15 Black-Owned Chicago Restaurants Serving Up Serious Comfort Food | Eater
"When Mary and Gus Rickettes opened Royal Chicken in 1964, patrons waited in line for the shaken chicken and secret sauce. Unfortunately, the spot burned down, but the couple was able to reopen in 1969 under a new name, Uncle Remus. Today, Uncle Remus is run by Mary and Gus’ daughter, who has ensured that same chicken is on the menu. Over the years it’s become a community stalwart where you can always go for wings, a whole chicken, or whatever piece you’d like, all sauced up and ready to dive in. Our only recommendation? Get extra napkins." - Ariel Kanter
