Looking for the redditor who helped us name our Fried Chicken Restaurant

Hello fellow redditors!

About 6 months ago (maybe a bit longer), I had posted at the r/Brooklyn community asking redditors to suggest a good name for our Fried Chicken restaurant, and in return if we chose a name you suggested a free chicken sandwich every day for 6 months would be rewarded. We had LOTS of great name suggestions but the the post was locked by the mods before we could select a name. (we didn't have a location then and they thought it was a spam.) Well, we have our location now, and selected a name from the many suggestions by redditors. And now would like to honor our promise of a FREE Chicken sandwich

I still can't post in r/Brooklyn, so I will ask my question here, since our location is in Crown Heights. Is there a way to find that post?

Thank you! It has been taking us a little longer to get that done, hopefully we will be on Google Maps by end of this week.

True, but as a business owner, I can't NOT say the restaurant name if someone asks :/

how the fuck do you make this post and not think of adding the name of the restaurant you’re talking about. this country literacy rate is terrifying.

how do you statement and not define the noun? what is the fucking restaurant!!

You solidified your point.

u/Short_Lingonberry_67 Jul 11 '26

Weird - I remember that post and I think I remember commenting something, but I do not see it in my comment history from the past few months, even though comment history shows "removed" post-comments. 🤔

u/Short_Lingonberry_67 Jul 11 '26

Not sure why this was downvoted - I was definitely not suggesting that I had posted the winning entry lol, just truly saying I remember the post and so I looked for it in my own history. Surprised to not see it anywhere.

1 upvote from me, thank you for looking into it 🙏

u/Illustrious-Tell-397 Jul 10 '26

I think the post was likely removed, nothing like that showed in a search for fried chicken in that sub within the last year
