Profile

Following in the multinational footsteps of the Guatemalan chick­en chain Pollo Campero, Frisby is a Colombian fast-food franchise with its eye on the American market. Its first foothold lures the Jackson Heights populace with crunchy, salty fried chicken—thickly bat­tered and moist-fleshed, $3.99 for a two-piece serving, with packets of Kraft honey to drizzle on top—plus sides like boiled potatoes, sweet corn, fried plantains and yuca, and tough little hockey pucks they call arepas. Cowboy-style beans are a better choice. — Rob Patronite and Robin Rainsfeld
