“When Food 101 first opened it was known for its Southern home cooking, and so naturally fried chicken was on the menu,” says Executive Chef Justin Keith. “During the past decade we have tried to create different spins on that version and our customers just won’t hear of it. We have the guests who come in a couple of times a week to enjoy the same fried chicken recipe that they fell in love with twelve years ago."

Food 101 will honor National Fried Chicken Day on July 6th with a special menu highlighting all aspects of the chicken, including fried chicken skins with white barbecue sauce; crispy chicken wings served with Louisiana hot sauce and celery; cornmeal-crusted chicken livers with herb buttermilk dip; a crispy chicken sandwich with smoked gouda, arugula, tomato and truffled honey mustard; fried chicken salad with pickled peaches, cucumber, goat cheese, almonds and white balsamic vinaigrette; and, of course, buttermilk fried chicken with Idaho whipped potatoes, green beans, cole slaw and chicken gravy.

Food 101 is located at 4969 Roswell Road in Sandy Springs. For more information, visit www.food101.com or call 404.497.9700.
