Hey, I have a blog. Check out my lunch at Chickabiddy.
In an effort for me to dislike Atlantic Station more, the gods decided the first time I would go there in months, they’d throw in a tennis tournament with many streets closed and lots of traffic. Figures.
The restaurant was very full. We would have had to wait it we didn’t spot a few bar seats open.
A half hot chicken was the best thing we ate. The hot sauce, which I’m fairly certain is Tabasco based, is hotter than I’d expect, the vinegar punch quite pleasing. They need to do a slightly better job of sauce coverage. The cornmeal batter is not my favorite, and is thick in parts. Chicken is extremely tender, definitely not overcooked. Vegetarian “chili” cheese fries are a pass.
Fried chicken sandwich is dying for seasoning, especially to complement the bitterness of my burnt bun.
Spicy green Tabasco wings had good flavor, but the skin had not rendered out enough, and the chicken not cooked enough (but not under cooked per se) to easily tear away from the bones of the flats.
Maybe these few comments sound negative overall, but Chickabiddy shows promise, especially if you like going to Atlantic Station. I’d easily order the spicy fried chicken again. I need to try the Piri Piri chicken which is wood grilled vs the rotisserie version at Bantam & Biddy. It’s a very fine addition for AC, that is, if you can tear yourself away from Copeland’s Cheesecake Bistro.
