The New York Fried Chicken restaurant from The Wire
This is the New York Fried Chicken restaurant that was featured in the first episode of The Wire.
It is situated at 1301 West Baltimore Street in Baltimore, Maryland.
In the series premiere, Wee-Bey Brice is giving D'Angelo "Dee" Barksdale a ride to the gang's headquarters at Orlando's club.
As they are driving east on West Baltimore Street, Dee attempts to talk about sensitive "business" information. However, Wee-Bey remains silent.

While they are standing outside the restaurant, he reminds Dee that they're not supposed to talk shop in the car.
