A California-based group of dining spots that focus on an increasingly popular food item will be expanding to the Boston area.
According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Dave's Hot Chicken is bringing ten franchised locations to Suffolk County and Norfolk County, with a post from franchising.com saying that the fast-casual eateries will offer Nashville hot chicken, including tenders and sliders with heat levels ranging from "no spice" to "reaper") along with such items as macaroni and cheese, kale slaw, and cheese fries. The business first started out in Los Angeles in 2017 as a pop-up in a parking lot and is now eyeing a nationwide expansion.

[July 19 update: A new post from franchising.com states that ten more locations of Dave's Hot Chicken are now being planned for Middlesex County, presumably joining the ten previously mentioned outlets for Suffolk County and Norfolk County.]
[December 26 update: One of the Boston-area locations of Dave's Hot Chicken will be opening at Woburn Village, according to a page within the development's website.]
