Hot Clucks

Philly definitely isn’t Nashville, but there are a lot of places popping up where you can get hot chicken. If you only go to two spots though, one should be Asad’s, and the other should definitely be Hot Clucks. The menu is simple: tenders, sliders, or both with fries. There are four heat options to choose from, starting with “plain” all the way up to “unbelievable”. If you love a mouth inferno, go for the latter. And in case you tempt fate and need relief, the halal shop has fresh-squeezed lemonade (including our favorites mango and strawberry) that’s some of the best in town.
