"Atlanta residents have known the strength of Magic City Kitchen for decades, long before the recent media fixation on the signature seasoning. Despite the joking winks and smirks from out-of-towners, they’re never shy about grabbing a late lunch, an early-evening dinner, or delivery and pickup orders from the institution. L.J., who has led the kitchen at Magic City for 20 years and asked to remain anonymous due to her ongoing work in the hospitality industry, says Williams was a regular who eventually saw the kitchen team formalize his order, name it after him, and add it to the establishment’s menu well before he broke the NBA bubble and garnered the club’s chicken wings a new flood of national media attention." - Jacinta Howard
