KFC's Secret "Sauce" Restaurant & ULTIMATE Wagyu Beef Sandwich in Orlando Florida

Hey guys, it's Mike Chen. In this video, I am in Orlando, Florida, trying out a secret restaurant by KFC that focuses on sauce. And there's a lot of them. Then I'm heading to one of the wildest Wagu restaurants I've ever been to for a mustry ice cream sundae. Finally, dinner. Oh, dinner is going to be humongous. And before getting into all that, a big thank you and shout out to the sponsor of this video, Surf SharkVPN. Of course, I've been talking about and using Surf SharkVPN for many, many years now, and I've said this before, but if you are not currently utilizing a VPN service, I highly recommend that you do. To me, Surf SharkVPN is one of the most essential apps I keep on my phone, my laptop. I run it 24 hours a day, 365. It's so incredibly fast. It just runs in the background. I don't even notice that it's running, but it's giving me peace of mind for less than the price of a cup of coffee a day. And the primary reason I use Surf Shark security, of course, we all have so much personal information floating around online and everybody from data aggregators who's trying to collect your information to sell to marketing companies to people trying to get into your bank accounts, your emails. I have a friend who someone just got into their email and actually stole one of the Christmas goods that they purchased. But what Surf SharkVPN does is that it encrypts and secures your personal information before it goes over the internet. So people who you really don't want having access to your private info, they're not having access to it. Also, Surf Shark has something called Surf Shark alerts. So when someone is trying to gain access to something like the email, you will be notified right away. And Surf Shark is especially useful whenever you're traveling abroad because even though you're traveling abroad physically, I've noticed that it's much more convenient to remain in the US digitally. This way I have full access and use of all the US websites, streaming services, so I don't miss my favorite TV shows or movies. And I mentioned this before, but a lot of websites, a lot of major websites don't even function correctly when you're trying to access it from abroad. So you can actually use Surf SharkVPN to change your digital location to anywhere in the world. So I keep it back in the US. This way, wherever I go in the world, I have full uninterrupted access to all the US streaming services, all the US websites. This way I don't miss out on my favorite TV shows or movies. And I mentioned this before, but a lot of US websites don't even function correctly when you're trying to use it from overseas. So for me, when I'm trying to pay my bills, my mortgage, I use Surf SharkVPN for that. So if you want to give it a try, go to my link down below and use my promo codeychan or just go to surfshark.com/mikeychen for four extra months. Hey guys, this is Mike Chen here in Orlando, Florida. One of my favorite food cities in the country at a place I didn't know existed until probably last week. So, I think by now we all know that McDonald came out with a Cosmix. But did you know KFC has saucy by KFC? Only in Orlando. What? Let's check this place out. Oh. Oh, that is saucy. Look at that. Okay, this place just opened. It is very very purple chicks. So chicken tacos $3.95 each. That's not bad. Okay, so this place I think it's focus is on chicken strips or chicken tenders. There's desserts. There's late night eats. Wo. So there's like a like a chicken tender burrito here. Chicken tender rice bowl salad. Oh, there's actually a lot of stuff. There's a Sammy a kimchi burrito. Loaded mac and cheese. Oh, they got a lot of stuff. Saucy Brussels sprouts. Okay. King's Hawaiian roll. Of all the places to serve Brussels sprouts, I never would have thought it'd be KFC. Oh, all the sauces are 50 cents. Saucy sauce. Smoky bacon ranch, sure. Creole honey mustard sounds good. Tangy saucy barbecue, sure. Let's just try all the sauces. Oh, it would have been cheaper if I just got the four sauce flight. Let's do that. Oh, there's more sauces. Korean sweet heat. Let's do that. Salsa rancherero. Sure. saucies, chim cherry. Yep. Sweet teriyak. And on a early Sunday morning, there is absolutely nobody here. First thing I show up is my mango lemonade. Not bad. I think I should have got this maybe on the lighter side. That was an option. But very tropical. Tastes like Florida. First of all, I just want to say people working here are so incredibly nice. Like so nice. My first meal as saucy. This is all my sauce. I think I got eight. Oh, one egg. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 I got 10 sauces. This is pretty much all their sauces. 10 sauces from Saucy to try. Now I just realized I might not have got enough chicken tenders for all my sauce. This is actually a real concern. I might have to get more chicken tenders. I I did not think this through. I don't think I've ever had a situation where I had way more sauce than chicken tenders. And this is the rice bowl. I just realized I thought on the photos I thought I saw Brussels sprouts in here. There is no Brussels sprouts, just the rice ball. So, fried chicken tenders, some parsley, and I'm guessing this is the saucy sauce on top. That's not bad. All right, so sauce is very, very zesty. Creamy and zesty. Yeah, that goes really well with fried chicken. The chicken tender is nice and crispy. The rice is good. I think this is the saucy wrench sauce because this tastes like a very, very zesty ranch. This actually not bad at all. The rice is good. Nice and fluffy and soft. Chicken tender is good. I like the sauce goes really, really well with the rice. And also, I really like this because when I was young, what I used to do was make a pot of rice, add some protein, and just dump ranch all over it. That's how I used to eat it. Wow. I can very much get on board with this. I think it's delicious. Good chicken tenders. Sauce is good. Rice is good. I like it. Let's try some of the sauce. And we'll start with saucy sauce. This kind of looks like thousand island dressing. And this is their chicken tender. So, it's not heavily breaded. This does feel like it just came out of the fryer, but it's really not that big of a chicken tender for the price you pay. But, let's try it. I feel like today I'm just mainly eating sauce. I think I like the sauce more than I like the chicken tender. The chicken tender, if you can see here, it is definitely a bit dry. It's crunchy on the outside, but it's definitely a bit dry. Sauce is great, though. Very creamy. Tons of zest. Yeah, this will go good with any kind of fried food. Actually, I should have got some fries. You know what? Get some more chicken tenders and fries. Be right back. >> A few moments later. >> All right, it's got another combo. That should take care of all my sauce needs. All right, what's next? Let's try this high sweet and spicy. Smells good. Oh. Oh, that's a really spicy, rich sauce. There's a lot of flavors in this sauce. When I say flavor, this thing tastes like it has a ton of umami. Now, there's horse sauce in this. Like a lot of hoyen sauce is in this for sure. So, this sauce, this is the um saucy sauce. I say a solid eight. This I say a solid nine. Might be because I'm Asian. I love hoyen sauce. But tons of umami, tons of heat. This is the next one. Jalapeno pesto ranch. And that will finish off my first chicken tender. It's good. Not nearly as spicy as the Thai sweet and spicy. By the way, also the Thai sweet and spicy. It's not overly sweet, which I really like. But this one, I think maybe like a seven. I don't really taste much of the jalapeno. Got my combo by the way. This is their King Hawaiian toast. Got some fries and four chicken tender. And try the sauce with the fries after a few bites. Yeah, you do taste a little bit of heat. It's definitely more creamy and herby than anything else. Yeah, like I said, seven. Okay, I'm really excited for this because I love honey mustard when it comes to chicken fingers or chicken tenders. And this is their Creole honey mustard. And this is a new batch of chicken tenders. It looks pretty similar to the last one. Let's see if this is a little bit better because it is a lot hotter. I don't really taste the creole in the creole honey mustard. It just tastes like normal honey mustard. I mean, it's good honey mustard sauce, but I don't really get the creole element to it. I say a seven. About the same as the jalapeno pesto. Okay, I'm excited for this Korean sweet heat just because the Thai sauce tasted really, really good. I feel like this is going to be great. Yeah, you definitely taste the gochi jang in this. Just as much heat as the Thai sauce. A little sweet again. Tons of umami. really good with this chicken chipper. That is so nice. Next up, chimmy cherry ranch. I think this is the worst one. Chimmy chur usually, you know, just bright and vibrant flavors. This is just salty. Can't taste anything else but saltiness. I got five. Yeah, it doesn't even pass. That's not good. All right, three more sauces left. Sweet spicy barbecue. Oh, they didn't put a lot in here. It's a very very small amount of the sweet saucy barbecue. It's enough for like two two or three dunks max. That's really smoky. A lot of zest. Little vinegary. A little tomatoy. Not bad. Barbecue sauce. I say like a seven and a half. Actually three left because the the with the chicken tender combo. I got another sauce. Let's just do this first. This is the Caesar dressing. So it looks like there's tons of black pepper in here. It smells like there's garlic. I'm a big fan of Caesar dressing. This is pretty good Caesar dressing. Very peppery, garlicky. You taste the parmesan cheese in here as well. Not bad. Solid eight. Okay, now we have two more salsa rancherro. By the way, the ring is coming down hard outside. If the scores get better for the sauces from now on, might be a little bit due to that. I like it. This is another, of course, a ranch based sauce. Pretty much just tastes like ranch and salsa. That's good. What's wrong with ranch and salsa? That's a great combo. I give another eight. This is the last savory sauce. This is the smoky bacon ranch. I'm excited for this. Oh, you really taste the smoky bacon. I like them. I mean, one bite of this bacon right away won me over. 8.5 on that. I think they definitely put a lot of thought into all these sauces. The common theme is most of these are very zesty or spicy, which goes really well, of course, with fried chicken or pretty much all sorts of fried foods. They're all really creamy and rich. Again, goes really good with the chicken tenders. And I feel like they definitely put a lot more thought into these sauces than say McDonald's with their citronan sauce. Again, I might be biased, but I really did like the Asian flavors better. The Thai and the Korean sauces are my favorites. I feel like it goes so well with fried chicken. I think my favorite might just be the Korean sauce because the gou jang works so well with fried chicken. Oh my gosh, I totally forgot about the mac and cheese. Let's try the mac and cheese. So, this has been sitting around for like 15 minutes, but it's still nice and hot. It looks like the cheese is still very melty and gooey. I guess this tastes like just any stove top mac and cheese. Nothing really too special about it. I doubt you can add the sauce in here. Or can you? Let's try the Thai sauce. Add a little bit. I'll tell you, not bad. Little bit of a kick. Cuts through the mundane. Typical mac and cheese taste. Lights it up a little bit. Otherwise, yeah, I wouldn't recommend getting mac and cheese. Two more things. Totally forgot about this, too. This is the kimchi taco. Oh, look at this. It's covered in what I'm guessing is the Korean sweet and heat sauce. This is the kimchi they put on the bottom. I really like it. This is a great taco. This is awesome taco. The kimchi is actually really, really good. Nice and crispy. Good fermented flavor. There's tons of heat in here from the Korean sweet heat sauce. This is delicious. It's so crazy because the worst thing at this chicken tender place is the chicken tenders. They're not good. Like, it's dry. It's not juicy at all. The outside is crispy, but definitely a far cry from your Chick-fil-A where you're raising Kings. I mean, they got the name of this place right though. Saucy. You're really here to taste the sauce. The sauces I feel are fantastic. Even the fries, it's not great. So, these are their little puffs that they sell. Kind of looks like a little beignet. And the final sauce is a sweet sauce. So, let's dunk it into their sweet raspberry sauce. Maybe I should have ate this person. This again has been sitting around for about 15 minutes or so. That's so tough. Yeah, they were definitely going for a beignet there. Maybe it was better if I ate it fresh out of the fryer, but if it sits around for 10 minutes, it turns from a beignet to a vignet. King Hawaiian roll toast. It's okay. Best thing here, the sauces. I actually do really like the rice. I feel like the rice saves the chicken tenders a lot because there's so much sauce covering it. So, the sauce is dominating everything and carrying the dish. I also really like the tacos. Again, ironically, only thing I didn't really like is the chicken tenders itself. So, pretty much finished with all the chicken tenders. Going to finish my taco, my rice. I thought it was going to be a lot fuller than this after this meal. So, I think after this, let's head to another place I really, really wanted to try. This is the other place I wanted to go to. Palm Beach Meets Orlando. This place looks awesome. Look at that. Aged Wagyu tallow popcorn. Wagu wanttons. Wagu lubas. Frito pies. What? Okay, that's pretty cool. There's Japanese A5 Wagyu Katu. Oh, $99 for that sandwich. That makes sense though. Wagyu strip katu. Australian Wagu Katu. Oh, there is so much wagu here. This is a nice rain. You don't get this type of rain back in Seattle. This is some solid Florida rain. By the way, this place is amazing. There is so many different Wagyu dishes and I'm trying some stuff today that I never ever thought you could add Wagyu to. The first thing I got Waggy wantons. My first time having Wagi wanttons. So crispy fried wonton. Little scallion on top. Looks like drizzle with a little soy sauce. Oh, that's nice. First of all, I love how much meat they put into these wanttons. Look at that juicy wagu filling. Super crispy on the outside. inside. Just a burst of juice. Now you almost have to slurp. It is so juicy. Richest wantton filling I've ever tasted. Well, that's a juicy wonton. I mean, just look at this thing glisten. I mean, this is really a nononsense Wagyu filling. It's pretty much all meat in here. They told me that this is a mustry item here. This is the Katsu Sando. This is not the A5 Wagu kazu sando because that was 100 bucks. This is the Australian Wagyu katu sando. But look at how beautiful it is. Just squeezing this, I can tell how tender this thing is. Look at that beautiful toast on the outside. Looks like katu sauce. Some scallions inside. See some flaky salt as well. This is a beautiful sandal. This thing tastes like the best day of your life. Cuz when you bite into it, all you taste is pure happiness. So tender. The wagu offers no resistance. Zero resistance. It's that tender. The katu nice and crunchy on the outside. The sauce is beautifully tangy. Oh, that is a heavenly heavenly katu sandwich. Like I said, one bite of that. It just makes you so happy. This is their special item. They only have 10 of these. They have Wagyu brisket sandwich. This is a stunner. Thick cuts of Wagyu brisket. Pickled shallots on top. Such a beautiful color. Really nice thick cuts of brisket. Just beautiful. I bet you this is going to be good. Love it. This is one smoky smoky brisket sandwich. This thing is super rich, too. That's why they got the nice pickle shallots and pickles on the bottom. M. I just bit into the fatty part. It's game over from there. Fatty, melt in your mouth brisket. It's just the greatest thing. That is where all that beautiful rich flavor reside. That's the best part. Also, they put a bunch of the fern edges in here, so you get even more of a smoky flavor. It's wonderful. I wish I could try more of their stuff. I really wanted to try that Wagu burger. Maybe I'll come back tomorrow and get it. The only downside of sitting outside in a Florida rainstorm is there's always mosquitoes. One of the worst parts on the body to be bit by a mosquito, fingers. They're probably chilling on my brisket sandwich. And the finale is this beef Wagyu brownie. So, the Wagyu is incorporated into the whipped cream, the caramel, and the brownie itself. Brownie Sunday, I should say. Oh, that's nice. This is such a delicious brownie sundae. This is so good. If you can imagine like brownie traded in suit and tie for like a leather jacket, that's kind of what it tastes like. There's so much more depth to the brownie. The first thing you taste when you bite into a brownie typically is chocolate. Here, you taste the depth of it. I kid you not, it's not just sweet and chocolatey. This thing has it own umami. I mean, it's a great brownie as well. The edges are nice and crispy. Inside is fudgy. It's velvety. Borderline scandalous with a really unique again umami fil aftertaste. It tastes better than any brownie sundae you'll ever have. I think the storm agrees with me. The beef tallow adds so much complexity to this brownie sundae. This is amazing place. Can't wait to come back and try more of their stuff, especially that burger. I think um with the chicken tenders and this, I'm definitely good till dinner. See you then. Wow, it's almost 10:00 at night now. That last meal absolutely just knocked me out. Luckily, there's a place I always wanted to go to. It's near here and it's still open. Well, at least for another hour. Let's go. It's going to be a interesting couple of travel days. I'm traveling from here to Florence, Italy. But I I don't know if I can actually make it because a lot of disruptions in flights right now. So, uh my flight is scheduled to leave the day after tomorrow, if it ever leaves at all. But first things first, late dinner. And this is a place I've always wanted to come to, the do show. This is like a Egyptian meat pie place. And look how big this place is. And there's a ginormous snow oven. And this place is beautiful. Nice and bright. 10:00 at night, still open, which I do appreciate. And this is the menu here. So, let's get a fatir. They have like seafood ones, sausage one, mixed sharma, a special crown. H. There's sweet ones, savory ones. I'm thinking just getting the do show. That's ground beef, beef sausage, and pastrami. Let's do that. Well, this is going to be a heck of a midnight snack. Look at this. Look at the size of this thing. The fat is classic Egyptian pastry and it's stuffed with a lot of things. And this thing is definitely stuffed with pretty much everything. So, it features beef, beef sausage, pastrami. There's also looks like green peppers, tons of cheese, garlic sauce on top. Oh, this thing smells tremendous. And it looks beautiful, too. Nice and toasty on the outside. So flaky. And inside, oh, this thing's got so much cheese in here. Cheese, peppers. Oh my gosh, look at all that meat. That's good. That's really good. It's like a super super toasty, flaky meat pie. And this thing is absolutely stuffed with meat and cheese. Dunk it into their garlic sauce. M. The corner meat I've been into does not do this meat pie any justice. The center, that's where all the meat and veg and cheese and juice is just mingling. That's where the party's at. This thing is so flaky. It's like the most perfect marriage between crispy, flaky flatbread and pizza. All the meat is tender. The juice has definitely soaked into the middle parts of the flatbread. So once you get through that toasty outer layer, it's just a heavenly mix of meat, juiced, soaked thin slices of dough, crunchy veg, cheese, and meat. I've been admiring this place for actually a while now, but it's kind of like in the outskirts of Orlando. I never really traveled to this part, but tonight my hotel's here, and this place was like less than half mile away. Pure food serendipity. And even though this is going to be really heavy, but I feel like this is just the most perfect late night meal. Garlic dipping sauce is awesome, too. And they got so many different flavors of this thing. Highly recommend.
