it looks my favorite place to get fried chicken, powell’s place, is now being forced to move or close, due to a rent increase in increasingly gentrifying hayes valley. i guess you can’t blame them, as how do you deal with a rent increase from $2,800 to $7,350 a month?
people like the temptations and the rev. jesse jackson frequented powell’s, as well as bitches like scottie pippen, but their fried chicken is so good that we’ll let that one pass. plus, the best part is that they let you order individual parts, so you could order, say, five drumsticks and three thighs, and not be stuck with any breasts or wings.
but now what? i guess there’s lois the pie queen, but that’s all the way in oakland…

maybe we’ll let them open up shop in the symphony?
vivaldi and wings!
Oh honey, I didn’t know! I’m so sorry. Bloody gentrification of Hayes Valley!
We can go to Lois anytime you like. Even thought I can’t eat the biscuits anymore (no one puts lard in grits, do they?)
don’t be silly. lard goes in everything.
