New Chicken Shack Menu Centered Around Fried Chicken Is Available Only Through a QR Code at the Restaurant
Fried chicken is as essential to Southern cooking as smoked meats, and no restaurant knows that better than Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que. Now Lucille’s has created the Chicken Shack, a restaurant within a restaurant, focusing on craveable buttermilk fried and smoked chicken specialties, premium sides and a special dessert. Guests can see and order the new Chicken Shack secret menu by using their smartphone to scan a QR code at the table or the welcome poster at any of the company’s 22 restaurants throughout California, and in Las Vegas and Tempe, Arizona.
