Our arteries are quivering already.

Chicken Charlie's, the county-fair stand famous for its deep-fried wonders--s'mores, PB&J, Oreos, cheesecake, frogs' legs, cheeseburgers and Girl Scout cookies, to name a mouthful--may become a brick-and-mortar restaurant. At last! No more battling fairground parking and paying admission for your favorite batter-smothered snack.

Foodbeast reports that owner Charlie Boghosian is shopping for a retail space in either OC or San Diego. (It also reports that he plans to launch a home fryer for the masses--imagine being able make deep-fried Twinkies in your own kitchen!)

Until then, find Chicken Charlie's concoctions at the OC Fair until Aug. 14.
