Prince's Hot Chicken Shack

I made my second venture to Prince's Hot Chicken Shack in Nashville. This is a wild place. There is no way to describe it. There is Mild, Medium, Hot or Extra Hot. Both times I have gone for hot but this time there seemed to be some extra fire. My first bite brought an immediate endorphin rush. The burn stays with you for at least 60 minutes. It also likes to re-visit you the next day if you know what I mean.

On this evening I even did the crazy thing of having it with wine. I had the 2005 Joh. Jos. Christoffel Erben Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett. Actually not bad. The sweetness and light acidity did not distract. A nice Kabinett that may be mistaken as a Spätlese.

If you ever make there I give two pieces of advice. Remember it is made to order and can take up to 2 hours to get your food. Also, watch the Video. It is a little long ... but believe me ... it is worth it.
