Time Out says

Housed in the space of a former Harold’s Chicken, this Chatham joint does Nashville hot chicken a bit differently by infusing garlic, onions, sumac, paprika and other Middle Eastern flavors into the batter.

The vibe: Vibrant neon yellow and red branding offers a preview of the equally zesty fare. 

The food: Each order comes with two jumbo tenders, which are more than enough for most appetites. If you’re a purist who prefers bone-in chicken, the wings dipped in hot honey butter sauce and topped with Alabama white sauce, cotija cheese and pickles won’t disappoint either. 

The drinks: Sweet sips like Watermelon Sugar (fresh-squeezed watermelon and lemonade) and Peachy Sweet Tea (homemade ginger peach black tea topped with mint and a peach slice) are refreshing complements to the chicken.

Time Out tip: Afterward, cool off with an indulgent strawberry shortcake shake.
