Arlen's Chicken Opens In Evanston: See What DMK's Frying Up

Chicago's fried chicken scene grows to include one more with today's opening of Arlen's Chicken in Evanston. From DMK Restaurants, the new chicken spot replaces the shuttered DMK Burger & Fish and keeps things simple with a straightforward, focused menu (see below).

The menu features chicken nuggets (in 6-, 12- and 18-piece options) that come with either tater tots or biscuits, as well as a biscuit sandwich featuring either chicken or egg. There's also sides (tots, biscuits and cole slaw) as well as DMK shakes (toasted marshmallow, anyone?) and a couple of other dessert items. Named after staffer Britt Arlen (who won a company sponsored chicken cook-off for the honor), Arlen's Chicken is now open.
