Hollywood and the Chick and Co went to Miss Katie’s Crab Shack new location in Melbourne CBD.We previously tried their chicken in their Victoria St location and it was generally OK but it was time to check out if their Melbourne Fried Chicken offering has upped its game.

We ordered a whole lotta things: Fried chicken, crabs, salads, fries, fried tomatoes. We were a bit worried we ordered too much. There was literally no room for the food coming out on our table!

The chicken came out hot, freshly cooked and steamy. The crispy crunch was definitely there and the spices were present. We really did enjoy the chicken. However they were trumped by the fried green tomatoes.

While the chicken was good, there was nothing really that stood out about it. The real stars of Miss Katie’s were the fried tomatoes and the crabs (as the name of the place suggests).

Have the chicken if you are around/there but don’t make a dedicated trip for it
