In late 2015, they opened a franchise in Chicago, but it pales in comparison to the original Memphis location. It has an unbelievable spice to it and is plump and moist and delicious in the way really great fried chicken can be.

The chicken has “crispy skin and has a cayenne kick, which is noticeable but not overwhelming.” Regardless of whether or not you enjoy a bit of spice in your chicken, Faye says “there’s no denying it’s good.”
