We always love delicious Food & Wine item that we can skip the line for and easily grab with a mobile order. The fact that this one also happens to be a delightfully spicy Korean-inspired treat that's based on Connections' already amazing chicken sandwich means we'll be back for seconds before the festival wraps up in November.
👍 Korean BBQ Chicken Sandwich with pickled cucumbers on a brioche bun
This sweet and spicy sandwich is served with your choice of fries or Connections' new coleslaw, which has been greatly improved. It is now a sweet, Southern-style coleslaw with a mayonnaise base. The fries are the same as always - fresh, crispy and delicious, though we would recommend the slaw as it pairs nicely with the flavors of the sandwich.
If you've never had the chicken sandwich at Connections, you're in for a treat. It's always perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The closest comparison would be Chik-Fil-A, though we prefer this one. Added to the classic chicken breast is a Korean BBQ sauce that is spiced with red chili flakes and sweetened with honey. This sauce is moderately spicy, but not overpowering and it pairs beautifully with the generous amount of freshly pickled cucumbers you'll find under the chicken. These have lots of fresh flavor and taste more like cucumbers than pickles. Holding it all together is a soft brioche-style bun. This makes a perfect lunch or a quick dinner before fireworks at the end of the night - just make sure to place your mobile order early because Connections is a very popular spot around mealtimes.
