This is not fried chicken.

It just looks like it.

Crispy outside.

Ice cream inside.

And yeah, the first reaction is always confusion.

Not Fried Chicken just dropped at Choco n Dip.

Looks Like Chicken. Hits Like Dessert.

... Read moreIf you’re anything like me, you know how thrilling it is to stumble upon a dessert that completely defies expectations. The Not Fried Chicken at Choco n Dip is exactly that kind of treat—at first glance, you might do a double take because it perfectly mimics the look of crispy fried chicken. But the surprise hits when you take a bite and discover rich, creamy ice cream inside. This playful dessert is a fantastic example of how culinary creativity can blend visual appeal with texture and flavor to create excitement around eating. The crisp outer shell gives you the satisfying crunch everyone loves in fried chicken, while the interior coolness contrasts beautifully, creating a delightful textural and temperature experience. I visited Choco n Dip at West Edmonton Mall, and the ambiance there adds to the fun. The staff was friendly and happy to explain the concept behind Not Fried Chicken, making it clear that this dessert is about enjoying a pranking moment with your taste buds—as the signage cleverly says, "You got pranked!" If you’re someone who loves sharing quirky food finds on social media, this is definitely an eye-catcher perfect for #foodtiktok or local foodies hashtags like #yyceats and #yegfoodie. It’s also great for a casual outing with friends who appreciate innovative desserts. Since it’s a rich and sweet item, I’d recommend sharing it or enjoying it after a savory meal. Also, consider exploring other offerings at Choco n Dip; their chocolate dippings and desserts promise similarly creative takes that will satisfy any sweet tooth. Overall, Not Fried Chicken is a must-try for anyone visiting Edmonton or residents searching for creative dessert options that break away from the ordinary. It’s a fun, tasty way to experience food that plays with expectations and delights all the senses.

FRIED RICE AT HOME… BUT BETTER 🔥
Sometimes we order out… but we really need to be cooking at home. I kept this one simple and let the flavors do the work. Smoked turkey, carrot ribbons, green onions, sesame, and that sauce bringing everything together. It’s not complicated… just intentional. Less guessing. More cooking.
