Could this be the start of another Fast Food Chicken Wars? There is a new addition to the fast food chicken nuggets. This time it's from Kentucky Fried Chicken or KFC, the restaurant is introducing the chicken nuggets at select Charlotte area locations.

Just like the classic KFC meals, the nuggets are served in the Original Recipe style. That means the 100% white meat nuggets are breaded and seasoned in the classic 11 herbs & spices. They make their debut today, July 18th. You can purchase the KFC chicken nuggets in 8, 12, and 36-piece servings. And like any good nugget, you'll have your choice of dipping sauces as well.

Whether I'm on vacation or just looking for a night out I love an outdoor patio. There is nothing better than the atmosphere of a wonderful outdoor cocktail and meal. That's why I was so intrigued by Open Table's latest list- the 100 Best Restaurants for Al Fresco Dining. And while many are in places like California, New York, and Florida they aren't all. In fact, 4 North Carolina restaurants ranked as some of the best for outdoor dining in the country. Not bad, NC, not bad.

Another interesting statistic was that due to the pandemic reservations for outdoor dining increased nationwide by 54%. This list was based on over 13.6 million reviews on OpenTable. These 100 spots feature restaurants with impeccable food, picturesque views, and an all-around top-notch outdoor dining experience. I've only visited one of the 4 North Carolina top places for outdoor dining. None are in Charlotte- one in Asheville, one in Calabash, and the other two- in Greensboro. That surprised me! I guess I'll add these to the list the next time I make the drive to a concert at the Greensboro Coliseum.

Our South Carolina neighbor also has a few spots on this list in tourist hotspots Charleston and Hilton Head. You can read through the list below in no particular order. The North Carolina restaurants are listed first followed by South Carolina, then the rest of the 100 are listed in alphabetical order.
