Crispy and juicy fried chicken on cheddar waffles, savoy cabbage slaw.

Food: 4.2/5.0
Service: 4.2/5.0

We came on a Saturday night, Tiff and I. While making the trek from the subway stop, we saw a group of boys behind, speed-walking. They were on to us and unceremoniously tried to get ahead of us to Buttermilk Channel. They succeeded in both securing a table first and for looking like major world-class douches. For our table, both of us spent 30 minutes at a wine bar close by with a chilled sauvignon blanc. 

Our server was really friendly and accommodating when we specially requested for the duck fat hash, a side which was served with the special of the day... and it was every bit as delicious as it sounded. Plus it had ramps! As buttermilk channel was known for its fried chicken, I definitely ordered it. The chicken had a lovely crust and was juicy on the inside. Cheddar waffles, slaw and syrup were perfect accompaniments, I polished off everything on my plate. As if that weren't enough, for dessert, I ordered the pecan pie sundae--genius! It had everything I liked. Pecan pie filling (with minimal pecans) and glorious Van Leeuwen ice-cream :) I tried my hardest to dispel the thought that I probably consumed more than 10,000 calories that day. Yikes. Aside from my expanding waistline, I highly recommend a trip to Buttermilk Channel for the tasty fare and friendly service, but be prepared to wait if you go on the weekends.

The most delicious duck fat hash, topped with grilled ramps.

Tiff had no part in this artery-busting concoction. 
On the day we visited, filming was underway for Men in Black 3.
The crew fashioned a replica of the subway.
Blocks and Blocks were reserved for filming...guess this is one way the city of nyc makes money?
Vintage cars. A scene from a time long past.
