Crispy, Juicy, and Local: How We Perfected Fried Chicken for Indian Taste Buds

There’s something magical about that first crunch — when you bite into golden, crispy fried chicken and it melts into juicy perfection. At Shakes N Tender, we’ve spent countless hours in the kitchen chasing that perfect bite — one that feels global in craft yet local in soul.

Our story began with a simple question: “How can we make fried chicken that feels Indian at heart?”
We didn’t want to copy the usual American recipe. Instead, our chefs experimented with spice blends that speak our language — a hint of cumin, a touch of pepper heat, and just enough masala to make your taste buds dance.

Every tender is marinated for hours in our signature blend of buttermilk and secret spices. This slow marination ensures every bite stays tender, flavorful, and perfectly juicy inside. Then comes the batter — light, airy, and crisp — fried at just the right temperature to lock in that crunch we’re famous for.

But what truly makes our fried chicken special?
It’s freshness. No shortcuts. Perfect cold chain meats. Every piece is prepared in small batches, ensuring you get that “just-cooked” goodness every time you order.

At Shakes N Tender, it’s not just food — it’s our way of celebrating how comfort food can evolve. A classic made for the world, reinvented for India.

So next time you dig into our fried chicken, know this — it’s not just crispy and juicy; it’s crafted, tested, and perfected… for you
