overall flavor and the red beans and rice, Frenchy's is the winner and still champion. Popeyes finishes a distant and pathetic third.

And as for KFC -- don't get me started again.
