The Dish: Fried chicken options flooding local restaurants this spring

Print
Fried chicken, the meal of choice for spring picnics, is popping up on multiple San Diego restaurant menus this month in sandwiches and other variations. Here’s the latest:
Junya’s Crispy Karaage: The latest culinary creation from RakiRaki Ramen owner/chef Junya Watanabe is his twist on the Japanese style of fried chicken known as karaage. Antibiotic-free chicken is marinated for 48 hours in fermented soy sauce and 12 spices, garlic and ginger, then coated with 22 spices, double-fried and served with house Japanese (kewpie) mayonnaise. The karaage is available in regular and spicy varieties in jumbo boxes, in sliders, with fries, in ramen or curry and in a bento box, priced from $11.40 to $25. The new JCK menu, introduced last week, is available at the RakiRaki location at 4646 Convoy St., Suite 102-A in Kearny Mesa. It’s also available for takeout. Visit rakirakiramen.com.

SPOKANE, Wash. — Frigid temperatures are in the forecast and the City of Spokane would like those experiencing homelessness to know that services are available to them.
The regional shelter system is adjusting by flexing operations and supplementing with temporary housing options to account for COVID restrictions. A release from the city said the system will create capacity within the shelter system by prioritizing hotel and motel stays for those at the highest risk of COVID.
Shelter providers are assessing their specific populations to coordinate who would be the best candidates for congregate space and hotel options. Those seeing assistance should reach out to a service provider, who will work directly with hotel operators for arrangements.

SPOKANE, Wash. — As Washington continues to navigate COVID vaccine rollout, it can be hard to keep up. We’re here to make things easier, so when the time comes for you to get the shot, figuring out where to get it is one less thing on your plate.
First, you need to figure out if you qualify for the vaccine — providers are going in a phased order. Currently, the state is prioritizing those 65 and older (or 50 and older if you live in a multigenerational household), as well as educators and child care workers in Washington.

Spokane got a grant for a new young adult shelter, but the mayor doesn't want it here. What now?

S
ince the city of Spokane was awarded a $2.7 million grant this summer for a young adult shelter, city and regional leaders have agreed on one thing: The shelter is urgently needed.
What they can't agree on is where to put it. That's frustrated Fawn Schott, the president and CEO of the local Volunteers of America, the nonprofit that would operate the shelter.
"This is NIMBY at its core," Schott says. "Nobody wants a shelter in their backyard."

How Spokane County has spent its $91 million in COVID-19 relief funding

The Spokane Regional Health District has received about $8 million in CARES funding distributed by the county.
A
s COVID-19 made its first wave across the country, and schools and businesses shut down, Congress passed the CARES Act this spring in an effort to dampen the economic fallout of the pandemic.
Spokane County received about $91 million from the $2.2 trillion stimulus bill, signed by President Donald Trump on March 27. That meant that three Spokane County commissioners — Republicans Al French, Josh Kerns and Mary Kuney — got to decide how to dole out money to affected businesses, government agencies and nonprofits. The money has to be spent by the end of this year.
