A Late-Night Fried Chicken Joint; Bunk Bar Adds Lunch

NORTHEAST: Thrillist Portland is the first to report that Mack & Dub's Excellent Chicken & Waffles, which (you guessed it!) specializes in deep-fried Southern comfort food, has opened on NE MLK between Fremont and Beech. The restaurant, which offers fried chicken and smoked meats for either dine-in and take-out, has a performance space for live music, promising weekend DJs that keep things spinning until 3am. More information here. [Thrillist]

CENTRAL EASTSIDE INDUSTRIAL: Bunk Sandwiches bossman Tommy Habetz announced that the formerly booze-time only Bunk Bar will begin a daily lunch service, effective immediately. Bunk Bar's new lunch hours make it the third Bunk location (including downtown on SW 6th and on SE Morrison) where worker bees can get their midday meal. New hours moving forward: 11am-2am Tuesday-Saturday, 11am-midnight Sunday and Monday. [EaterWire]
