"The Nashville hot chicken chain, one of the fastest-growing restaurants in the country, is opening its first New York outpost at 944 8th Avenue, near 56th Street, on August 19. The menu will be the same as the restaurant’s other locations, an employee at the new shop confirms to Eater, meaning tenders and hot chicken sandwiches at varying heat levels — “No Spice” to “Reaper” — are on the way. Doors open to the public at 10:30 a.m., and Drake, an investor in the business, is rumored to be making an appearance sometime on opening day, the employee says." - Luke Fortney
