Think I’d ever eat chicken again? Your “clucking“ joking, mate 🙅🏼♀️🐥 {gifted}
Did ya know that @coqfighteruk has got a vegan “chicken” burger on its menu… and it’s bloody good too. 🍔
Here’s what we thought:
🌱Fried soya “chicken” fillet with Umeboshi buffalo sauce, candied jalapeño mayo, house pickles, shredded lettuce
💰£9
💭 The “chicken” has a very realistic texture and is perfectly coated to give some crunch on the outside, and despite being soy based, it doesn’t have that strong soy, fake meat flavour. The sauce is absolutely beautiful with a little kick of heat. The bun is slightly sweet and complements the burger well. It’s not oily nor dry, there’s a crunch from the lettuce, a tang from the pickles and it worked with the mayo perfectly. The only thing I wanted was a slightly better patty to bun ratio. Still, an extremely good burger!
❓Order again? Yes
🏆Fave dish
🌱Smoked paprika & dashi fries
💰£3
💭Crispy, not oily and full of flavour
❓Order again? Yes
🌱Smashed cucumbers w/ chilli rice wine vinegar & sesame oil
💰£3.50
💭These had a strong, sharp vinegar flavour and a nice crunch. A good dish but just not the kind of thing I’d personally have with my burger
❓Order again? No
🌱Daikon salad w/ beansprouts, spring onion & Korean dressing
💰£3
💭 Proper tangy, spicy and a little sweet. Another good dish but again just not what I’d order with a burger
❓Order again? No
