I passed along Ilustre Street earlier today. Out of curiousity, I decided to check out Amgar Plaza (the small nook in front of Peter Pan) since I haven’t been there for ages. Once there I was very surprised to find out that Goldie Chicken House is still operational.
As you can see, Goldie was my family’s favorite snack house long ago before fastfood giants such as like Jollibee and McDonald’s came over to Davao City. I still vividly remember the old days when my mama would tag me and my siblings along so we could enjoy our favorite fried chicken meal at Goldie’s. Unfortunately, we never heard of the place again since it was temporarily closed down in the early 90’s. It gave me the impression that Goldie closed shop for good.
Anyway, Goldie is quite similar to Chickies & Patties (especially the logo, the prices, the gelatin juice, etc), but I must say that the fried chicken there (Goldie) is so much better. A regular family feast box contains around 7+ pieces of chicken, 2 cups of rice, a small cop of salad and some fries. It is worth only 215 pesos. A larger version of the family feast (probably with more chicken) is worth almost 250 pesos.
Over-all, Goldie offers some great tasting and affordable food. The only thing i don’t like about Goldie is the setting. The inner portion of the place is so hot because it lacks windows and proper ventilation. So if you want to dine there, better do so near the exit/ entrance area.
Goldie Chicken House is located at Amgar Plaza, Illustre Street, just in front of Peter Pan bake shoppe.
masarap talaga ng chicken tikman niyo pati the best pa!
Goldie is almost the same as Chikies & Patties because they have the same owner. ^^
