The Best Fried Chicken in New York City

"This is where the Brooklyn hipster fried chicken movement began under the Williamsburg Bridge in 2006, when Pies ’n’ Thighs was at the Rockstar Bar. Its current location still turns out excellent plump fried chicken pieces. The bird is heavily brined, and the pies aren’t bad, either." - Robert Sietsema
