"The menu at Big Dean’s is astoundingly short, but that’s because this Southern cuisine specialist wants to focus on one thing: Nashville hot chicken. Get the Go-To, which comes with four crispy, juicy tenders in your choice of three heat levels, a thick slice of buttery Texas toast, and creamy coleslaw or crinkle-cut fries. Wash it all down with a tall glass of cold sweet tea for a splash of the South in the heart of Pennsylvania." - Victoria Gough
