Last October we had a family vacation in California, and I pretty much forced my family to visit the Knott’s chicken dinner restaurant, mainly because of videos like yours making me want to experience the place. Like, I almost had to drag them there. We got there late so we were pretty much the last people in the restaurant and we couldn’t really do much in terms of buying souvenirs or viewing much. My family absolutely fell in love with the place in that short time though. Now they want a full day in the park next time we visit.
