People often ask me if I grew up here. Sometimes they outright assume that I did. The “city” that they “know” that I’m a “native” of changes. Could be San Francisco, Oakland or Berkeley. And even though I was born in Stanford Hospital and lived as a baby in East Palo Alto, I grew up back east. I lived in Chicago, Boston, Alabama and Indianapolis, like one does.

Just when it seems we’ve been there and done that with the fried chicken sandwich — didn’t we peak with Popeye’s 2019 hot take? — Bay Area chefs are rolling out more signature styles from extra hot and sour versions on Dutch crunch buns to those using chicken thighs first brined in pickles for 48 hours.
Of course, fried chicken sandwiches are nothing new; they’ve been on menus at other restaurants such as mom-and-pop shop Bakesale Betty in Oakland, which debuted its now famous sandwich nearly 20 years ago.

I ordered a lot of Burma Love because at some points the only option for excitement in my day was food that was bold and spicy. And because I could add on a container of the spicy fermented tea leaf dressing and Burmese crunchy mix for “DIY” tea leaf salads. I also ordered too much pizza (Slice House, Square Pie Guys, Beretta) because if not now, when, and because pizza will always be the food that travels best? Oh, and Bacon Bacon continued to be my hangover savior. It’s way too close to my apartment. I probably need to move.
