FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

When we are talking about fried chicken sandwiches, sauce is generally PART of the package. So the idea of downing it for "needing" is just weird.

I GET what you are trying to say but A Fried Chicken Sandwich is an odd thing to judge using the, "Does it NEED sauce" theory.

It's like saying "Honda Civics are fast.......if you add a turbo." If you got to add the turbo....Civics ain't fast.

But fast, tasty, etc. are all relative aren't they?

A Honda Civic can be considered fast; it would be fastER with a turbo.

Can't a sandwich be delicious sans sauce but be even more delicious with the addition of sauce?

Absolutely, but if a sandwich cannot be delicious without sauce, what is it?
 
Apple Egg Rolls?

I am envisioning what goes in a regular egg roll, what is in a pple egg roll. I hope it is more like apple turnover or apple pie?
I love waffle fries.

Yeah it's mainly pie filling I think. But it's filling they actually make opposed to filling in a store bought turnover. You can never go wrong with the caramel dip.

NO CHEEEEEEESE????
Yep no cheese. I’m really not a big fan of cheese except on certain items like pizza and nachos. On some burgers but not all. For example if I have to get McDs, I don’t mind cheese on the Big Mac but I hate it on the quarter pounder.

@PoweredbyMSG what sandwich spot???

Exactly. This whole discussion came from people saying Popeye's chicken sandwich NEEDED sauce. It can't touch CFA if it needs sauce.

Oh didn't know that's how this started.
I had the Popeyes sandwich and I don't think it NEEDS sauce, but the sauce certainly elevates it.

I was just thinking about this last night. How majority of people say Popeyes chicken sandwich is bomb but I feel it’s not and kinda bland. Is it because I asked for really light sauce and everyone thinks it’s good cuz it’s drenched in sauce?

I agree with @titang545 if it really needs a lot of condiments or sauce then it’s not a good meal. I’m not against sauce, I just think a little to taste it is enough because too much covers up all the other flavors.

I'm usually a sauceboi, but I had a burger from Hard Times Sundaes/Andrew's Roadside burger which refuses to add condiments/sauces and it was really good. Then again, the buns were buttered, the patties were super juicy, and the caramelized onions were almost at the consistency of a jam.

Sandwiches need some sort of wetness in most cases. Doesn't matter if it's from a sauce or another sandwich component.

they got good sandwiches
mac n cheese is decent too
havent ate there in a min though
 
needs mustard/ketchup
but looks good
If I were to put a sauce on this, it'd probably be something creamier that had some spice/horseradish. I like the ketchup/mustard on more "classic" burgers, but the caramelized onions work better with something rich and creamy.

I added pickles to that burger, if that matters.
 
$11.25 IS high though. That's a mix of the burger being marginally bigger than similar competitors and NYC pricing.

Would buy again, but wouldn't make a habit of it.
considering the size
and typ of burger
that is high
shouldnt be more than $7-$9
plus i KNOW that aint just american cheese??? :{
if u gonna charge 11 and some change
better give me white cheddar or SOMETHING
