Message: | I brought home a rotisserie chicken on each of my last two shopping trips at the Torrance Costco. I was pleasantly surprised how delicious both of them were. They were big birds, succulently moist and nicely seasoned. Most supermarket rotisserie chickens are overcooked. As much as I love Zankou, you run the risk of getting an overcooked chicken there from time to time. (I've learned to ask specifically for a chicken that is "moist" when ordering at Zankou.) So I was extremely impressed at the quality control of the Costco chickens. Because the Torrance Costco isn't that far off course for me on my commute home, my wife and I decided that a Costco chicken would make a dandy take out on those evenings when we want to be at home and I don't feel like cooking, even though it seems sort of wierd to go to Costco just for one solitary chicken. I've also found some of the meat at Costco (particularly beef, lamb, and pork) to be of very high quality. On my last visit, I picked up some beautifully marbled ribeye steaks that were decadently good. |
