Nashville Hot chicken Sandwich in Orange County
You know what's born out of adultery?
Nashville Hot Chicken! There was a Black-American man back in the 1930s in Nashville who was a notorious womanizer. Sick of his affairs, his wife doused up his fried chicken with a lot of hot peppers on one Sunday morning. Instead of it being a punishment for him dipping his stick where it didn't belong, he loved the titillating and mouth-numbing spicy chicken!
Since then, its fiery hot, and crispy sensation has been enjoyed around the US. Extra-martial affairs aside, Nashville hot chicken is served best with white bread, some coleslaw, and a pickle on the side.
This particular Nashville special was from Jay Bird’s Chicken at their Huntington Beach Branch. A food concept born in 2019 by the Wild Thyme Restaurant group, Jay Bird’s has continued to grow in California and even in Arizona. They offer various types of chicken sandwiches and offer levels of spiciness to adjust to their customers’ palate.
With my experience trying out their chicken sandwich and fries, I’ll be sure to line up and try their special Mac Daddy and fries next time. It’s a bun-mac and cheese-chicken breast-bun situation. I’m not quite sure if it’ll be a hit for me, but I’ll definitely have to try it for myself.
