Pepperfire Hot Chicken

Chicken restaurant · Tomorrow's Hope

"Consistently mentioned by friends as all-caps HOT and with explicit warnings about its heat levels, this food is best approached like you’re handling a wild snake: Don't get cocky or you'll get bit. The mild and medium is where most diners dabble. Grab a seat at a long table—we’re all friends here—and try the basic chicken tenders, the deep-fried grilled cheese, Applefire (waffles, tenders, and apples), or go all out and buy a whole damn chicken. Each dinner is served up with two sides and ranges from no heat to "these will jump on you and won't let you go." You've been warned." - Kristin Luna
