Hill Country Chicken opened its doors today at noon (service runs till 11 p.m. daily), so why don’t we have a look inside? Designer Garrett Singer sourced a bunch of vintage furniture to make the bi-level space look like a fifties country café upstairs (where you order at a counter and walk your tray over to your booth) and a classic rec room downstairs, where there’s an open bakery and a vintage arcade game. Of course, there’s also a heck of a lot of wood paneling; as the Commodore can tell you, that’s pretty much requisite when you’re serving fried chicken and pimento sandwiches. Check out the homey look, have another glance at the menu, and please, don’t get the board games too greasy.
