#FoodieFriday: Everything's better fried

Welcome to the first installment of #FoodieFriday at Chasing News! We decided to buck the healthy trend and go for fried chicken. And donuts. Together. In one place: Federal Donuts of Philadelphia.

It seems one owner wanted a donut shop, the other, a chicken joint. The result? Five stores in the City of Brotherly Love.

Chaser Ashley Hall headed to the West Philly location to watch Chef Matt Fein make the magic happen.

Strawberry lavender is the top-selling donut. As for the chicken, the buttermilk ranch is the winner -- and every chicken basket comes with a honey donut.

Sounds like a match made in heaven and a great way to kick off #FoodieFriday.
