Bottleneck Management announces today the launch of its brand-new virtual kitchen concept, Rebel’s Hot Chicken, presenting a bold and playful take on the fiery Nashville-style chicken that continues to reign as a sought-after flavor for foodies and spice-lovers alike. Operating out of the group’s Wells Street location of Old Town Pour House, the menu will be available daily for carryout and delivery.
Bottleneck, which operates a variety of premier restaurants and bars throughout Chicagoland and across the U.S. including Old Town Pour House, Sweetwater Tavern & Grille, South Branch, City Works, and a previously launched barbeque-centric virtual kitchen coined Secret Sauce, among others, enthusiastically introduces Rebel’s Hot Chicken as its second dynamic virtual kitchen concept.
