North Canberra's best chicken sandwich???

ugh. sick of chipotle. The yanks here put it on everything. Yuck.

I’m amazed at Chicken Gourmet. In 1977, going down to my dorm-mate’s family home at Merimbula when boarding school let us out, we’d be unattended in civic (wow!) and buy us a chook at Chicken Gourmet and then guzzle it at the back of the greyhound or murrays or whatever the bus was.

And have stuffing fights. And the poor driver i guess had to clean it up but 12 year olds don’t care.

And as long as we’re making our own, smear a little chipotle in adobo over the bread (or stir it into the mayo) and add a few sprigs of coriander.

Tried it, but kept having to pick astroturf out of my teeth.

To add to the “make it yourself” crowd …

Bbq chook, Woolworths brand ‘complete crunchy salad’ and cheese and bacon rolls. Then head down to the lake with a bottle of champagne and some good company, and follw it with a coffee and some sticky date pudding at your favourite cafe.

Chicken Gourmet is one of the few late night places that still tastes good if your not pissed. Have you tried the pizza vendors sober?

Chicken Gourmet goes a pretty good chicken burger/roll, and its even better late at night after a few beers 🙂

best chicken sandwich = home made yourself as per the above making me hungry suggestions.

Even tho its microwaved – A kingsley chicken sub tastes good…. Chicken and gravy – great combo! Mmmmmm

But i still like the thought of going and buying a BBQ chook, some nice soft bread/rolls, cheese salad and drown it in Honey Mustard dressing..

(hmm im really hungry now… )

Certainly not the Blue Olive in Civic, their service was glacially slow (I stood and watched the staff chatting instead of dealing with orders for 10 minutes), the sandwich overpriced and very stingy with the fillings.
