Shaquille O’Neal To Attend Big Chicken’s Restaurant Opening in Houston This Weekend | Eater Houston

"Texas’s first standalone brick-and-mortar location of Shaq’s fast-casual fried chicken sandwich concept is opening in Woodland Square with a grand-opening celebration on Saturday, June 24 that will include giveaways, games and a live DJ from 1–3 p.m. The menu mixes the owner’s childhood favorites with modern comfort-food twists, featuring crispy chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, Cheez-It–crusted mac and cheese, shakes and signature items such as the “Shaq Attack” sandwich (pepper jack, jalapeño coleslaw and spicy chipotle barbecue sauce), the mac-and-cheese–loaded “Charles Barkley” with crispy fried onions and roasted garlic aioli, and “Dirty” fries topped with cheese, bacon, banana peppers and chipotle barbecue sauce. The opening is part of an aggressive expansion plan that aims for at least 50 Texas locations and more than 150 nationwide, joining existing outposts in multiple states, cruise ships and arena venues." - Brittany Britto Garley
