S&J Hot Chick: Hot Chicken That Delivers Pure Pleasure

S&J Hot Chick is where the food wins you over before the first bite. The chicken arrives bronzed and beautifully rugged, its crust crinkled and crackly, still whispering heat from the fryer. The aroma is irresistible—fried flour, warm chili, and a touch of smokiness that signals comfort with attitude.

Bite in and the contrast is immediate. The crust shatters cleanly, giving way to juicy, tender meat that’s seasoned all the way through, not just on the surface. The fry is crisp and controlled, never greasy, letting the flavor and texture stay front and center.

Dugg Burger Featuring Even More Options

dugg2by Constance Hernandez

“Have It Your Way.” That slogan grills up memories of low-def TV commercials and soft cardboard crowns I used to fight over with my little sister. But in the foodie era of 2017, that tactic is obligatory on a menu. Holding down a smidgen of un-decidedly un-prime real estate in a small shopping center at the corner of West Park and Ohio Drive is Dugg Burger. I know; West Plano needed another burger joint. But hold the groans and unroll those eyes, because what West Plano didn’t have was a charming little spot that is just as enticing to the foodie set as it is to families. And that, burger buffs, is where Dugg Burger lets you ‘have it your way.’

I don’t know if it was because I was snapping pics in the parking lot like a crime scene technician, or maybe he just always greets his customers with a hearty “Hello, welcome to Dugg Burger!” but Head of Operations guru Greg Watson immediately put a smile on my face and a twinge in my appetite. His sincere, concentrated southern demeanor almost clashed against the industrial-chic, alt-rock vibe that Dugg Burger emits. Once I got over the predictable let down that he was A Greg, and not The Doug, it wasn’t ‘charred’ to love this place.  Continue reading →

Get Your Squad to PDQ… PDQ!

pdqby Rhonda Dutton

I’m sure you saw that title coming. The term “PDQ” has been around since 1875 and is much cooler than saying “forthwith.” What hasn’t been around since 1875 is a good variety of chicken sammie options. Most places offer a grilled chicken sandwich. Or a grilled and a fried chicken sandwich, almost as if they were a menu afterthought or an appeasement for diners who may not be in the mood for beef (this I can’t fathom but I’ve heard it exists). However, there has been tremendous growth in fowl-eating this year: 3 of the 5 fastest-growing restaurant chains in America are cluck-cluck joints.   Continue reading →

Super Chix To Directly Compete With Chick Fil A, Opens In Arlington Weds

super chix3by Steven Doyle

We received word about Super Chix this week, and as excited as we were to learn about a new, hot super hero group that would be roaming the skies, alas, it was a new fast food chicken restaurant. And to top it all off, it is from Yum! Brands, the owner of KFC. This didn’t exactly excite us as we had hoped. However, there is a golden lining in the new restaurant that will make its world premier in Arlington, Texas. It has the appearance of a direct dueling swath the the crazies over at Chick Fil A. This means you can once again enjoy that very similar style chicken sandwich without a side of hate, and it will be open on Sunday.    Continue reading →
