Thai wings and crispy-fried chicken thighs at Southside Station in Berkeley. (@eatsouthsidestation on Instagram)
THE THAI WING: Southside Station (Berkeley)
Walking into this bare bones-looking operation in the orbit of UC Berkeley, you’d never guess owner Louie Chaivisut is a Le Cordon Bleu grad who staged at Chez Panisse. He also ran a popular Thai-style fried-chicken popup at Cheese Board, and here shows similar fry mastery with jumbo wings that are super-plump and intriguingly complex. The chicken is first dry-marinated in garlic, onion, sugar and pepper, then lightly fried and dusted with a “zing powder” (chile, rice, lime) so flavorful, you hardly need the accompanying housemade sriracha mayo. It’s a testament to how well-prepared they are that if you get them to go on top of a side of garlic noodles, at home, the meat remains juicy and the batter cracks like glass candy.
Details: $12 for five wings (one sauce). 2504 Shattuck Ave., Berkeley; eatsouthsidestation.com

Wings and garlic from Southside Station in Berkeley. Cesar Hernandez, Cesar Hernandez / The Chronicle
Southside Station Parked on Shattuck Avenue in Berkeley, Southside Station imbues its wings with Thai flavors. Battered and dusted with chile and rice powder, the dish here is tangy, spicy and salty. Tamarind dipping sauce brings a bit of sweetness, while rice powder, an underrated garnish, adds an extra texture to the equation. You can order the wings ($14) a la carte or as a combo with garlic noodles ($19).
