This rotisserie-chicken-intensive joint in the ‘Burg, bless you, offers locals something other than Thai food. “The most popular reaction was, ‘I’ve lived in the neighborhood for years—how come you didn’t come before?’” says owner Omri Magal, who also lives in the area. The comfort-food-ish menu is straightforward and affordable: half or quarter chicken ($8 to $9) from Brooklyn-based Los Paisanos, sides like mad-and-cheese and sweet potatoes, plus chicken Marsala and beef stew. The cryptic name is a reference to the previous tenant, a longtime butcher shop, and Magal went to great lengths to preserve the original shop’s essence, meat hooks and all.
