Citizen's Band

Aside from the quality of the restaurant's iced tea, nothing sets the tone of the meal like the very first bites of their appetizers. However, before you put that food in your mouth, your eyes need to be titillated and the people at Citizen's Band, on the corner of Folsom and 8th really came up with a doozy.  Above, you see a photo of their ...well, can you guess what it is?  Hmmm, give up?  No, it's not sliced sea cucumbers on top of a tres leches cake.  It actually is a mac and cheese appetizer topped with three onion rings.  Tres interesante, right? Yes, it looks odd, but oddly enough it's soooo goood! The melted cheese on the crispy onion rings ties in well with the macaroni and cheese that's quite melty and, of yes, cheesy. The sweetness of the onions was a great counter point to all that creamy goodness.

Above, you'll see another awesome appetizer which is inspired by a Quebecois dish called poutine.  French fries with gravy, and chunks of meat - you can't go wrong!

The entree that they're famous for is their fried chicken.  The well-deserved buzz is merited because...well, just look at it!
Note, if you visit their website, you'll see a sample menu, but since they're menu changes everytime, don't fall in love too soon.  I was browsing through their website and I thought I was going to order the bacon and egg appetizer, but...Alas, they don't have it anymore.  Darn you, false advertiser!
