The dish at Bernal Heights' the Front Porch is called Miss Ollie's chicken, and blends Caribbean and Southern influences. The fowl is brined with citrus juices, then rubbed with an herb-and-spice mix (including habanero and parsley) and then a bath of soy-sparked beaten egg before the pieces are dipped in bread crumbs and fried, with a quick finish in the oven. Depending on the season and how the chef feels that day, sides might include black-eyed peas and collard greens flavored with pork belly.

Since we'll go anywhere for fried chicken, it's a good year in which two new contenders for San Francisco's best arrive. At farmerbrown, Jay Foster offers a wing, leg, and breast, which he's brined for 12 to 24 hours, and then soaked in buttermilk overnight. It comes out moist and tasty under a peppery flour-and-milk batter. The bird arrives with mac 'n' cheese and crunchy, well-vinegared coleslaw. The dish at the Front Porch is called Miss Ollie's chicken, and blends Caribbean and American... More »
Brillat-Savarin once said, "The invention of a new dish is of greater importance to the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star." And for us the star of the menu at the Front Porch is the Dungeness crab atop sweet white corn grits porridge. We love their deep-fried chicken livers saturated with onion gravy on brioche toast, too, but we've had deep-fried chicken livers before.
