Reviews
- wave_sunflowerThis place is on the 8th floor of Joy City, in the snack section — super easy to find. The shop looks pretty clean, and apparently it used to be a fried chicken spot back in the day. I tried their 1973 crispy chicken and honestly, it was sooo good!! That secret spice mix they use smells amazing, the second you walk by you're just dying to eat some. To be fair I think it tastes better than YX — way less salty. My absolute favorites were the sweet plum sweet potato fries and the big chicken cutlet. Definitely coming back.
