Main Streat Food Hall at H-E-B Mueller features Roots Chicken Shak, home of Chef Tiffany Derry's Famous Duck-Fat Fried Chicken. Known for her culinary expertise and warm southern charm, Chef Derry gained international notoriety when she appeared on Season 7 of Bravo’s Top Chef, and has made appearances as a culinary expert and judge on several TV shows, including Bar Rescue, Top Chef Junior, Chopped Junior, Bobby’s Dinner Battle, and Foodfighters. She is also heavily involved in the culinary community with a focus on food access, education, gender and racial equity. “Feeding people great food and putting a smile on their face is at the heart of everything I do, and nothing does that better than Southern comfort food. I love food, and I’m excited to share the food that holds great childhood memories for me with the Austin community”, said Chef Tiffany Derry. “More importantly, we know that our community is struggling with health, economic, and social justice challenges and we hope to bring comfort with our Roots’ cooking as well as join the Austin community to help make a positive difference.” The Roots Chicken Shak menu will feature Duck Fat Fried Chicken Wings and Duck Fat Fried Chicken Strips, its Big Bird and Spicy Bird chicken sandwiches, Shak Caesar Salad, The Barnyard Cobb salad, and Duck Fat Fries with house-made Clucking Sauces. And to finish it all off, Banana Pudding made with vanilla custard, cookies and fresh banana and Southern Sweet Tea!
