- The Mogilles family, the family behind McHardy’s Chicken and Fixin’, has been frying chicken in New Orleans’ Seventh Ward since 2000 ( • Fried Chicken At A Dis... ). What started from Grandma’s secret fried chicken recipe has evolved into three generations working together under one roof, day in and day out. At the center of it all is Rahman, who single-handedly fries every piece of chicken, along with his two daughters, his mother, and his father. It’s not always easy running a business with family, but the rewards far outweigh the challenges.

Amazing that his daughter is 13 but already has a business mindset. Way to teach your children through your actions. And that chicken looks good af.
meanwhile the rest of the kids in US are consuming kardashian style of garbage then grow up braindead and blame everyone, but themselves, then go march in the streets that government should take care of them. recipe for poverty.

I’m really feeling the grandfather and grandmother’s vibe. They’re clearly educated, had decent white collar jobs, but decided to come back to do something closer to their souls.

This is literally right down the street from my apartment but hadn’t heard of it as I’m new in Nola. Went to try it today based on this video and it’s genuinely some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. Fully recommend.
I had this chicken abt 20 yrs ago.....& still talk abt that place to this day
This is torture.
The banter between the father and daughter… it’s so clear they both cherish each other 🥺
Damn, Pops is chill as hell. He's a role model for fathers out there

he’s very well spoken forsure

Yo i’m high af right now, but I swear on everything that I will taste this chicken. This has now become my life’s mission
😂😂😂
😂I'm looking at flights from Ireland, see you there
I’m smoking. Watching this why hahahah
Im also adding this to my list of things to do
Harold & Kumar never gave up, we shouldn't either
I love his attitude. When he said, "can't nobody fry chicken better than me." That reminds me of my mother. Job well done.
I AM LITERALLY AN EMPLOYEE HERE NOW....THIS FAMILY IS SOOOO AWESOME TO WORK FOR.THEY HAVE A HOMEMADE FLAVOR TO THERE CHICKEN, TENDERS, WINGS, FISH...& OMG THE HAMBURGERS ARE 🍔 THE BEST OF THE BEST.. I ENJOY THE FAMILY AS MUCH THE FOOD DEFINITELY IF U HAVE A CHANCE COME & TRY US OUT!.I LOVE YALL MCHARDY'S FAMILY
That young lady has the maturity of someone much older. She will go far in life with that kind of mindset.
This whole family is just wholesome af.
Love to see it.
Yup. Looks like a business owner in the making.
Ikr?
I thought the girl was his girlfriend
Lol....well she did right then...but trust me Alyna IS VERY CHILDISH LMAO..I LOVE HER
I like the son the most. He's so happy with his life and so dedicated to his craft idk I just like to see it.
I live about 6 mins away from this joint and it’s the best chicken I’ve ever had in my life.
Somebody to vouch for them. Good.
I live 2 mins from In And Out. I'll trade with you.
@@AllenHanPR let’s do it! best fried okra over here too!
I’m glad to hear they are still open. Next time I’m back in NO, I have to visit this place!
Damn i wish i was living 6 mins from this joint too😢
Man, that moment at 9:56-9:57! That is a moment that everyone parent wants, when you know that you raised your children well and they are going to be okay. Who wouldn't be proud of that wonderful 13-year old girl whose maturity, intelligence, and optimistic vision could rival any adult? I came for the chicken, but left with a joy of seeing this great family. God bless them!
The daughter is incredibly mature. She's gonna do so much for the family business.
His daughter seems incredibly mature and thoughtful for being 13. I was shocked when she said that. Go get that dream, young lady!
The grandparents are both educated. The son might be smart, but doesn’t come off too intelligent. Probably skipped a generation.
@@benbenassi2348 the man welded metal together and made a deep frying pan to cook burgers. I think you're wrong
@benbenassi2348 let's see you weld champ.....
This guy is passionate about his job and his family. The business is gonna be more successful in the future for sure. And damn the chicken looks succulent and delicious~
Raised an incredible young lady. She is going to expand this business to the masses. McHardys will be a franchise within 10 years
this whole family needs a tv/cooking show. The way they talk and their voice are just so comforting and charming
That’s what an educated family from the grandmother to the kids sound like
Sounds like 2Chains when he's high with joint
@@cutetanjiro666 lolol
A reality tv show is the last thing they need, they're doing great without that stupidity.
Beautiful family and story
rahmans vibe is just different. he seems so content
I love how honest they are especially the mother. I love how she just tell it like it is instead of making it look and sounds like peaches and cream when running a family business. love of family
watching the father's face fill with pride as his daughter talked about her future made me cry
the most pure look of love
The sister you mean?
@@WillyToulouse It's his daughter.
@@frozt got it, 3rd gen.
We need more family run businesses like this in the world.
Unlikely to happen.
@@BeardedDanishViking Considering the Coof and Gov. policies closed down on a lot of Mom & Pop shops. Yes I do agree.
McDonalds used to be family run business, before Ray Kroc stole it. Same goes with Starbucks
I wish that was possible but unfortunately it wont happen because of the governments
Joe Biden won't allow Big Corporations only
What a smart, well spoken, wholesome, hard working family. Much respect
The way Rahman talked about the chicken in the beginning was so full of passion. I believe every word that he says and wish I lived near enough so I could have their chicken.
It is so amazing when people value and preserve the family legacy. That fried chicken really looks so delicious. You can tell it is so tasteful just by looking how it is loaded with spices.
Murica!
Im glad people like them exist, food service is hard
I wonder if you'd be as enthusiastic if they were all white :-)

Love how she said she never taught him the 6 Ps but she raised an individual creative enough to think of it. Impressive family
@@crystalstarburst ‘proper preparation prevents pisspoor performance’ isn’t a unique addage; it’s very common in chef’s circles… Anthony Bourdain used it a lot #RIP
@@hellfish2309 good to know. Thanks
That daughter is going to take this business FAR. She'll make the empire as big as KFC! It's amazing to have such big goals and dreams at only 13
I know, I love it!!
Sure , but the biggest problem is maintaining the original recipe .....KFC may be big, but the authentic recipe has been watered down a lot since its conception....think about it , its the reason why people prefer authenticity of family recipes than big brands now .
Ain't no way she only 13
@@pratikchaudri6404 if you look at models similar as In n Out, you can maintain consistency if you keep it local to an extent and be very selective when picking areas in the outer reach.
Three generations working together at a restaurant just brings joy to my life
The granddaughter's maturity at 13 rivals a 16-18 year olds. Easy.
Or 30 year olds even.
@@Woozlewuzzleable exactly! I would even go further then that even lol
100%. So articulate.
Genetics past down from generations
@@rasheeda1303 It's not the genetics but rather the values being passed down. She wouldnt be the same person had she grown up in a different family
the way he talks about his daughter 🥺you can tell he truly truly believes in her and thinks the world of her
I love dude passion about fried chicken! To me this is metaphorical. He’s not just frying chicken.. he’s putting that extra magic on every step of the process.. if you do that with anything in life you’ll create something special! Shouts out to that man and his family!
Crazy thing for me is they started their family business in 2000, and 21 years on their still going strong! In the uk unfortunately you dont get a lot of black family businesses that last that long . Truely inspiring!! 👏🏽👊🏽👌🏽
Wow that’s sad
This dude just has THAT Energy... love seein people like this
I feel like he used to be a rascal, but has a heart of gold!
The chemistry is so funny between these guys, real natural and genuine
Maybe because their family.... LoL
Such a down-home laid back family with a great business and the young granddaughter mindset maturity and admiration. And she started in the business at 6 years old is outstanding.My best wishes to the family and I can't wait to come to New Orleans to come to your restaurant. Me coming from California.Best wishes I will see you in 2023.True Story.
Cooking is a combination of chemistry, love and art. Love is the most important seasoning and he obviously LOVES what he does!
"Love" is simply a heightened attention to detail and preparation.
This was one of the best videos I’ve ever watched. I am not just talking about a food specific thing, the passion, the humour, the inspirational messages. I never wanted a random video about fried chicken in N.O. to keep going. These people need a show tbh. All of them, this felt like a “new age family sitcom”.
AMEN!
The young lady is so beautiful and confident! I love how expressive she is and how she has a positive family support system to fall back on 🧡
U r incredibly beautiful too u know..❤️
This brings tears to my eyes that a black family working together i love them
I’m so happy to have found this story. So uplifting & positive. Wishing this family continued success!
I live a few blocks from McHardy’s. That chicken is freaking amazing! And we have a lot of killer fried chicken here.
Do you think they are better than Gus’ Fried Chicken?
McHardy's is a staple down here. Y'all know we love y'all but it's good to see y'all getting some extra recognition
Y’all
@@PrimeRickSanchez y'all
Y'all
I used to live right around the corner from this place. I loved it so much and it was so hard to leave.
Classy family, wish my own was as close as these people are. They more than deserve everything good coming their way.
THANKYOU Munchies for telling this family’s story. They are amazing. They need to get a regular TH-cam channel going. It would attract millions🙏🏽❤️👍🏾
McHardys is the absolute truth! Up on Broad st. People visit New Orleans and ask where to eat, this is in my top three places I tell um. Get the chicken strips and dip them in a side of mashed potatoes and gravy. Thank me later.
Chicken stripes and mash? Nigga thays basic af 🤡
The best places I’ve been to are the ones the locals go to.
F! That the best way to eat it.
@@ayotee1181 are you slow? Because you totally are off topic. You want a cookie.
Mashed potatoes are a condiment.
Their personalities are the real star in this, I was laughing and smiling all through the vid. If the owners/chefs have such great personality, you bet the food is awesome!
When I hear how the father compliments his son on how he handles the business, my hat is off to him, because that is what you raised, take charge no nonsense, tight ship running young man, and I KNOW the chicken is good by looking at it!
This family is absolutely lovely, theyre chicken must be so good from all the love they radiate!
What a family wow! The 13 year old is incredibly articulate a sign of brilliant parenting and grand parenting. Wishing you Mogilles every success, the passion and humor you display is the winning recipe.
man i already know their fried chicken is the bomb, when someone says "i love what i do". best cooked food is always cooked with heart and soul. I'll definitely pop by when in NOLA. more power to the owners! may yall be blessed in your business.
"I have two masters and I have to clean the toilet?" Felt that in my soul
I happen to rewatch this again. It gets better every single time.
Great to see a family business prospering. Far better than chain restaurants.
This family looks so cute together, definitely gonna visit there when I have the chance
I appreciate each and every piece of content you guys make. Watching the Mogilles family this morning was a good way to start the day.
This family members got beautiful comforting voices. I could listen them talking all day long.
This family - oh my goodness, the parents, son, grand daughter coming together to do something so fulfilling ❤ strong ties and look at this food!
I love how they're all healthy, even though they in a fried food business. Very beautiful.
Fried food is healthy, if you don't eat it every day.
@@einundsiebenziger5488 bruh fried food is never healthy. There is a lot of fat and sodium.
@@guy393 no it’s not if you eat it in moderation, you should only eat fried foods two days out the week
This dude cool as hell good family good business very intelligent parents keep doing your thang 💯
Bet we can exchange info
I am really happy to see a family business growing. I pray for your success. Great job!
That skillet's genius.
It really not his using up a whole fryer for two or three burgers at the most
@@informedtraveler6057 the food being fried would be in the oil, the skillet would be on top of the oil so, both the burger and whatever is in the oil is cooking at the same time.
Facts
Probably one of the standout videos I’ve watched this year! I can feel their vibe and love for their business.
Pick one thing and do it better than anyone else… great words and great ethics…
Something about the way people in this family talk, even the young girl, makes me feel like they're all geniuses.
"Proper planning prevents piss poor performance" I am stealing that.
"I always thought the American dream was to own something and not to work for someone else". Yes sir!!!
*I really enjoyed this video. This is a beautiful loving supportive family and i wish there were more family businesses like this that put their all in it and have the best quality food. I pray this family business gets bigger and better. God bless them* 🙏
OH MAN!!! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!! Family making it HAPPEN!!! GENERATIONS of Making it happen! BLESS AND RESPECT, MOGILLES FAMILY!
This family needs a whole show because I was getting relaxed listening to them and felt part of the family and who doesn’t love fired chicken
This is the cutest and healthiest family I have ever seen.
Healthiest ?🤣
@@michaelsliders3421 as in non-toxic. Good with dealing with each others energy.

She’s so articulate and well spoken for her age. Beautiful family working together.
You know the bond of these family are just amazing and they are so calm. The mindset of that little girl are really for business. Keep it up folks.😊🙏🙏🙏❤😇
stories like this make me emotional. I can't relate, but the fact that family is so important to them is inspiring. Please nothing but the best for this family. I wish well for the daughter as well she seems incredibly bright.
This is the type of content I love to see! If I'm ever in New Orleans I'm definitely gonna try the chicken.
I pray that you all and your business is safe after the Hurricane in New Orleans. America needs more McHardy's and a family like yours. God Bless.
Love to see My People doing Great.
Media need to cover more stories like This.
I'm a young Asian father but damn, the grandma is one smart, beautiful, and loving women. Bless the handsome man who she calls her husband. I wish them all the best to have a happy family, healthy life, and good fortunes for their business.

Love how the mums so honest bout family business & sacrifice straight up OG. The passion of the son to keep continuing it is amazing. Most 2nd or 3rd gens wana do there own thing bt if u got a jewel that will last for gens why not continue it. Hats off to this family they r so authentic serving authentic food. ✊ hope this biz will last for decades to come👏🏽
loving the family energy …bless you guys🙏🏻
Bruh, i haven't watched munchies in years, let me tell you something. Watching this truly made me happy to see such a well rounded family, and a well made video.
I live far away in another country..I haven't the means to hope to visit this family business...but this video was a vacation I can afford and thoroughly enjoyed.
Man this family is going places. The way the daughter is ready to tak3 over and build. Let her get her degree its over. So happy for this family
I love the entire family!!!!!! All of them are so adorable...So much passion and love
What an incredible family. Everyone is so focused on the business and so intelligent. I wish them continued success and can't wait to get me some of that chicken!!
Beautiful family they got
Genuine and down to earth family. What a great story.
The chicken is fantastic and all but wow what a sweet family dynamic. It's crazy to hear the two grandparents come from esteemed backgrounds then choose to work what would usually be perceived as "below their stations". Raising a dutiful son and blessed with a conscientious granddaughter, hope to see them continue to flourish.
Dude loves what he's doing. Mad respect for that hustle
What a beautiful family!! I love how supportive they all are of one another, it really warms my heart. The food looks incredible, you can see it's filled with so much love & intention. I wish them all the success 🙌🍽💓
They all are beautifully eloquent and have amazing energy.
I love these people! They look happy, show full respect for what they do and they do it right.
"Pick one thing and do it better than anybody else". Surely this man has a vision, and this explains why he has been successful.
This made me emotional. How beautiful to have a family bond work together and nurture each other. Feeding people good food they care about and generations willing to grow the business for the next ones to take over and be even better. Keep it up.
Such a lovely wholesome family, I love them.
God bless their restaurant to keep being successful.
I grew up in my parents restaurant. I hated it as a kid. But I always look back on how much time we spent together and a family. I love their family dynamic
i feel like this is a great example of a family business. you can feel the love between everyone and every generation pour their heart into the business and give what they can into it
This whole family is LITTTTTT and understands hard work
Love the vibe of this family.. well articulated too
Family over Everything.... Love your vibe my man✊🏾
