The new Pies ‘n’ Thighs has opened its doors, and Williamsburg’s most influential hipsters are rejoicing. At least that seemed to be the case when we recently visited with Forking Tasty’s Jason Anello. As a matter of fact, I’m pretty sure we happened to be eating there while the hipster council of elders was holding an election or something. They apparently have a new leader, and he has a really sweet tank top on. It does appear, though, that all those people in rolled up jean shorts know great home-style Southern cooking when they see it. This new, larger Pies ‘n’ Thighs location is still turning out amazing fried chicken and comfort food classics that make you feel good inside. The chicken biscuit might be one of the most ridiculously unhealthy things we’ve ever seen on a plate, and it’s delicious. The place is cheap too - and cash only. No wonder it’s hipster central. Luckily, there’s an ATM out front spits out ten dollar bills, and we’re pretty sure we saw a Coinstar machine next to it. Bring a bag of change and your best suspenders.
