» Frenchy's Chicken

Frenchy's Chicken is a walk-up eatery serving highly coveted fried chicken and Cajun sides.

Frenchy Creuzot's unassuming walk-up operation located a couple blocks away from the University of Houston's main campus has been a culinary institution since the late 1960s. UH students, neighborhood residents and devotees from 30 miles away wait patiently for their orders.

Cayenne-flecked, lick-your-fingers-good fried chicken anchors the simple menu, either by the piece or with side-order options that include spicy red jambalaya, soulful collard greens, dirty rice, and red beans and rice. The subtle, smoky sausage is almost as exceptional as the chicken.

There are a few picnic tables under the aluminum awning for those who wish to eat on the premises. This has been a favorite hangout for Houston Rockets after practice.
