Kenny Rodgers at SM Bacolod City - A Taste of American Rotisserie Chicken

Kenny Rodgers was opened in 2015 at SM Bacolod City, much to my happiness. I have been to Kenny Rodgers while in Manila and Cebu and was happy when I first had learned about the opening of the restaurant here in Bacolod.

I'll first start by saying that when comparing Cebu, Manila, and Bacolod, restaurants are always going to be a little different and, most likely, have fewer choices in Bacolod. This is a much smaller city with a much smaller middle and upper class with the ability to eat at this style of restaurant on a day-in and day-out manner.


With that being said, Kenny Rodgers still has its great classic American taste and just enough selections to make me coming back for more. It is, after all, the only American roast chicken in Bacolod.

Food: The menu includes roast chicken, grilled chicken, salad, soups, sandwiches, and a variety of side dishes like fruit salad, vegetable salad, corn on the cob, corn and carrots, mashed potatoes, roast potatoes, double corn muffin, Mexican macaroni, and more.

Drinks: Iced tea, blue lemonade, soda

Desserts: Brownies, sundaes, other ice creams

My recommendations: I highly suggest getting the roasted chicken, even though the grilled chicken is still quite delicious. As for the side dishes, I love to choose the mashed potatoes, simply because they give a healthy portion unlike other restaurants in the Philippines.

Ratings:
Food: 5 out of 5 (I couldn't ask for more)
Selection: 4 out of 5 (only because the ones in Manila and Cebu offer many more side dishes and different sauces. The one here only offers gravy.)
Environment: 2 out of 5 (small space, noisy, and crowded. DON'T SIT NEAR THE COUNTER)
Price: 3 out of 5 (Pricey for Bacolod - 200-265 is normal price, depending on how many sides and the menu item you choose)
Portion size: 5 out of 5 (BIG portions. American sized.)
