Houston’s Eater Awards Winners for 2022 - Eater Houston
"In 2022, Eater Houston made the bold claim that the city is the modern U.S. fried chicken capital, naming a slew of essential places to eat the crispy, crunchy fowl. Though plenty of OG restaurants like Himalaya and Frenchy’s fry up some of the city’s best renditions, newcomer Gatlin’s Fins & Feathers in Independence Heights is a solid offering for anyone looking to indulge in a crispy hot platter of fried chicken and fish. Helmed by pitmaster Greg Gatlin and executive chef Michelle Wallace, the restaurant offers platters of fried chicken, buttermilk biscuits, soulful sides, and an undeniable Viet-Cajun fried chicken sandwich that hones in on Houston flavors. Put plainly, go try it." - Brittany Britto Garley
