I can't believe no one has reviewed Uncle Sam's yet! It's a bit of a classic American fast food…read moretakeaway right in the heart of Studentville, on Crwys Road (in Cathays/Roath). It has been going for years, and has managed to hold on to its fine reputation for decent quality and value for money throughout that time. It IS rather tiny, however, so it's possible you could easily walk past and miss it - but once you've been there once for food, you'll be a complete convert. Basically, they do American fast food - mainly burgers. It's not healthy, and it's not complicated, but what they do they do very well. The belly-busting All American 1/2 pound burger with fries and a tub of blue cheese sauce seems to go down well with meat-eaters, while there's a generously proportioned veggie option for people like me who don't eat beef. They also do chicken and pizza, but to be honest if you go to Uncle Sam's it should be for a burger, because that's what they do best. Excellent value for money!

The restaurant is tiny and like other reviews have said it so easy to miss, so its beggars belief how such a small place can churn out such big and hearty portions of food. The price is ok but that is completely offset by taste of the food, as the juicy and flavourful chicken engulfs your taste buds. Of course chicken is not for everyone and they do have plenty of other dishes on the menu such as huge burgers (which have appeared to been given a real shout in other reviews) and pizza but honestly I personally think Uncle Sam's rules the roost!

Coming from the Southern US, where chicken frying is an art (we even deep-fry the Thanksgiving…read moreturkey), I must admit my standards for this kind of fare are admittedly higher than most. So my hopes were lofty for Roosters, the fried chicken take away tucked behind Bute Street in Cardiff Bay. It's what you'd expect from a take away, but I found the skin was crispy (which is pretty much half the battle in my book) and the guys behind the counter were chipper and efficient. Overall, it was a bit too greasy for my liking, but it'll definitely hit the spot if it's what you crave after a night out on the sauce. If faced with the option of Roosters or anywhere else for post-night out grub, I'd probably choose a Mc Donald's Quarter Pounder or a Subway sandwich. To its credit, it's open pretty late, which comes in handy when you've ravenous in the Bay and Tesco's et al are all closed.

With Miss Millie's a few steps away it's only a matter of price that tempt's people to go here. Miss Millie's is a tried and tested recipe and as a copycat CFC are cashing in on the same formula. Due to the excessive amounts of salt in the recipe it's difficult to determine which is better between the two shops, but in my experience going along the brand route usually results in a better experience. As I have mentioned in previous fired chicken reviews, it's not a good idea to mix with alcohol after a night out due to the excessive salt, which has a dehydrating effect.

Classic Fried Chicken are not breaking any records with what they do. Sticking to tried and tested…read morefried chicken recipes and assemblages, this fast food outlet is all about giving people what they want, leaving the provision of innovative cuisine and nutritional benefits of food to other providers. That's not to say that there is some nutritional benefit to the fried chicken combo's that they serve... protein is the most essential ingredient in any meal, and is the only thing that the body cannot manufacture itself, even when it is well fed with all of the right things. For this reason we need to eat it every day to remain healthy. We need on average about 40 grams of the stuff daily, and Classic Fried Chicken probably provide that in each of their chicken options... and then some... And this is the downside! It is not advisable to regularly eat excessive amounts of protein, especially from animal sources, as there are diminishing returns on the health front. It's a complex subject, and so I won't go into here. Suffice to say, the occasional chicken meal is probably okay, but as a staple mainstay it's more than likely to be a bad idea. Fried food is really not a great way to obtain nutrition under any circumstances as it creates unwanted side effects that stress the body out. It's pretty toxic, especially if the fast food outlets don't change their oil as often as the could, and with escalating oil costs, I would image that it gets changed less often than it used to at most at the fast food outlets. A lot of the meals come with a smattering of salad, and whilst this is better than nothing, the amounts provided are woefully insufficient to amount to a well balanced meal. Classic Fried Chicken appears to be a well-run establishment that offers eating in as well as takeaways. They always have special offers running on a rotational basis.
