LA Street Food Sensation “Dave’s Hot Chicken” Opens at Place Vendôme Mall

Dave’s Hot Chicken, the LA street food sensation that has won a global Gen Z cult following and backing from mega stars has arrived in Qatar. An urban graffiti, LA hood style hang-out for the fast casual, hot and fiery fried chicken brand is now turning up the F&B heat in Lusail.

Located on the second floor of the extravagant Place Vendôme, Dave’s Hot Chicken can seat 104 diners and offers incredibly craveable juicy and hand-breaded ‘Hot and Spicy’ chicken tenders and sliders, which are spiced to order, with crispy fries, creamy mac n’ cheese and house-made kale slaw sides. The tenders and sliders come in seven spice ranges from ‘No Spice’ to the ‘Reaper’ which requires a signed waiver for those who dare to try. It’s the food which won over Canadian rapper Drake and actor/producer Samuel L Jackson as investors.

Dave’s Hot Chicken has arrived in Qatar in partnership with the transformative premium F&B operator, Lavoya Restaurant Group which is reshaping the GCC’s food and beverage landscape by introducing new and unique casual dining concepts.

Lavoya’s Co-Founder and CEO Walid Hajj says the timing for the new brand entry couldn’t be better:

“We are super excited to bring Dave’s Hot Chicken to Qatar, to the ground-breaking Lusail City and the fabulous Vendome Mall and at a time when the country will be packed with fans visiting for the World Cup and the nation is in celebration mood. We’re ready to win over fried chicken and spice lovers with this unique proposition and superior product which has a red-hot following around the globe. I can promise people in Qatar the same level of mind-blowing service and product quality that they would get if they were in LA.”  

Doha’s first outlet opening is another step in the brand’s extensive regional expansion to the Middle East led by premium restaurant operator Lavoya, planning to bring a total of 31 Dave’s Hot chicken to 6 countries in the region, with Riyadh to follow in Q1 2023.
