Sichuan chili-fried birds are coming to Manhattan
Briefly

In a world where prices continue to go up, Huang is doing the opposite. At both locations, Pecking House's quarter fried chicken with a side will be priced at $15, down from $18 for a two-piece chicken with a side. Meanwhile, the half-fried chicken with a side will be set at $23, previously $27 for a three-piece chicken with a side. This intentional pricing strategy exemplifies Huang's commitment to accessibility even in challenging economic times.
This month, the fried birds are flying over the East River, landing in one of the city's most historic neighborhoods. Pecking House (83 Henry Street) is coming to Chinatown. Parked right under the Manhattan Bridge, the newest locale is much smaller than the original coop.
Chef Huang sees the newest locale as a homecoming, hoping to 'reclaim Chinatown's narrative, honor our heritage, and shape its future.' Stating, 'Now, it is time for us, as second-generation chefs, to reclaim Chinatown's narrative, honor our heritage, and shape its future.' He emphasizes the importance of cultural representation through his culinary endeavors.
