Chicken republic is my first choice every time for affordable and edible meals. It might not be the best but for the price, it is very reasonable. I don't play with their chicken though, it's so nice.
Personally, THE PLACE is the best so far so good... It's really THE PLACE! Also Chicken republic's chickwizz is soooo good.. I don't like salad cream at all, but I loved it in this particular snack
The first and last time I bought fried rice at KFC, I had to add stew from my pot cos it was really bad😂 the chicken is crunchy but UNSEASONED, i think they just sprinkle black pepper on it. Chicken republic is still better but the taste differs in the branches, the one on freedom way is very nice but that one at circle mall junction, I can only manage their rice and beans😂 cooking at home is still the best❤️
This is a nice review Winnie, I think this video is a first of its kind in Nigeria ( not sure). However, the way you spat out that KFC food was bad, I'm sure no one in the country will want to enter KFC again and believe me, someone is going to lose their job in that outlet. So, please next time, even if you spat out the food, don't show it, cut that part out but still point out what was wrong with the food. Also, use the sandwich method in correcting these fast food companies, mention the things you like about them (even if its the minutest detail), the mistakes they made and end with what you like the most about their food or packaging. Please keep up the good work, I love your vlogs, your night time skin care routine, the fact that you own more than 3 successful businesses and the fact that you love GOD and you are proud to show it everywhere. You are inspiring us, please keep it up.👍
The food reach to vomit o, I have promised never to visit KFC , the fried rice was just curry and rice , no taste, the chicken was worse, I left the food with them that day and went to mama put, Chicken republic is even more manageable and price friendly, God bless you Winne
Have you ever watched food reviews? If the food is horrible then the reviewer has every right to say so as they deem fit. It's not about patting the backs of greedy businesses who like to rip off their customers but rather telling the audience the truth and saving them money. If you want to be nice go and waste 11k on trash.
Honestly In the veggies aspect chicken republic need to do more....the only thing I love about them is their chicken and affordability.....wow you were at Ikeja city mall😱 if only I sighted you 🤗...I'm a fan 💝
Love this initiative 👍. Lots of people complain of increase in the general level of prices, decline in the value of money. inflation, yet they still have that much to throw into tasteless, insipid or flavorless take aways. Nice video and initiative 👍👌. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏿. With this, I hope viewers will retrace their steps to economise. 😀. Stay blessed in God's grace as always 😇😇. ☮️❤️and 😘🤗.
Yesss, finally a Nigerian is doing this!! For some reason the fast food chains here don’t have uniformity, so food from different branches of a restaurant can taste completely different 😪
Great Lady you are a trail blazer, thanks a million billion trillion times for this fact finding video, good investigative journalism, we need more of these.this is the best video I have watched this new year, please keep doing more of this to improve the quality of things people buy outside🤣😂🤣😂
Chicken Republic has this thing with a good price and they are really doing well sometimes I've eaten from 3 of their kitchens and they have been nice...
The bucket of chicken is a scam. If you get 4 packs of rice and 2 chicken that’s 2,350x 4 = 9,400. You get 8 pieces of chicken and 3 fried rice and it’s still 500 less than the 8 piece bucket! (9,900)
Thank You Winnie for this, Well I have tried the one at Imo State,Portharcourt,and Lagos(Chicken Republic),it was really nice. Chicken Republic meals are good,their pricing is also fair.
I love Chicken Republic. Whenever I want to eat out, I go there. Their food is affordable and tasty. Thanks a lot with this review. It'll really help them improve. ❤️
Chicken republic is good, I've tasted several branches and it's okay. There could be other branches that actually don't meet with the general brand recipe... I think their management should check that. Chicken republic is really 👍🏾😊
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VIDEO IS 💯 PERCENT ACCURATE. I HAVE TASTED BOTH, I GOT ANGRY AT KFC, THEY HAD TO SUBSTITUTE THE RICE FOR 🍟. BUT CHICKEN REPUBLIC'S FOOD HAS NEVER DISAPPOINTED ME. I LOVE IT.
Chicken republic is better with d coleslaw and price is affordable with complimentary drink ✔️..KFC chicken is great,I like it ,but Sweet sensation rice meals r great,rich variety to choose from..
Chicken Republic's quality is actually based on Location Really! KFC's quality has also dropped drastically overtime. Sometimes, the chicken gets all soggy and I'd literally have to drain out the oil bfr I could eat the little I ate another time. Really, cooking can be painstaking and time taken but then there's really nothing like knowing your ONIONS
Chicken Republic is not about location ooo... I have tried different outlets belive me. It is obviuos they have one recipe. I will rather go to mama put to buy jollof rice of N400 than go through that torture anymore.
Very true about location, I visited a friend at Ajah and I went to the chicken republic at Badore, and I bought EVERY single meal I have ever eaten from chicken republic and the truth is it was way better than all I have bought on the mainland. Still remain ambassador though 😂😂 but I told them when I visited yaba outlet that why do we get less quality of food here on the mainland except for the one at opebi that still have good standard. You mention #1200 for refuel max at ICM but I get it for #1350 at yaba outlet which is currently at #1600 as at Sunday but with a bigger drink. Well I can go on and on for chicken republic anyway.
My on the go food is definitely chicken republic's rice and chicken, I always ask the attendants for the day's tastier meal i.e fried or jollof rice. For me chicken republic's burger is a big no no.
I don’t think the person went to a wrong branch, the jollof rice I had at chicken republic was horrible, the coleslaw was not good at all, I think the only thing they don’t get wrong is their sandwich, it’s so good, I’m addicted to it 😍
And reason why we do run out is bcos there is always a deadline for every food once the food use 4 hours in the cabinet and any management for headquarters comes into the restaurant and find that food you will trash all And it affect the stores That at the end it meant be redot for the manager to the team members
If you want to enjoy any meal from chicken republic, try either their rice and beans, chicken salad or meat pie and ice cream. That’s my regular menu. Their rice and beans bangs! They make the best meat pie compared to other fast food restaurants
Thank you ooo Zeelicious Foods!!! Ha! I have had chicken republic food in about 6 outlets, and it is the same terrible fried rice and jollof rice. I wondered if it was just my friends and I that thought they were bad. No taste, No veggies. Even the road side buka sells really tasty, mouth watering fried rice.
Kfc is a franchise appeals to the foreign market as well and oyinbo ppl don't like too much seasoning in their food.. i think they go by the recipe they are given, u can't compare the two because chicken Republic is a nigerian fast food chain, so it would have the nigerian authentic taste in mind
KFC doesn’t serve rice in the US. And of chicken restaurants KFC has historically been one of the more well-seasoned chains. They are probably cutting costs with what they are choosing to serve in Nigeria, because it’s definitely not the same. Truthfully though even the US locations have changed for the worst in recent years. I no longer eat there. Unless I’m in Lagos with limited options. 🤷🏽♀️
I really like your comments You can't compare the to restaurant together KFC is a foreign restaurant na and is not as if the ingredients are bought from the market, the seasoning recipe as been made so na like that them they chop am Am I guess if people don't like the food the won't be buying it
Sadly, chicken republic maintains the same recipe across all outlet including franchise, but their major problem would be underpaid staff hence they have new staff every time
I stand with Winnie on this. I made a similar RUclips Short about KFC Rice in Ibadan, Omoh, it's bad, very bad. I think they should stop making rice. I have a similar experience at KFC Landmark in VI.
I know this two brands so well....... KFC rice has always been the issue since inception. KFC import their seasoning to suit global taste while CR use home made seasoning (Veges were prepped)..... E.g in KFC you'll only see mixed veg like g/pea, sweet corn n carrot in their fried rice but CR, you'll see the red pepper + Veges(g/pea, s/corn🌽 n diced carrot) in their fried Rice 🍚
I've eaten at Chicken republic at a location in Abeokuta a few times, but the quality of the food varies so much, you don't know what to expect the next time you go. Watched this video yesterday, and decided to go buy their food today. Mehn! It was a total waste of money. The salad was just cabbage and carrots 😢 Two weeks back when I ate there, it was so good, I wanted to go back there. But after today? No. No. I'm not going back there again. Doesn't matter how cheap it is. The chicken this time was so salty. The rice tasted so bad!!! The spaghetti I made at home in the morning was wayyyyy better, and it was a very serious SAPA spaghetti. The only comfort I had was the coke drink I was given. I really wasted money today.
I never ever have fried rice outside bc it’s usually trash!!! Chicken republic jollof rice is manageable and their chicken is good depending on the branch you go to bc honestly, it tastes horrible at some branches. Their recipes might not be standardized.
Also there is always a rush hour from 12 to 2 or so,that's when office workers come for lunch ,so the meals might not be up to standard like the meals made in the morning due to rush and wanting to satisfy every customer quickly. I actually love Chicken Republic cos of their cheap price too. Enjoyed watching this video
In my own opinion, Chicken republic to me, meets the average man’s pocket and tasty as well. It’s a “EAT ON A BUDGET” kind of food. The chicken is also sizeable for the price. I started trying KFC for the first time, when it was recently opened in Port Harcourt because of how crunchy the chicken was, but not any more. Especially because of a hike in the prices. I suggest you try KFC burger. That’s the only thing I feel comfortable buying from them.
Hmm as a business person i think the challenge is that in Nigeria 1. We don't have standards in what we do. I don't think KFC in a properly organised country will serve such a meal, i doubt it. 2. Over head cost for these organisations is not cheap, but then Chicken Rep found a way to make sure monies are coming in plenty with the combo food pack. 3. Inflation in the economy adds to why ingredients or veggies are managed. 4. Despite the above challenges, these organisations do not have managers or proper chefs to handle their kitchens, because you can still bring out better out of the little available to you. 5. They have to make profits, but then they have to employ skilled workers who would do all they can to make sure the standard is up to excellence. Kudo to chicken republic at least they are fair like all the comments below and review from Winnie. Nigeria generally we have to try to do and serve better and excellently no matter the amount of money for the items sold. I hope they learn and do better, excellence is an attitude and it starts with us all.
Chicken republic is so affordable that’s why there’s is a lot of people,what is so expensive in KFC is so affordable in CHICKEN REPUBLIC ..We need more of this to put most fast food on their toes . From Genesis ,the place,Kilimanjaro etc
Girl this new and I love it. I can categorically attest to that of KFC in Ikeja mall, omo!! It's horrible, they should truly stick to chicken only. Please expose them and keep up the. Good work.
To think I’ve worked in both outlet here in Ibadan and all I can say KFC’s chicken is nice but their rice 😞🙇🏾♀️…..Chicken rep’s rice is nice but I don’t like chicken too brown for my liking.
This is why I always cook... As a student when I do the maths on how much I'd spend on restaurant food and how much it will cost me to cook at home I'd always choose cooking because I end up eating tasteless food that is not even sufficient for me. Thanks for the like
I worked with chicken Republic and I can categorically tell you that they all use one recipe,infact recipe and measurements are taught to all new staffs before delegating you to your department, everyone learns how to cook their meals when newly employed before moving you to ur department. Even the spices ,we the staffs don't know what and what is in them as they come sealed in a transparent bag all and in same quantity. The recipes and measurements are even pasted at a section of the kitchen to avoid mistakes,so while the cooking,you use a scale to measure every ingredients to use. The reason why sometimes the food don't come out the way it's supposed to come out ,it's mostly from the cook themselves,not even from the recipe. Some cooks can be so non chalant and not follow the recipe to the end. I wish you tasted chicken Republic rice and beans with sauce,mehnn you would have loved it,that's the customer's favourite and yes the grilled chicken tastes really good. I don't really like the crunchy chicken though. You can also try their chicwizz or chicken salad,it comes with an island sauce.
Hi zee,I don't know about chicken Republica but I have work with KFC although KFC has measurements for every thing be it oil,rice, veggies, tomatoes pasta and their SPICES they have their own imported ones and you have to measure a certain quantity depending on the quantity of rice, then their rice and every thing including chicken, burger has expiratory timing. So me and my colleagues use to add extra when we measure to make it taste better and also that rice you eat might have expired according to their policy. And I am telling you that if this video get to KFC authorities the manager of that store or the one on duty is gone plus the staffs if care is not taking that particular store might have problems .that is how strong their policy is.
You needed to have tasted the moi moi at Kfc as well, it was terrible sorry to say. It was as though they just cooked the bean paste without adding any seasoning. It was plain and tasteless. The only thing about their chicken was the crunchy part and nothing else. This was my experience at their Area 11 branch. Chicken republic's chicken is the best to me sha o and their rice and coleslaw I also tasted was ok with me as well though. Perhaps like you said the branch that i went did well with their coleslaw. Infact my experience with chicken republic's coleslaw began my journey to eating my rice with coleslaw as I wasn't a fan of coleslaw or salad with rice before then. This was my experience with their Zone 2 branch.
I don't eat everywhere and it won't pass if its not tasty so I understood that part where you spat the KFC rice out, I tried KFC chicken and I didn't like it because it was too crunchy and tasteless but chicken republic is my go to anytime of the day, I buy from ojodu grammar school branch near omole phase 1 and their food is really nice too even the coslaw and moimoi , I have bought at agidingbi and vi sandfill road before too...... Well-done zeelicious another nice place is mega chicken and the PLACE
Chicken republic is my first choice every time for affordable and edible meals. It might not be the best but for the price, it is very reasonable. I don't play with their chicken though, it's so nice.
Nice Nice outstanding for you 👍
Personally, THE PLACE is the best so far so good... It's really THE PLACE! Also Chicken republic's chickwizz is soooo good.. I don't like salad cream at all, but I loved it in this particular snack
Yeaa chickwizzz is the bomb but you see their foodsssss Godforbid
God bless u.. the place is the best.. chicken republic nd kfc is rubbish sorry to say
Yeah their chickwizz is really nice
Yes oo especially The Place at abule ado. Their food is 👌
I Agree, their burger is soon nice
The first and last time I bought fried rice at KFC, I had to add stew from my pot cos it was really bad😂 the chicken is crunchy but UNSEASONED, i think they just sprinkle black pepper on it. Chicken republic is still better but the taste differs in the branches, the one on freedom way is very nice but that one at circle mall junction, I can only manage their rice and beans😂 cooking at home is still the best❤️
I agree that the taste of chicken republic meals differ by places. At Bode Thomas surulere, the food is really whack😪
This is a nice review Winnie, I think this video is a first of its kind in Nigeria ( not sure). However, the way you spat out that KFC food was bad, I'm sure no one in the country will want to enter KFC again and believe me, someone is going to lose their job in that outlet.

You are inspiring us, please keep it up.👍
Yes i agree. That was not the proper way to dat it. The spatting was not necessary.
The food reach to vomit o, I have promised never to visit KFC , the fried rice was just curry and rice , no taste, the chicken was worse, I left the food with them that day and went to mama put, Chicken republic is even more manageable and price friendly, God bless you Winne
The KFC at that ICM have the worst rice meals……e really reach to vomit
What she did was right so they will sit up. They are ripping people off!
Have you ever watched food reviews? If the food is horrible then the reviewer has every right to say so as they deem fit.
It's not about patting the backs of greedy businesses who like to rip off their customers but rather telling the audience the truth and saving them money.
If you want to be nice go and waste 11k on trash.
I really love when you blog on food items and prices and locations. Thank you so much for sharing this video
What I believe is that,you can never compare an eatery food to a homemade food!!! Simple 👌
I love chicken republic
And they are not expensive at all
Their food isn't bad at all
Just the scanty veggies in their fried rice
Nice review!
Thank you!❤️
I agree
Honestly In the veggies aspect chicken republic need to do more....the only thing I love about them is their chicken and affordability.....wow you were at Ikeja city mall😱 if only I sighted you 🤗...I'm a fan 💝

Chicken Republic jollof is a hit . The last time I got a pack there there was green peas in it.
Yesss, finally a Nigerian is doing this!! For some reason the fast food chains here don’t have uniformity, so food from different branches of a restaurant can taste completely different 😪
Thank you so much Zee for this review 8 pieces of chicken for 9,900 I would have bought 2 frozen small chicken at 5,000 in cold room in Ibadan 😅😅😅.
😄😃😃😁😁😂😂Economist
You will buy some fast food and when you get home,you need to cook it with 3 cups of water and enough veggies because it will be so so strong😆🙆♂️🙆♂️
This!!!!😩😩
mad oo 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😁😁😄
That’s Kilimanjaro, I regret buying everything I bought that day
Great Lady you are a trail blazer, thanks a million billion trillion times for this fact finding video, good investigative journalism, we need more of these.this is the best video I have watched this new year, please keep doing more of this to improve the quality of things people buy outside🤣😂🤣😂
Chicken Republic has this thing with a good price and they are really doing well sometimes I've eaten from 3 of their kitchens and they have been nice...
About that time! Someone had to do it. Review and opinions fully supported...!
A very accurate video👌
Loved the honest review ❣️
❤️
The bucket of chicken is a scam. If you get 4 packs of rice and 2 chicken that’s 2,350x 4 = 9,400. You get 8 pieces of chicken and 3 fried rice and it’s still 500 less than the 8 piece bucket! (9,900)
Thank You Winnie for this,
Well I have tried the one at Imo State,Portharcourt,and Lagos(Chicken Republic),it was really nice.
Chicken Republic meals are good,their pricing is also fair.
I actually think the tastes depends on the branch. I've bought Chicken rep food that I couldn't eat before and also some very nice ones
I love Chicken Republic. Whenever I want to eat out, I go there. Their food is affordable and tasty.
Thanks a lot with this review. It'll really help them improve. ❤️
Chicken republic is good, I've tasted several branches and it's okay. There could be other branches that actually don't meet with the general brand recipe... I think their management should check that. Chicken republic is really 👍🏾😊
Chicken republic rice with beans and stew has been my best so far.
U Sabi better food
It's literally so goo
Chicken republic is very nice especially their rice and beans u will be in love with them
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VIDEO IS 💯 PERCENT ACCURATE. I HAVE TASTED BOTH, I GOT ANGRY AT KFC, THEY HAD TO SUBSTITUTE THE RICE FOR 🍟. BUT CHICKEN REPUBLIC'S FOOD HAS NEVER DISAPPOINTED ME. I LOVE IT.
Sincerely!!! I’ve been waiting for this kind of videos!!! Abeg do more! Tankiu!!❤
Wow love you girl.. this review is needed
❤❤❤❤
I feel the PLACE is the best so far.their special rice is amazing 😍🎂🎂.
Someone just sent me this videos just now i was captured attending to u😍😍 i actually sensed something like this day tho😁 kudos❤
Very accurate abeg
No let anybody tell you otherwise
Kfc is rubbish compared to chicken Republic
I love your honest opinion Zee. I've tasted both and I totally agree with You.
❤️❤️❤️
Lmao Winnie was over everything 😂😂😂
I’m sorry sis 😂
As in!😂😂 Thank you!!❤❤
Chicken republic is better with d coleslaw and price is affordable with complimentary drink ✔️..KFC chicken is great,I like it ,but Sweet sensation rice meals r great,rich variety to choose from..
The place and Tasty Fried Chicken food, too good! 😍
KFC is my guilty pleasure food. Here in South Africa 🇿🇦 it's quite good . . I like it so much
I have tried kfc in SA…really good!!👍🏼👍🏼
Please can the chef who made the jollof rice in chicken republic come to owerri and teach the chef there
Do these for more food brands so they can improve
Will definitely do!
Chicken Republic's quality is actually based on Location Really!
KFC's quality has also dropped drastically overtime. Sometimes, the chicken gets all soggy and I'd literally have to drain out the oil bfr I could eat the little I ate another time.
Really, cooking can be painstaking and time taken but then there's really nothing like knowing your ONIONS
The last paragraph!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
A business is sustained by quality and consistency in service delivery…
Chicken Republic is not about location ooo... I have tried different outlets belive me. It is obviuos they have one recipe.
I will rather go to mama put to buy jollof rice of N400 than go through that torture anymore.
Very true about location, I visited a friend at Ajah and I went to the chicken republic at Badore, and I bought EVERY single meal I have ever eaten from chicken republic and the truth is it was way better than all I have bought on the mainland. Still remain ambassador though 😂😂 but I told them when I visited yaba outlet that why do we get less quality of food here on the mainland except for the one at opebi that still have good standard.
You mention #1200 for refuel max at ICM but I get it for #1350 at yaba outlet which is currently at #1600 as at Sunday but with a bigger drink.
Well I can go on and on for chicken republic anyway.
Yes it’s about the location
I have tried different outlets of chicken republic and I can say it’s about the Location
Exactly
The chicken republic at Egbeda is also nice.
Mega chicken is the best
No doubt...
Palatable meals 😍
I will try their meals…
My on the go food is definitely chicken republic's rice and chicken, I always ask the attendants for the day's tastier meal i.e fried or jollof rice. For me chicken republic's burger is a big no no.
Chicken republic is the same everywhere... I tried opebi and ikeja in lagos.. Like 4 locations in ibadan and osogbo.. All taste the same
Me just admiring your beauty 😍 thank you for sharing
Awwwww….thank you!!❤️❤️❤️
According to my friend "they stay far and throw the veggies into the pot so anyone that enters fine and good"
I don’t think the person went to a wrong branch, the jollof rice I had at chicken republic was horrible, the coleslaw was not good at all, I think the only thing they don’t get wrong is their sandwich, it’s so good, I’m addicted to it 😍
The jollof rice taste differe from outlet to outlet actually. The fried rice, I am not a fan of at all.
🤔
I like CR. The Jollof, moi moi and chicken is my favourite combo
From my experience so far, I don't see my self buying rice in a restaurant anymore. Always regret wasting money.
Always best to cook at home.
Thank you for this honest review
Love you ma❤️
And reason why we do run out is bcos there is always a deadline for every food once the food use 4 hours in the cabinet and any management for headquarters comes into the restaurant and find that food you will trash all
And it affect the stores
That at the end it meant be redot for the manager to the team members
My son said, if you're eating too much rice you should give him. That was his respond when you said you're eating too much rice😀😀😀
I definitely prefer Chicken Republic too
If you want to enjoy any meal from chicken republic, try either their rice and beans, chicken salad or meat pie and ice cream. That’s my regular menu. Their rice and beans bangs! They make the best meat pie compared to other fast food restaurants
Yes, their meatpie and chicken pies Are superb
Chicken Republic is probably one of the best fast food outlets in Nigeria, it's affordable and ok at least mainly affordable 😂
Thank you so much sis for the review now I know when to get food and not where going to Lagos
❤❤❤
Thank you ooo Zeelicious Foods!!! Ha! I have had chicken republic food in about 6 outlets, and it is the same terrible fried rice and jollof rice. I wondered if it was just my friends and I that thought they were bad. No taste, No veggies. Even the road side buka sells really tasty, mouth watering fried rice.
It's edible!😂 thank God..
I laughed through the video😂
Kfc is a franchise appeals to the foreign market as well and oyinbo ppl don't like too much seasoning in their food.. i think they go by the recipe they are given, u can't compare the two because chicken Republic is a nigerian fast food chain, so it would have the nigerian authentic taste in mind
The rice was bad bad! No foreign person will eat that! It was bad!
@@ZeeliciousFoods o okay it most be bad management
KFC doesn’t serve rice in the US. And of chicken restaurants KFC has historically been one of the more well-seasoned chains. They are probably cutting costs with what they are choosing to serve in Nigeria, because it’s definitely not the same. Truthfully though even the US locations have changed for the worst in recent years. I no longer eat there. Unless I’m in Lagos with limited options. 🤷🏽♀️
I really like your comments
You can't compare the to restaurant together KFC is a foreign restaurant na and is not as if the ingredients are bought from the market, the seasoning recipe as been made so na like that them they chop am
Am I guess if people don't like the food the won't be buying it
Sadly, chicken republic maintains the same recipe across all outlet including franchise, but their major problem would be underpaid staff hence they have new staff every time
This is another issue…
I stand with Winnie on this. I made a similar RUclips Short about KFC Rice in Ibadan, Omoh, it's bad, very bad. I think they should stop making rice. I have a similar experience at KFC Landmark in VI.
A truthful review not biased at all!
I know this two brands so well....... KFC rice has always been the issue since inception. KFC import their seasoning to suit global taste while CR use home made seasoning (Veges were prepped)..... E.g in KFC you'll only see mixed veg like g/pea, sweet corn n carrot in their fried rice but CR, you'll see the red pepper + Veges(g/pea, s/corn🌽 n diced carrot) in their fried Rice 🍚
What you bought for 1,200 in chicken republic is 4,000 here in ikorodu
Same chicken republic
I've eaten at Chicken republic at a location in Abeokuta a few times, but the quality of the food varies so much, you don't know what to expect the next time you go.

Thanks for the review at least people will learn and know how and where to spend there money or maybe cook there food👌🏼💖
This review is so apt.
I never ever have fried rice outside bc it’s usually trash!!! Chicken republic jollof rice is manageable and their chicken is good depending on the branch you go to bc honestly, it tastes horrible at some branches. Their recipes might not be standardized.

I actually love Chicken Republic cos of their cheap price too. Enjoyed watching this video
You have really improve me by watching your video
Chicken republic is very considerate when it's comes to budget.
In my own opinion, Chicken republic to me, meets the average man’s pocket and tasty as well. It’s a “EAT ON A BUDGET” kind of food. The chicken is also sizeable for the price. I started trying KFC for the first time, when it was recently opened in Port Harcourt because of how crunchy the chicken was, but not any more. Especially because of a hike in the prices.
I suggest you try KFC burger. That’s the only thing I feel comfortable buying from them.
Yes KFC's burger is gooood!!
Hmm as a business person i think the challenge is that in Nigeria
1. We don't have standards in what we do. I don't think KFC in a properly organised country will serve such a meal, i doubt it.
2. Over head cost for these organisations is not cheap, but then Chicken Rep found a way to make sure monies are coming in plenty with the combo food pack.
3. Inflation in the economy adds to why ingredients or veggies are managed.
4. Despite the above challenges, these organisations do not have managers or proper chefs to handle their kitchens, because you can still bring out better out of the little available to you.
5. They have to make profits, but then they have to employ skilled workers who would do all they can to make sure the standard is up to excellence.
Kudo to chicken republic at least they are fair like all the comments below and review from Winnie.
Nigeria generally we have to try to do and serve better and excellently no matter the amount of money for the items sold.
I hope they learn and do better, excellence is an attitude and it starts with us all.
Chicken republic is so affordable that’s why there’s is a lot of people,what is so expensive in KFC is so affordable in CHICKEN REPUBLIC ..We need more of this to put most fast food on their toes . From Genesis ,the place,Kilimanjaro etc
I don’t understand why they call it fried rice without veggies.. I stick with just the chicken at KFC
My only disappointment is that chicken Republic don't make crispy fried chicken 😔. And Winnie you will make a scary food critic though 😏
This is very nice…..I have tasted ICM chicken republic and I must say their for is really nice
Girl this new and I love it. I can categorically attest to that of KFC in Ikeja mall, omo!! It's horrible, they should truly stick to chicken only. Please expose them and keep up the. Good work.
I agree with you 100% ! Thank you
❤❤❤
Thanks for doing this❤️
To think I’ve worked in both outlet here in Ibadan and all I can say KFC’s chicken is nice but their rice 😞🙇🏾♀️…..Chicken rep’s rice is nice but I don’t like chicken too brown for my liking.
This is why I always cook... As a student when I do the maths on how much I'd spend on restaurant food and how much it will cost me to cook at home I'd always choose cooking because I end up eating tasteless food that is not even sufficient for me.
Thanks for the like
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I worked with chicken Republic and I can categorically tell you that they all use one recipe,infact recipe and measurements are taught to all new staffs before delegating you to your department, everyone learns how to cook their meals when newly employed before moving you to ur department. Even the spices ,we the staffs don't know what and what is in them as they come sealed in a transparent bag all and in same quantity. The recipes and measurements are even pasted at a section of the kitchen to avoid mistakes,so while the cooking,you use a scale to measure every ingredients to use. The reason why sometimes the food don't come out the way it's supposed to come out ,it's mostly from the cook themselves,not even from the recipe. Some cooks can be so non chalant and not follow the recipe to the end. I wish you tasted chicken Republic rice and beans with sauce,mehnn you would have loved it,that's the customer's favourite and yes the grilled chicken tastes really good. I don't really like the crunchy chicken though. You can also try their chicwizz or chicken salad,it comes with an island sauce.
Thank you❤
You are right,their rice and beans with sauce is my favorite
You said it all I worked with chicken republic before
You are right.
The rice and beans is very very nice. That's my favorite.
The moi moi too is great
When I was 11 I went to Chicken Republic and it was nice
Hi zee,I don't know about chicken Republica but I have work with KFC although KFC has measurements for every thing be it oil,rice, veggies, tomatoes pasta and their SPICES they have their own imported ones and you have to measure a certain quantity depending on the quantity of rice, then their rice and every thing including chicken, burger has expiratory timing. So me and my colleagues use to add extra when we measure to make it taste better and also that rice you eat might have expired according to their policy. And I am telling you that if this video get to KFC authorities the manager of that store or the one on duty is gone plus the staffs if care is not taking that particular store might have problems .that is how strong their policy is.
I worked in chicken republic for 1years &7 month the only issue we have at times we as a cook when we run out of food
We totally cook rubbish
Well said ma'am.
❤❤❤❤
Where are your sunglasses from please?
You needed to have tasted the moi moi at Kfc as well, it was terrible sorry to say. It was as though they just cooked the bean paste without adding any seasoning. It was plain and tasteless. The only thing about their chicken was the crunchy part and nothing else. This was my experience at their Area 11 branch.
Chicken republic's chicken is the best to me sha o and their rice and coleslaw I also tasted was ok with me as well though. Perhaps like you said the branch that i went did well with their coleslaw.
Infact my experience with chicken republic's coleslaw began my journey to eating my rice with coleslaw as I wasn't a fan of coleslaw or salad with rice before then. This was my experience with their Zone 2 branch.
Yeah, that of the chicken republic is cheaper in my area in the East
Please do The Place!!! I can kill for their food 🌚 then maybe Dominos jollof next 😂
That The Place ehn, my fav meal is spaghetti and asun and plantain!!!!
@@DeeDee_603 a woman of culture 🥂. Their asun is 😍😍😍 and the stir-fry spaghetti 🍝😍😍😍

You gave your honest opinion winnei chicken republic food test nice and really pocket friendly
But KFC is a no no no for me
Chicken republic has one recipe for all branches
I don't eat everywhere and it won't pass if its not tasty so I understood that part where you spat the KFC rice out, I tried KFC chicken and I didn't like it because it was too crunchy and tasteless but chicken republic is my go to anytime of the day, I buy from ojodu grammar school branch near omole phase 1 and their food is really nice too even the coslaw and moimoi , I have bought at agidingbi and vi sandfill road before too...... Well-done zeelicious another nice place is mega chicken and the PLACE
