Executive Chef Noah Clark of BOX Chicken at Westside Eats, West Los Angeles Part 2

from SoCal Restaurant Show

“Owner & Executive Chef Noah Clark and his family have brought their highly anticipated, award-winning BOX Chicken home to Los Angeles! This family legacy, rooted in culinary innovation, is introducing their revolutionary new fast-casual experience featuring BOX Chicken’s signature Japanese American Chicken Tendie, a mouth-wateringly delicious fusion of Japanese and American flavors that completely redefines the original Chicken Tender.”“Founded by Los Angeles native Maggie Antoine over four decades ago, BOX Chicken began as a modest Bento Box operation serving Japanese tour groups and the film industry. Her signature Japanese American chicken tender, crafted from her Japanese heritage, became a city favorite, winning hearts across Los Angeles and beyond. In the late 1990s, Maggie and her sister, Reiko Clark, took their success to Atlanta, GA launching a successful franchise and receiving multiple awards. Now, led by Maggie’s nephew and Reiko’s son, Executive Chef Noah Clark, BOX Chicken has returned to its hometown to launch an entirely reinvented concept, bringing Angelenos their legendary Chicken Tendie that started it all.”“ Operating out of Westside Eats cloud kitchen in West Los Angeles, BOX Chicken is making its mark in Greater Los Angeles, with plans to expand through ghost kitchens across the city, leading to a flagship store. ““Chef Noah Clark, who calls this fusion “Japanese Soul Food,” draws from his rich cultural heritage as a child of an African American father and Japanese American mother. “Growing up in Atlanta, we called ourselves ‘Blackanese.’ Raised on both California rolls and collard greens, we blend both flavors into something extraordinary,” says Chef Noah. “Los Angeles, my new home, feels like the perfect place to reintroduce BOX Chicken.””Chef Noah takes a 2nd break from his busy Cloud Kitchen (Sepulveda Boulevard at Pico Blvd. in West Los Angeles) to continue with us
