Resurrection Ale House brings back fried chicken (for one night)
Back in December, there was a bit of a fat-dude hullabaloo when chef Joey Chmiko of Resurrection Ale House (2425 Grays Ferry Ave.) pulled his national-accolade-earning twice-fried chicken off the menu. Now comes word from the RAH team that Chmiko will bring back the "rather famous, yet rarely seen" signature dish on Tuesday, March 29. Starting at lunchtime, the kitchen will cook chicken, and only chicken, until supplies are depleted. When it's gone, it's gone, so plan accordingly if you want to get a plate.
In more immediate Resurrection news, the Grays Ferry bar will tap Russian River's cult beer Pliny the Younger this coming Tuesday, March 15, at noon. (UPDATE: Clarification on the Pliny event — RAH is actually tapping its sixtel of the stuff early, at 11 a.m., for folks who RSVPed to a Thursday morning email blast. Though there might be a few pints left when Resurrection opens at noon, don't get your heart set on it. *falls to knees* PLINYYYYYYYYY!!!!!)
The beer, named after the treasured magistrate of Ancient Rome, has long been lusted after; it's so transcendently good, an early prototype was used to regenerate the hacked-off limbs of Centurions during the Iberian War in the 6th Century.* Man, it must be really delicious!
