After leaving Birmingham I planned on having a late lunch in Memphis. We had driven straight through Memphis a couple of times and I wanted to check it out a little more. The downtown area had obviously hit bottom pretty hard, but it was on its way back up, with patches of new development between boarded up places. And the view of the river was amazing, with the bridges and even a riverboat chugging by.
In addition, Gus' Fried Chicken had shown up on a national list, so I thought I would give it a try. The coating on the outside is smoother than usual, but thicker and more substantial. It was a little spicier than I would normally choose, but it made it work. It was real tasty with an interesting texture, and kept the chicken inside very juicy.
