Address

727 N Broadway #128, Far East Plaza

It's a corner of an ageing Chinatown mall, yet a line forms at the stairs before opening. The chicken is fried Nashville-style and brushed with chilli oil, with heat from Country (none) up to Howlin' (the top). The signature Sando is a fried breast on a buttered bun with slaw and pickles. Reviewers often warn that even Medium hits hard.
