OUR HISTORY

In 2017, four childhood friends came up with a simple concept: take Nashville Hot

Chicken and make it better than anyone else in America. With only a couple

thousand dollars to their names, they opened up a pop-up concept in a parking lot

in East Hollywood, serving a simple menu of Tenders, Sliders, Fries, and Kale Slaw. They

created a cult following – with lines consistently over an hour long.

After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the Team took the plunge. In

January 2018, it opened its first physical Restaurant: at a sleepy strip center in East

Hollywood. Demand for the craveable Hot Chicken exceeded all expectations. Sales

grew every month from then on, with consistently long lines throughout the day.

Dave, the co-founder and Chef, was trained at Thomas Keller's Bouchon Restaurant

organization. He came up with a simple process: take the best quality Chicken,

prepare it in a proprietary Brine and, after deep frying, top the most tender Chicken in

the world with one of seven Signature Spice Blends.

From parking lot pop-up to Hot Chicken World Leader, we will become an Iconic

Brand with a cult-like following, recognized for mind-blowing quality, great service and

an awesome vibe. xhyhwjd
