I can confirm, Italian, but I grew up in the US. When I was a kid, we roasted a lot of chickens because la rosticceria wasn't a thing in the neighborhood - in South Philadelphia or then out in the NJ suburbs. When Boston Market opened up, we ate a LOT of that.
It was odd to my folks because it's the most basic of prep, and you could pretty much get a roasted chicken (or many other meats prepped the same way) on the go anywhere in Italy. It's fast food that isn't total shit.
- pimlottc 10y agoYep, I remember when Boston Market came along in the 90s, it really spread like wildfire, seemingly overnight. They were quite popular, and no one else was doing rotisserie chicken at a mass scale like that before them.
