Travellers often seek authentic local food when jetting off to exotic locations, but for one Aussie, a visit to KFC in Bali became a surprising highlight.
'Honestly, I could have my wedding here,' he quipped after venturing into what he dubbed the 'bougiest' KFC he'd ever encountered.
Jack Cooper, renowned for his travel content, took his taste buds on a whirlwind tour of KFC's Balinese offerings—all for just 98,184 Indonesian Rupiah or about $10 AUD.
'All right, I am starving guys, let’s get straight into it,' he said.
'Oh, that’s good. The chicken itself tastes exactly how it does in Australia. I don’t know if that’s common sense or not?'
But amidst the familiar golden fried chicken, one dish stood out as an unexpected twist: Spaghetti Deluxe.
'It’s very interesting to me because I wouldn't eat spaghetti with chicken, or would I?'
'Yeah, I would. Would I? Is that a thing?' Cooper asked his viewers.
'I’m sorry…what? Spaghetti? At KFC?' one viewer replied.
One woman pointed out that in her culture 'spaghetti and chicken is a thing'.
Another item that caught Cooper’s fancy was the chicken pops—a bite-sized twist to the classic nuggets.
But it was the KFC cream soup that took him down memory lane.
'I don't know what it is, but this soup kinda tastes like a core memory—like my mum definitely made me something like this when I was young,' he shared.
The fish burger, however, was his crowning joy.
'I don't know what sauce they’ve put on this but whatever it is, we don’t have in Australia, and it’s so good,' he said.
'This is really good.'
And Cooper wasn’t the only one praising the Balinese chicken; one user asserted that the KFC chicken in Bali is better than its Australian counterpart.
'The chicken pieces are much bigger than Australia,' another commented.
And a third said: 'KFC is so fancy in Bali.'

Another important aspect was the affordability of this delectable spread.
'Did you say all that was basically [$10] in AUD?' one wrote.
The story comes after KFC's 'Kentucky Fly Chicken' campaign winner, Lisa Wenban from Sydney, revealed the international KFC burger she wished to see Down Under.
Wenban, a pronounced chicken connoisseur, visited Tokyo and stumbled upon the Wafu Cutlet Burger, a mouthwatering fusion of Japanese flavors with crisp chicken cutlets, sumptuous teriyaki, and mayo cradled in a tender bun.
'I, 10 out of 10, wish we had it here,' Wenban said.
