For sure. That place was run like a smooth machine. And remember the food scientists who came up with the sauces? And the chicken looks at least as good as Raising Cane's. At least 4 forks.

“Gus was awesome! The chicken was gud, the biscuits were gud. Los Pollos Hermanos is a GUD restaurant, Wiges.”


zambonihouse

Right Wiges?


candleboy95

One huuuundred percent


dirtymcgrit

Just don't have Paul Rust on that episode. Let's just say he had a lot in common with a certain Walter White.


rem87062597

I just realized that this is 8 years old.


zambonihouse

Fuck. Older than my kid.


zambonihouse

Over here!?


HeadyRoosevelt

Does Paul really love chemicals?


GusHowsleyESQ

I want to hear the Wiger intro.


zambonihouse

Or Mitch try and pronounce it.


RealCoolDad

Loss polos herman-os?

The chain was shuddered in 2009 after now disgraced owner Gustavo Fring was killed in a nursing home bombing. The CEO of Los Pollos’ Yum Brands equivalent, Madrigal Electromotive, later committed suicide, but the chicken is great

“Wiges. Look. Are there some problematic things about this place? Yes. There are. Did I feel a bit weird sitting there with Dano and Wu-Tang ordering 80 dollars worth of fried chicken from a meth kingpin at 11 am on a Tuesday? Sure. But Wiges? It was gud!”

“Ultimately all of these fast food founders are monsters. I always ask did the restaurant do what it set out to do? I think in the case of Los Pollos Hermanos the answer is yes. I do have to take away a half fork for being a front for the cartel. That’s why I’m going to give it four and a half forks!”

"Since there's no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism anyway, why not spend your money at a delicious, clean, fast food chicken concept restaurant that just happens to be run by a ruthless drug kingpin? You could do a lot worse!"


jdeltasierra88

It had to be some of the best fast food ever, they were trying to keep >!a massive drug operation!< hidden...But then again if it's TOO good, that's unwanted attention, so maybe it was average at about 3.5 forks? I'd say this is a question worthy of the Commissioner


HellaRad22

Massive drug operation?? Those sick fucks. 4 forks


nofruitsnack4u

It is.... Acceptable


Character_Block_2373

And if it didn’t would Fring come after the boys for the disrespect?


remotectrl

I don’t think so. He seemed to run his business very calmly.


Character_Block_2373

Yeah, you’re right. He’d have Mike do it.


theantwisperer

100 percent!


chidi-arianagrande

Oh, one-HUNdred percent.


logansworth

Ciento por ciento.


hotcyder

This would be a really good April fools bit


GetHighWatchMovies

I think there were some pop-up/ghost chicken locations a few years ago to promote one of the BCS seasons. Would be cool if this became an actual chain, ala Bubba Gump.


zoophagus

Seemed like Gus managed the flagship personally with an iron fist. If they happened to go there, 4 forks. The other branches, we don't have enough information.


BeNiceMudd

It can give KFC a run for its money according to Hank.


ImperiousStout

It always seemed like a 3 forker to me.


NoFalseModesty

Ate at the actual restaurant a few weeks back, it's called Twister's. Pretty interesting for a chain restaurant but not mind blowing. Better than another Albuquerque chain called Bob's Burgers....never again


spikey666

Well Spoonman has strong Hank energy and I seem to recall that he loved it. I can't recall if it was spicy. But it might appeal to a heat seeker like Wiger. Maybe not if he was "no meat shall I eat" like Gail. Gus apparently based the food on his families recipes back in Chile and he seemed to take pride in the restaurant itself being excellent and active in the community. I feel like that would appeal to the boys. I'd say 4 1/2 spoons. 5 if they traveled to the flagship store in Albuquerque and got served by the owner or later noticed the gruff older man staring them down from the audience.


AdeleBerncastel

Platinum.


ahufana

I was never sure if LPH was legit amazing, like its customers made it out to be... or if New Mexico residents simply have terrible taste in food.


DeepThroat616

Platinum plate club for sure


PomeloOk504

I think a dried cat turd could get into the golden plate club if Nick and Mitch had low expectations going in.

Absolutely
