I just tried Dave's hot chicken last week. Another disappointment, I'm a sucker for a Nashville hot chicken sandwich but Dave's was mediocre at best and that's being generous. I've had black pepper that was hotter than their "reaper"
I'm a big bitch when it comes to heat. I order BWW medium wings and find them to be 'just right' in terms of heat level, so my trip to Chick'n had me thinking their medium would be a good fit.
Their medium does not fuck around, I'm scared to know what Damn Hot is like. Their scale is Southern, Mild, Medium, Hot, Damn Hot. Wife got either Southern our second time (she had Medium before and felt it was a bit much), and tells me it was a mistake. I don't think I'd ever deviate from medium, not just for the heat but also the flavors in general are delightful.
The only chicken sandy I fuck with is the ones from a local joint called Nan's. Secrets already out though, they got featured in the wash post.
Another one I'll have to try at some point when we're up that way again. Food tourism is my jam.
It's mid ass chicken. One opened up around here recently, and there was like a 2hr wait for a week. I've had the one in Boston, and it's just 'alright'. The sauce is ok. The toast is the best damn part.
There is zero chance I'm waiting two hours for food. Though there's some mexican breakfast buffet in Boston that we went to with our friends and that was fantastic, there was a bit of a wait but not two hours.
