When Uncle Lou’s Fried Chicken opened on April 4, 2001, proprietor Louis Martin never dreamed it would reach national prominence on the Food Network.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic is preventing the network from filming at the restaurant at 3633 Millbranch Rd., Martin is thrilled about the upcoming episode.
Meanwhile in the age of COVID-19, Martin has learned anew never to “count your chickens before they hatch.”
Martin has been asked “about a million times” what the secret is to his chicken.
The “breading” over the chicken holds the secret to its unique flavor, said Martin.
