Is Starbird Chicken real?
If you search online for "Starbird Wings," you'll find an entire website dedicated to Starbird Chicken's wings. But you won't find a Starbird Wings brick-and-mortar location anywhere in America. This is because it's a "virtual brand" — a virtual off-shoot of the "real" restaurant, Starbird Chicken.
Where is Starbird from?

What oil does Starbird chicken use?
rice bran oilThe chicken is deep-fried in rice bran oil, which he says, “is more healthful than other cooking because it lowers cholesterol, is less oily and doesn't stick to the food.” Several Yelp readers were enthusiastic about dining at the Starbird in Sunnyvale, Calif.
What is a star bird?
The starbird, also known as a phoenix, was a legendary avian creature that was thought to be immortal. Allegedly, when it seemed to be dead, the starbird was actually renewing itself in the heart of a nova. Sabine Wren, a member of the Spectres, used a stylized starbird as her personal signature.
