Yard bird is second nature in Atlanta. I mean, you can find fried chicken in all four corners of metro Atlanta, NW, SW, NE, SE. But delicious fried chicken? Now, that’s another matter.

The city has made a name for itself with boneless chicken (Chick-Fil-A), chicken with bones in it (everywhere else) and even baked chicken (Picadilly). But there’s one place that knows what it’s doing when it comes to fried chicken.

Odd Bird’s Chicken Fried Steak Available April 11

On the second Wednesday of each month, West Egg Cafe hosts a pop-up concept called Odd Bird and their Chicken Fried Steak, with white gravy, waffle, rosemary syrup, is the Southern dish you need in your life.

On Wednesday, April 11, from 5:30 to 9 p.m., the Odd Bird will have the yard bird on and poppin’.

Hot chicken is having a serious moment in Atlanta. What with the entry of Gus’ Hot Chicken and Richard’s in Krog Street Market, you’d think a live spicy bird swooped to the city and made its nest. But while those restaurants are all good, Odd Bird has a captivating allure about it that is hard to match, let alone put into words.

Odd Bird is located at 1100 Howell Mill Road, Atlanta, Ga. 30318.

See you Wed, April 11, 5:30-9pm, at @westeggcafe.
