1. The Chicken on Fire

    Castro Valley isn't exactly where you'd expect a fried chicken revelation, but here we are. The Chicken on Fire does chimaek, the Korean tradition of fried chicken and cold beer, and does it well enough to drag people out to the suburbs. The wings come glazed in soy garlic or gochujang and shatter when you bite them. Grab a frosty beer, pick two sauces, and settle in with whoever you owe a low-key meal to.
