Im from Asia and i really wanted to visit Claudia Sanders Dinner House after hearing Colonel Sanders story and try the real KFC chicken cuz KFC is one of my favorite tho i only tasted the todays/new era of KFC since im 18 but looking at those chicked those looks more tasty fr
Been a long time since I've been there, but I remember the beauty of the place; very impressive! Those chicken and dumplings looked delish, I love 'em, and that fried chicken is more my style too, thin breading. Bread pudding and cobblers are both my faves! Have to get the family together for a trip to Claudia Sanders! Good video, Barry, very interesting, thanks
The gravy also changed while i worked there mid 90's.. the prior version was darker, and we would add seasoned oil from the fryer as part of the recipe
Maybe they changed it due to some health issues or simply removed the oil as deep frying raw chicken and adding the oil would probably give someone salmonella
I used to try to get 1 spoonful of each side on my plate at the buffet, but just couldn't when it was 19 sides before meats. Think it's a fewer sides now, but I still can't fit 1 spoonful on a plate. 😂 So now I do the family style like you had. They also have great hamburgers and steaks on menu (not available Sundays). Steaks tasted char-broiled. Delicious. Their yeast rolls are heavenly soft/good. Good to see the review! Thanks!
I started following you about 2yrs ago. I have enjoyed every one of your reviews. So keep up with your reviews and support of local restaurants. You are really awesome and your reviews great. I've become a big fan. Blessings and Love
I appreciate you following my channel. Thank you for reaching out with the kind words. It really means a lot. Sometimes I feel I’m wasting my time but then somebody like you reached out and let’s me know it’s all worthwhile.
Everything looks great, I wish I wasn't homeless and poor I'll be there Sunday... One day hopefully I can try that good cooking. Thanks for the review!!!
This is such a great review! The food looks so delicious! The chicken didn’t look like a fried dough ball and glad to know the gravy didn’t taste like wallpaper paste 😅 Thanks for the review!
If you ever get to Michigan, we have a couple restaurants in Frakenmuth called either the Bavarian Inn or Zehnders. They are known for their chicken and also rift before those restaurants Frankenmuth has the largest Christmas store in America called Bronners!
they must francise this to Malaysia.................KFC taste never be the same like first appearance in 80s............we really need this restaurant concept in KL!!!!
@@goodallscountrykitchen If you know of any good Southern style restaurant in California, let me know! I will say we have a lot of great Asian and Mexican food.
We ate there about 4 months ago. Sunday buffet was plenty good but the stewed tomatoes was the hit. The chicken was ok. The carved beef was dry. The side dishes were the bomb.
Kentucky Fried Chicken ended when they went to KFC. Some things were changed and the food has never been as good since. Except for the coleslaw and the biscuits. But this looked fantastic!
I never heard of A Hot Brown so I wouldn’t know a good one from a terrible one. I would give it a try. Definitely regional food that typically isn’t served in western Pa. Glad you like hot sauce because I noticed that it’s Ranch Dressing on everything!!! I wonder if there’s a Ranch flavored ice cream 🍦? I absolutely dislike Ranch, sorry I don’t mean to upset the Rancher’s! ❤
How is no one mentioning your intro dance?! I love it, the tune gets me RIGHT into a vibe and the dance is funky too woooh 😄 💃 If it's not too personal a question, may i ask where your accent is from? I'm Australian. If i went to your country i believe I'd have an accent to you, if that makes sense? May i know your accent? I had a look online at the menu, if i get to being there, i think I'll need a few days to taste everything there, as I'd like to try most everything. I have a weakness for bread and many comments at saying the yeast rolls there are amazing, so that alone would be a hurdle for me hehe😂 Thanks for showing the restaurant and meals to me over in Australia 😄
You are very welcome. Those are old dance moves from the 1980’s. I am from Louisville, Kentucky. I have lived here my entire life. We have mostly southern/country accents here. The Chicken House has some of the best yeast rolls you’ll ever have. That place is a great example of down home, country Cookin. Thank you so much for following my channel. Let me know if you ever come to this area and I’ll meet up with you for lunch. Take care. Barry Goodall
Mr. Goodall what is a dark brown, I never heard of that dish! That creamed spinach looked good. Looks like the food served in grammar school back in the '60's. And no one beats Colonel Sanders fried chicken. Enjoy!!
Col. Sanders was the FIRST celebrity chef! A good friend of mine bought a Karmann Ghia that had belonged to his personal assistant, she often drove the Colonel around in it. Hard to picture the Colonel riding around in a powder-blue Karmann Ghia!
I miss Johnies Fried Chicken, sorry to see these old school places go. Restaurants are either so corporate or somebody gets so Bunche’ that its not the good food that it should be.
I worked there in the late 80s. The original restaurant burned down in May 1999. Do a search online and the news story will come up and video of the fire. The things I saw working there I could tell would shock people. There is food on the menu today that wasn't sold back in the 1980s. Several food items have been added since.
Now I'm really hungry! Does KFC deliver? I live in FL now and won't be going up north this year. But, next time I do, I will stop in for lunch. All looks freekin delicous!
Love your videos, your sense of humor, and the country food. I would like to hear a brief prayer before the meal. I can tell you are a Christian man, demonstrate your faith publicly and see what God does!
KFC would have been way more popular if they kept this recipe I haven’t had it but I can already tell it’s way better then there current mediocre ass chicken I would like to come to this place for better then mediocre.
Yeah I am one of those people too, don’t serve me no breast 😂😂😂😂😂 I stop visiting a certain local Popeyes for half a year because they goofed and gave me a breast 😅 Just keep it thighs, legs and wings 😂😂😂😂😂 The food here look very good 👍🏾 I always heard that Claudia Sanders was more of the unfiltered version of Colonel Sanders or Kentucky Fried Chicken. The expanded options are cool. Appreciate this review 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you for reaching out. I wish I would have waited to do the review tomorrow for the Sunday buffet. I could have shown more entrees. But then again, chicken is the focus at this place.
@@goodallscountrykitchen Indeed the chicken 🐓 🐓🐓 is the key focus. Our great tradition of comfort/soul food 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Cool to know they do pork chops !!!! Those sides looked amazing too. Was there Mac and cheese on the menu ?
I don’t recall seeing Mac-n-cheese but can’t swear it’s not on the menu. I told my server to use her judgement and bring me the second round of sides. Sorry.
There are restrictions from a lawsuit back in the 70’s between KFC and Col. Ssnders. That’s why they had to change the name of the restaurant from “Colonels Lady” to “Claudia Sanders”. They can’t use the Colonel’s name in any way. It’s word of mouth in the chicken recipe.
You are like me pal, I like thighs and legs, breadt my least fave, I like the 1st round of sides best, corporations ruined KFC, their chix pieces are the size of quail, their pot pie is the best thing they have now on the menu at the corp. KFC
It's like being at Grandma's for Sunday dinner
Grandma’s house on steroids!
Thanks for mentioning the service! It’s important like the meal ! ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely! You’re welcome.

Better go soon theyre selling the place
@@leemagaming696really?!! When??
Are you a big fan of the chicken or just an interest in the story? It truly is a fascinating story

Thanks Barry for this review. I'm originally from Simpsonville and enjoyed eating lunch there many times....soup/salad bar was great.
I’m glad you liked it! It’s a good thing I don’t live closer to Claudia Sanders or I’d be 400 pounds.😁
Awesome review mate, will have to head out there one day!
Everything looks great, I wish I wasn't homeless and poor I'll be there Sunday... One day hopefully I can try that good cooking. Thanks for the review!!!
I saw that Claudia Sanders was hiring. You could get a job there and probably get free food and make enough money to be able to find a place to live.
I find a job two weeks ago.
@@MrGoddlie congratulations man🎉
Absolutely awesome. I hope the future owners keep everything the way it is right now until I can get there.
Wow. Looks awesome!
It all was really good. Love the drive out there too.
All of it looks soooooo good!
Wow 👌 everything looked so delicious 😋
Yes, it was great!
This is such a great review! The food looks so delicious! The chicken didn’t look like a fried dough ball and glad to know the gravy didn’t taste like wallpaper paste 😅
Thanks for the review!
Thank you for watching! Yes, it was all delicious.
That bread pudding looks amazing! Yum!
It was excellent!
Looks amazing!!
And the building is beautiful especially the chandaleer
Ali
It really is!
The food looks like it's homemade I bet it's delicious it looks so good making me hungry for southern fried chicken and the homemade sides
You have to go for the all you can eat chicken dinner. It’s not a buffet. They just keep bringing you anything you want.
I've been there maybe 12 year's ago. It was very good, home style cooking. The Shelbyville Ky. area is nice.
Yes, very pictures drive.
Nice one Brother, Nice one
Thank you. I was there yesterday.
Excellent review my friend!
Thank you!
That corn pudding and cream spinach has got to go; and take the stewed tomatoes with them! 😝 the meal looks great honestly! Nicely cooked!
OMG. YUM! There are those breaded tomatoes. Karla in Cali
Very tasty!
Love the place the food is always good..
Definitely!
Looks so yummy 😋
If you ever get to Michigan, we have a couple restaurants in Frakenmuth called either the Bavarian Inn or Zehnders. They are known for their chicken and also rift before those restaurants Frankenmuth has the largest Christmas store in America called Bronners!
Thank you for the info. If o get up tgat way I’ll be sure and check them out.
Love Claudias! I worked there in high school. All three of my boys worked there in high school as well!
The hot brown is Great!!
I love that place. Ihope whoever buys it continues the tradition[.
Hi, we want to visit. How do you compare it to the new KFC?
they must francise this to Malaysia.................KFC taste never be the same like first appearance in 80s............we really need this restaurant concept in KL!!!!
I did not know that as a malaysian, i only know that the chicken is smaller now then the 2000s.
Watching this made me hungry as hell. Never even heard of hot browns or corn pudding before. Wish I lived near this place!
You definitely are not from Kentucky. Hot Browns are popular, especially in z Louisville where they were invented.
I’m glad it made you hungry too. I must be doing my job.
@@goodallscountrykitchen I wonder if any place in Los Angeles does a good job making them.
I doubt if anybody out there serves them. Probably never heard of hot browns.
@@goodallscountrykitchen If you know of any good Southern style restaurant in California, let me know! I will say we have a lot of great Asian and Mexican food.
I will be checking it out very soon great review as always
Thank you! I’ll be uploading a review you’re definitely going to need to follow up on. Señora Arepa’s. Sone of the best tasting food I ever had.
There not open I don't think because there selling it
Watch the video
@@MrGoddlie I explain about that in the video. They are not closed.
My favorite restaurant! Unfortunately, I don't get to go there very often.
We ate there about 4 months ago. Sunday buffet was plenty good but the stewed tomatoes was the hit. The chicken was ok. The carved beef was dry. The side dishes were the bomb.

Man that fried chicken ..and chicken an dumplins I'd be doing backward cartwheels lol🤣💯
I actually met the Col. In the parking lot in 1963 when about 6 years old.
I met him in 1979 at my middle school as I escorted him to the auditorium to speak to the school.
Met him with my Dad

Never heard of a dark brown.
the original recepy of KFC
Yes
I like the country rap intro and outro.
Thank you!
Col. Sanders was the FIRST celebrity chef! A good friend of mine bought a Karmann Ghia that had belonged to his personal assistant, she often drove the Colonel around in it. Hard to picture the Colonel riding around in a powder-blue Karmann Ghia!
His personal assistant now owns Claudia Sanders..
Wow! Cool! Thanks!@@goodallscountrykitchen
@@goodallscountrykitchenis that true? Would love to hear her stories.
@@GP_Blend yes
Mornay sauce Barry, Mornay. I remember the old law suits when I was a kid
Is that the hot brown
Wow. That looks like some fine American dining. 🤯
It’s great food and very cool atmosphere.
Great food and service, love every visit there. I hope if it changes hands everything remains the same.
I know what you mean. That’s why when I heard it was for sale I made a special trip to get out there.
That how kfc was back in the day
that photo looks like home❤❤❤❤❤
Down home!
Wow this is the swankiest place you have ever reviewed. I would love to eat there.
It’s pretty nice. But yes, I try not to get too fancy on my review stops. It’s a very picturesque drive also.
👍
I guess it'd be good to try once for nostalogic sake but for $18+ i wouldn't make it a regular for sure.
If you could eat as much chicken as me you’d be going back often.
I miss Johnies Fried Chicken, sorry to see these old school places go. Restaurants are either so corporate or somebody gets so Bunche’ that its not the good food that it should be.
In Claudia’s case, the owners are old and want to retire.
@@goodallscountrykitchen they don't have successor
@@someguywithabirdface2583 their kids aren’t interested.
Will you be selling this resturant to yum brands anytime soon

It is soooooo good! Now you got me wanting to go back!
I Heard That Crunch!!!
I'm hungry now.
My job is done! lol!!
Original KFC 😊👍🏻
is it better than kfc? because kfc makes me feel sick/yuck whenever i eat it
Way better
No comparison!
It’s Becaus it’s the original recipe of kfc made by colonel sander’s
It's not greasy at all. Everytime I try the chicken im surprised how juicy the chicken is.
That's a lot of food!
How much was it & did you go on sunday for the buffet?
All you can eat chicken and sides for $18.50. I went on Saturday for lunch.
@@goodallscountrykitchen Thanks again, do you ever give scores out of 10 on food?
@@goodallscountrykitchen seems like a nice deal
Do they still serve the mock oysters?
I did not see that on the menu, but I was only looking at the fried chicken section. Sorry.
Yes they do!
Love your videos, your sense of humor, and the country food. I would like to hear a brief prayer before the meal. I can tell you are a Christian man, demonstrate your faith publicly and see what God does!
God is Blessing me more everyday. I am private with my prayers, but rest assured I talk to The Lord every day.
God is Blessing me more everyday. I am private with my prayers, but rest assured I talk to The Lord every day.
sunday dinner 7 days a week
Whats a hot round?
Hot Brown. Turkey on Texas toast, smothered in mornay sauce, bacon and tomatoes on top. All baked like a mini-casserole.
KFC would have been way more popular if they kept this recipe I haven’t had it but I can already tell it’s way better then there current mediocre ass chicken I would like to come to this place for better then mediocre.
It’s awesome. Everything.
@@goodallscountrykitchen forgot to put it’s in my sentence my grammer can be bad sometimes for my age sorry 😅 but yeah I wanna go there!
@@imNoahTBH Ill be the last one that’s going to fault you on your grammar.
Are they still open? Would love to travel there someday.
Yes, still open. It’s for sale but probably not going to sell for a long time. I heard they were asking $9,000,000.
Still open!!

It burnt down coach. Then rebuilt

The real taste of colonel senders fried chicken original resipi, not the low quality and cut cost version of kfc resipi nowdays
Amen!
Wowww, after one year, you still reply my comment😂. Did not expect that.
Thank you, Appreciate it.
@@aliey9330 I appreciate you following and reaching out with your input.
If someone is smart, they'll buy that place just for the Colonel Sanders' original recipe. Imagine what that alone is worth. You could franchise it.
There are restrictions from a lawsuit back in the 70’s between KFC and Col. Ssnders. That’s why they had to change the name of the restaurant from “Colonels Lady” to “Claudia Sanders”. They can’t use the Colonel’s name in any way. It’s word of mouth in the chicken recipe.
@@goodallscountrykitchenI had not heard that before but I do know about the issues between Col. Sanders and the corporation
Man kfc could take a few lessons from this place starting with their fried chicken
Thats the truth!
You are like me pal, I like thighs and legs, breadt my least fave, I like the 1st round of sides best, corporations ruined KFC, their chix pieces are the size of quail, their pot pie is the best thing they have now on the menu at the corp. KFC
Yes, I agree. The first round were my choices. I left it up to the server on the second round. But the mash potatoes and gravy were to die for!!!!
How in the world can you eat so much
I go into a frenzy.
You are killing me, no way I can afford to make that. US Sucks
?
Ate here a few years ago. Very disappointed in the flavor of the chicken. You would think that Colonel would have jacked the flavor up!
lol!!
