Just Keep Plucking That $79 Chicken
Good news, the allegedly best roast chicken in New York City only costs $79.

But was he a happy chicken? Did he have friends?
I'm hoping I can settle for the second best roast chicken in NYC, as long as it's closer to $25. Which, I understand, is markup from the $8 that a decently-sourced free-range 4-lb chicken should cost wholesale.
Oh yeah, who eats a whole chicken all to themselves unless it's a midget? Do you really eat more than half a pound of meat at a single serving? So maybe this works as a group meal like one of those suckling pig roasts, just smaller.
Eh whatever I'm depressed.
In NYC, chicken plucks you.
Any food for $79 should be the best of whatever food it is.
For that kind of money, want the server to pick my teeth with the beak.
I have had this chicken and it is delicious. Foie gras stuffing. 'nuff said.
Nice usage of the word "allegedly"! Plus — aren't those guys overconceiving Everything?!
I'm out of town as you know, but I am never going to their spots if I come up… am already sure it would be a big mistake.
Hate to add this, Choire, but your title »Just Keep
Plucking That $79 Chicken« would be perfect as
a line in any Kate Bush song text, not to mention
in later gaffa-specimen-setting MTV Music Video
Mashup Awards. Not so much on a T, even if'd fit.
