Rupinder Singh came back from a trip to Nashville convinced hot chicken needed Indian spices, and opened Hot Murga on Howe Street in 2023. The result is sandwiches, sliders and loaded fries built on 100% certified halal chicken, with heat you choose yourself: none, mild, medium, hot, or super hot. The Murga Masala sandwich and the Badmaash mac and cheese, topped with fried chicken, tikka masala and mint chutney, are what people come back for. Vegetarian and vegan options too.
