Best Fried Chicken
Gold: Jane’s Black Swan Cafe
209 W. Seventh St., (719) 542-0858
Fried chicken needs to be crispy but not greasy, spicy but not too much breading, and it needs to be hot. Given the stiff competition in this town, this is a big win for Jane’s Black Swan Cafe. Their cozy restaurant has been serving Chinese food and their winning fried chicken for more than half a century. With fried chicken this good, expect another fifty years from this little downtown cafe.
