Lao Alternatives - KFC

As evidenced by this post, I really enjoy a good piece of fried chicken. Though there is a KFC right across the border in Nong Khai, Thailand, I don't often get there (border crossings are not my favorite). And when I do, the price of one piece of chicken seems outrageous compared to an entire plate of delicious Phad Thai.

About a year and a half ago, it seemed Laos was getting its own Kentucky Fried Chicken, but it turned out that the sign was being used illegally and was soon taken down.

That being said, Laos does have its own version of KFC:

Kuvieng Fried Chicken! It has a bit less meat and a bit more cartilage and skin, but it's still quite delicious when you're craving something fried and chickeny.
