"If you want to try Pecking House’s spicy, crunchy, and waitlist-inducing chili fried chicken, you have two options. You can either wait eight weeks to have this Chinese-influenced poultry delivered to you, or you can take the Q46 bus to Pecking House’s dining room in Fresh Meadows, which is only open on weekends. We suggest you do the latter. Beyond Pecking House’s fried chicken that’s loaded with tingly Tianjin chilies, the chicken sandwich is a huge, crunchy masterpiece. It comes with a touch of pineapple jam and some cabbage that’s packed with dark soy sauce flavor, all on a brioche bun. Add an order of the orange wet wings drowning in citrus butter sauce, and you have a must-try dining experience in NYC. Bring a group, order the whole menu, and never wait to get this chicken delivered again." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, carlo mantuano
