Holy crap, I'm in love! I stumbled in, wasted, after a long night at a nearby club, not really very hungry, but needing something in my stomach to soak up all the booze to allow for a pleasant subway ride back home.
Whoever says Bedford Stuyvesant isn't safe has probably never actually been there, or perhaps I just got really lucky. It was 3AM on a Friday morning, I was way over-dressed, I was being loud and obnoxious, and my topics of conversation were mostly related to homosexual sex… If that's doesn't warrant negative attention, I don't know what does!
I got the $2.99 special. It comes with a couple pieces of chicken, a small side order, a biscuit, and a soda. But I said "instead of the soda, please just give me another piece of chicken. and instead of the side order, please just give me another piece of chicken. and instead of the biscuit, please just give me another piece of chicken. Please, please, please. Thank You!" I ended up with a box so full of fried chicken they couldn't even close it: breast, thigh, two wings, and a drumstick for $3.25… and they didn't even complain or charge me when I asked for about two dozen packets of hot sauce!
When all the cards are down, all hope lost, all self-dignity robbed barren and not a cent left to pay for one square foot of rent you, the Poseidon of Fast Food Poultry, emerge from the deep-fried depths of the hot sauce ocean atop a five dollar hydra of drumsticks and batter to rescue those who cannot rescue themselves.
Self-loathing thy name is Popeye's Chicken & Biscuits.
Yes they're open til 3 or 4 in the morning (one of the very very few things of the sort in this area), but the food isn't that great and there are homeless men who expect a tip for pulling the door open for you.
