Yardbird Southern Table & Bar, the restaurant known for its award-winning fried chicken and modern take on Southern hospitality, is featuring the Battle of the Birds in July. The annual, month-long culinary competition, July 1-31, features six limited-edition chicken sandwiches inspired by the distinct flavors and cultures of the cities Yardbird calls home.<\/p>\n

Each of Yardbird\u2019s U.S. locations (Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, and Washington, D.C.) will serve an exclusive, limited-time special that reimagines the classic fried chicken sandwich through a local lens. The competition invites guests to vote for their favorite sandwich via @yardbirdrestaurants on Instagram, with one city ultimately earning Battle of the Birds bragging rights, and \u201ccrowned\u201d on August 1.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the many strengths of Yardbird is that each of our restaurants is deeply connected to its local community,\u201d said Matthew Licciardello, Chief Executive Officer of Yardbird Group. \u201cBattle of the Birds allows us to celebrate those local influences, while creating a shared experience across the brand. It\u2019s become a meaningful way to showcase our culinary talent, engage guests and highlight the creativity happening in our kitchens.\u201d<\/p>\n
