Chick & Hawk on Leucadia Boulevard in Encinitas pairs Michelin-recognized chef Andrew Bachelier with skateboarding world champion Tony Hawk in a fast-fine fried chicken concept that opened in September 2025. The signature Birdman sandwich layers a tallow-fried pasture-raised chicken thigh with fusion kimchi, Southern-style comeback sauce, and spicy pickles on a potato brioche bun — the same caliber of ingredient sourcing that earned Bachelier's other Encinitas kitchen, Atelier Manna, a Michelin Bib Gourmand designation. Three heat levels — 360, 720, and 900, named after skateboard rotations — scale the spice on every chicken order, while a blackened market-fish sandwich with yuzu tartar sauce and a tempura maitake mushroom sando cover the non-poultry menu. Beverage director Nick Sinutko, formerly of Campfire, runs a cocktail and sparkling-wine program in the 70-seat indoor-outdoor space designed as a tribute to 1980s and 1990s surf-and-skate culture, a visual identity rooted in the same Leucadia corridor that houses counter-service staples like Hamburger Hut. All chicken is cooked in seedless oil, and the duck-fat-tossed fries use a proprietary C&H spice blend developed specifically for the Leucadia kitchen.
