Swank KFC bar offers fried chicken with a side of whiskey

4/28/2012

Not that you need another reason to pack up your things and move to Japan (Temples! Cherry blossoms! Sushi-making robots!), but KFC -- as in Kentucky Fried Chicken -- is opening a swank bar at the top of their three-story restaurant in Tokyo. KFC Route 25 (named after U.S. Route 25, which runs through the original Sanders Café in Kentucky) will feature whiskey cocktails, a fully stocked bar, a pizza with cheese AND maple syrup on the menu, and of course all the crispy fried chicken you can keep down when you're tipsy. Their website describes it as a "good-old USA" approach to bartending hospitality. Can we book tickets tonight?!

Do you think whiskey and fried chicken go together?
