Today was international burger day. In other words, time to eat another chicken sandwich.
The Bald Faced Stag is on Parramatta Road in Leichhardt. It’s a short walk from Annandale Hotel for people that find Annandale Hotel a bit too snooty or when it’s laundry day and only pyjamas are left.
It was only noon but already the betting lounge was buzzing when I arrived with my date. We sat near a fire hydrant and a chip vending machine. The chip machine was a nice touch but the fire hydrant came off a little bit too hipster. Sometimes it’s important not to try too hard. I’m on a date at The Bald Face Stag.
The bistro at The Bald Faced Stag was a popup by Chicken and Sons. There were burgers and chicken sandwiches on the menu.
My date was at the fire hydrant and I went quickly to order.
I ordered one “Chicken & Sons Signature Buttermilk Fried Chicken”, one “The ‘Colonel'” and a side of “Truffled Mac and Cheese.” I didn’t notice the menu mentioned “all burgers served with fries and sauce.” The mac and cheese was surplus to requirements.
I’ve eaten a few fried chicken sandwiches lately. This one was on the more OK side of OK.
I left a piece of lettuce that dropped on the table.
The food was OK.
