The new ownership at Eli's Shell in Nicholasville is hoping a new partnership with a nationwide cajun-chicken brand will spice up its food business. The restaurant inside the food mart has served home cooking for years but recently revamped its menu with offerings from Krispy Krunchy Chicken. “It's been tested and proven in markets from Louisiana all the way up to the northern states,” said Mark Peck, a KKC concept developer. “We try not to introduce our competitors, but what we try to do is enhance what they've done and make the market better.” The chicken brand boasts more than 1,000 locations nationwide, many in convenience stores but some standing alone, Peck said.

Clint Followell has a day job working in maintenance for the Danville school system but his passion is what he does in his off time. "I spend all my spare time out in the woods or on a pond bank," says the blond-haired 23-year-old. Followell grew up in Danville but learned his way around the woods from his father, the late James Followell, a Perryville native. The first turkey Followell killed was the last time they hunted together in spring 1997. "We both harvested some nice birds," says Followell, who still hunts a lot with his uncle, Gary Followell.

People tried to convince the Rev. Johnny Joseph to live in Kentucky. They offered him a worry-free life full of all the fried chicken he could eat and permanent respite from the turmoil of his homeland, Haiti. Joseph always refused.
