With a population of fewer than 18,000 residents, you may have never heard of Belle Glade, to begin with. However, anyone who knows a thing or two about mind-blowing chicken knows exactly where this is. Ready for some of the best fried chicken in Florida?

Part of the charm of DFC is the fact that things have stayed the same over the years. They use the same white serving boxes, the same drinks, and the same fried chicken recipe.

It’s not just fried chicken here that locals love. The fried catfish is also a staple, served up the same way as the chicken - smothered in French fries.
