The fried chicken chain and its French agency Sid Lee got wind of their visit when it was shared on social media, so they decided to memorialize the moment.
The agency tweeted to the couple a customized bucket, which featured a lyric from West’s “Touch the Sky” song: “Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC.” (The tune was also featured in Sid Lee’s earlier KFC campaign, the “Bucket Bangers" Spotify playlist, which compiled popular tunes that gave shout-outs to the fast feeder).
Hey @kanyewest @KimKardashian we created a bucket just for you inspired by our favorite song of yours. For the next time you’ll come split the buffet at KFC Paris… pic.twitter.com/qy9ikhl7Aq

To honor their visit for posterity, Sid Lee then went on to create a commemorative plaque affixed to that Paris kiosk, noting how it was touched by the hands of Kimye.
