Is C&C better? Maybe. Is it 80% better? Hell no.
Dollar for dollar, it's still the best fried chicken in town. (IMHO) Still locally owned to boot.

I am not sure the last time you were at Chicken on the Way, but I would argue that the chicken is awful there and I'd rather pay an extra 80% for any of the other non-KFC options.
I am not sure what the problem is with them (original location specifically), though I am sure it's a result of the basement shenanigans. It seems like either they're not changing out their cooking oil, ever; it's being cooked way too long; or the pieces are too large to deep fry properly. I mean, it's great that the pieces are so big, but it's not great that it's like eating what could be generously described as chicken jerky.
I still like the fritters, but I have actually picked up fried chicken from one restaurant, and just gotten fritters from COTW.
