I thought the icon Slim Chicken was a Black man from a distance. That is what drew my attention to the restaurant. Once I got closer to the sign I realized that the icon is a chicken dressed up like a Black man. He is wearing a hat cocked to one side like a soul brother. The restaurant plays blues music. It is an attempt to mainstream franchise the chicken shacks from the Black Community. The food was good but not authentic.
There is a Blues musician from Chicago known as Mississippi Slim. I am not sure if there is any association to this restaurant chain.
Anyone know if this is related to Mississippi Slim the Blues Man from Chicago?
