This episode is full of crunchy chicken ASMR. This isn’t your typical fried chicken fare - it’s even more finger-lickin’ good, found in the heart of West Philly. We’ve got an exciting lineup of Best Bites, and a ton of events and pop-ups to fill your calendar.

- (06:46) Mabruka Kane joins us in studio. She and her sister Hayat Ali serve up Ethiopian-inspired fried chicken at Doro Bet in Philly. Not only does it have that perfect crunch, it’s gluten free, too. She tells us the secret ingredient in this heavenly chicken coating
- (12:35) Mabruka tells us about her journey from growing up in Ethiopia to meeting her husband while working in hospitality, and later opening three restaurants in three years here in Philadelphia, starting in 2020 at the height of the pandemic.
