One of my favorite movies of all time is "The Blues Brothers". In that movie, the part when the brothers go to recruit Matt Guitar Murphy from his verbally abusive wife, played by Aretha Franklin, they go to a really run-down restaurant, resembling a hole in the wall. What I like about that scene, is that Aretha's character refers to their fried chicken as the "best fried chicken in the whole state." So, very similar, there is this awesome place in Bloomington called Super JJ's.
The place is small, has old ceiling tiles, has some old carpet and floor tiles, looks like this:
But there is the kicker: the food is freakin' amazing. The fried fish is so fresh and clean. The fries are delicious. I have ordered their wings before and they are so good they make me and anyone else want to take some "to go" and make the 2 hour drive back home with it. I ordered something new, which is on that sign in the middle of the counter, near the hot sauce squeeze bottle. I ordered a chicken sandwich.
It may not look like much, but that fried chicken sandwich was the best chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. This is a big deal considering that during my teenage years I had lived on a mix of the chicken sandwich from Burger King and Mcnuggets from McDonalds. It is amazing and perfectly cooked. An easy 3 out of 5 stars. Please look them up and go there.
