Thanks to Amanda for sending the update at the old Bun DC space: “I saw the word “Pinsa” painted on the wall so I looked it up and sure enough they have a website already!

Yesterday we had the great pleasure of sharing a sighting inside the Columbia Heights Target. A few folks messaged me and we’ve learned that the chicken’s name is ‘Pollo’, (not Leslie.) A bit literal but happy to know it. Another reader sends the photo above from Taco Bell and admits being a bit weirded out but I’m definitely gonna add bonus points for this sighting because the chicken, I mean Pollo seems to be wearing a custom made fleece! Also bonus points for the leash.
Update! Now hearing the chicken’s name might actually be “Nugget.” Stay tuned.
