Boney is a remake of the joint Pony that has a new dish to be part of the Melbourne Fried Chicken scene. We loved the japaleno donuts. They were really cool. The chicken was good too, it was boneless a crispy fried concoction but couldve been a bit more spicy. The condiments of wasabi mayo and ginger around it were interesting too.

Cookie is a favorite for the chicken scene is a must go to place for their amazing Asian fusion cuisine. However their 5 spice fried chicken wasnt a big hit for our beloved Melbourne Fried Chicken as we found it very dry to our tasting. However we highly recommend going to Cookie and getting their amazing drunken noodles and their fresh crispy spicy salads

Pacos Tacos is a great tucked away joint behind the NAB building on Bourke st. Their Tacos are really amazing. The wings were good and were coated with a semi spicy sauce. They were a good small shared appetizer. However the star here is definitely, as the name suggests, the tacos

The Napier is one of our favorite pubs that we frequent for their great Kangaroo steaks. On a hot Melbourne day we ended up going there to show our friends around and noticed that the Napier Hotel has its own Melbourne Fried Chicken offering in the form of a southern fried chicken burger so we decided to make a review of it.
Hollywood really enjoyed the burger while The Chick thought it was flawed. What drew Hollywood was the amazing crunch and plethora of flavors associated with it. It was crunchy, hot, spicy, sweet and fresh. Each bite had a dominating sweet honey flavor or a hot and spicy chipotle mayo flavor that gave an amazing contrast.
On the other hand, The Chick didnt enjoy it as much as she thought the burger was a bit too bready and the extra thick coating of the chicken made the whole meal even breadier.
The Napier is a good joint that we love, we recommend you visit this Melbourne staple and let us know what you think of their chicken burger!
