When it comes to food here at DFB, we’re not ones to discriminate.
So, when we hear about a new restaurant concept opening from a familiar favorite, well, we get pretty darn excited. Last year, we checked out the new CosMc’s concept from McDonald’s, and now, it looks like another fast food giant is introducing a new spin on their iconic items.
Dipping sauces are having their moment in the food world right now — especially with the rise in popularity of chicken tenders these days. And, things are about to get a whole lot saucier because KFC is introducing a new fast food concept: Saucy.
Saucy is opening on Monday, December 23rd, in Orlando — just minutes away from Disney World and is a “flavor-forward dining destination offering chicken tender lovers the chance to dip, dunk and customize their meal with 11 irresistible sauces.”
KFC Chief New Concept Officer, Christophe Poirier, said, “Everyone is obsessed with sauce – more is more. With Saucy, we’ve taken KFC’s famous Original Recipe® and amplified it with a brand-new concept that lets consumers play with flavor. You can pick a combo, choose a flight of sauces or, my personal favorite, mix sauces and sides to create your perfect meal. We’re sauce people, not math people, but we tried to calculate it and there seems to be over 4,000 different ways you could order at Saucy and have a different flavor experience every time.”
Sauces and tenders can be paired with toasted Hawaiian rolls, crinkle cut fries and coleslaw, and there will also be a selection of sandwiches and various drink combinations.
In Orlando, Saucy debuts with 11 signature sauces – the number being a playful nod to the 11 herbs & spices in KFC’s Original Recipe:
- Chimichurri Ranch
- Peri Peri Ranch
- Jalapeno Pesto Ranch
- Smokey Bacon Ranch
- Thai Sweet ‘N Spicy
- Sweet ‘N Saucy BBQ
- Saucy’s Sauce
- Spicy Mango Chutney
- Saucy Ranch
- Creole Honey Mustard
- Sweet Teriyaki
You can find Saucy at 502 South Alafaya Trail, Orlando, FL 32828. Current hours are listed below. It sounds like there’s a new late-night spot to get some grub after a day in the parks!
- Sunday – Wednesday: 10AM to 2AM
- Thursday – Saturday: 10AM to 3AM
