Dicos is a huge fast food fried chicken chain from Mainland China and now has entered the Hong Kong market. It's their answer to KFC. When it first opened, I read a lot of negative reviews.

But I was still curious.
A branch opened in Wanchai, an area closer to where I live. It was a 2 minute walk away from Jollibee and McDonald's. The price on the window announced that after tea time, they offered sets starting at $10. Why not give it a try? See how bad it really is?
Inside it was very clean with cute hip signage all in English.
The menu at the counter is in Chinese (I can't tell you if it's in Simplified or Traditional Chinese because I can't read Chinese) with English (in tinier print). You can order at the cashier or you can use one touch screen ordering system that is in both English and Chinese. The system is a bit slow so don't poke it so fast but it got me what I needed without speaking because I feared they would speak Puttonghua which I cannót understand. They had the really super cheap tea sets along with regular sets which were also very inexpensive. All under $50. They served fried chicken in both spicy and non spicy along with fried chicken burgers and curry rice.
I came here for the super cheap tea set of two fried chicken tenderloins burger for $19. This came with a regular soft drink. This was decent. Then bun was sweet and fluffy and reminded me of the bun they used in Freshness Burger. It didn't fall apart. There was plenty of mayo. The lettuce was not fresh and crisp. The chicken (though a small hint of spicy but not too much) was juicy and the coating was very crunchy. This was better than the fried chicken burger in all the other competing fried chicken places and for a far cheaper price.
Boyfriend was wary and said he wasn't going to try but then he ordered more food than me?! He ordered the fried chicken set for $21. Then he added fried chicken fries for $10 because he was curious. The fried chicken was very god. Juicy and the coating was very crispy. The chicken fries on the other hand were disgusting. Soggy and just tasted like mush. The moral of this story? Only order the fried chicken and stay away from the strange things they self-created.
Price is cheap and the staff speak Cantonese. I guess they changed their marketing tactic since they first arrived. Price is cheap enough for a repeat.
