Stephen (Tenchi) scratches his head trying to understand the phenomenon that is Pollo Campero. To make a long story short, every day when going back to the hotel from the E3 show, we would pass by this Pollo Campero restaurant that had the biggest line of people that you can imagine along with security guards and everything. This really piqued our curiosity and prompted us to guess that they were putting crack in their chicken to hook their clientele (which would explain the long lines). By the end of the show, we just couldn't help it anymore and we just had to go there to figure out what the deal was. After waiting in line for an hour, we finally got in, only to realize that it was basically like a KFC (fast food chicken). However, it turns out that the chicken was pretty darn good and I predict that this chain of restaurant will become quite popular in the US in the next few years. Hmmm.... crack chicken.... For those interested, click the following link for a more thorough explanation of the Pollo Campero phenomenon.
