This new 20-seat casual lunch and dinner destination will serve whole, free-range, Taiwanese roast chicken, which will be up for order fresh-out-of-the-oven during opening days at noon and 5 pm. This offering will be $32 and include a soup and rice side.
Folks can also call ahead and pre-order a bird if they can’t make those times. Half-orders of the chicken will be released at a later time.
