This Chicken Is Pork


Something I wrote in the new Oxford American made Phil remember a treat of his young adulthood in Binghamton, NY, a treat called "city chicken." Writes Phil, "City Chicken is not really from the 'city' (we're talking the southern tier of New York State here, less than an hour from beautiful downtown Scranton, Pa.), and it is not really chicken (it's pork)." As corroboration, Phil sends this "link" to the restaurant where he used to get his city chicken.
