    What makes it different

    Most chicken sandwiches in town start in a fryer. Ours starts in a Filipino marinade and finishes over flame.

    Flame-grilled thigh

    Marinated inasal chicken thigh grilled over fire — never a breaded, fried patty.

    Atchara slaw

    Crisp, lightly pickled Filipino slaw that cuts through the richness.

    Garlic calamansi aioli

    Bright Filipino citrus and garlic in place of plain mayo.

    Toasted brioche

    A soft, buttery bun that holds up to a juicy grilled fillet.

    Fries included

    Every sandwich comes with a small fries at no extra charge.

    Grilled, not fried — and that is the point

    The sandwich starts as chicken inasal: thigh meat marinated in calamansi, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, and annatto, then grilled over open flame. That is what makes it juicier and smokier than the breaded sandwiches you already know.
