Nanas The Chicken Comes Before the Egg Price

Nanas offers a cleverly named and expertly crafted fried chicken sandwich called The Chicken Comes Before the Egg. This brunch entree features an organic chicken breast that has been marinated in a lightly spiced buttermilk, which tenderizes the meat and infuses it with flavor. The chicken is then dredged in a house-made flour and cornmeal dust before being golden fried to a perfect crispness. The sandwich is served on a brioche bun and crowned with tangy bread and butter pickle wedges, fresh bibb lettuce, and a house slaw, with a side of house-cut shoestring fries. The price for this dish is between $20.00 and $26.00.

This gourmet fried chicken sandwich can be compared to the popular chicken sandwiches from Beasley's Chicken + Honey in nearby Raleigh. Nanas The Chicken Comes Before the Egg reviews often highlight the juicy, flavorful chicken and the perfect crunch of the cornmeal crust. While Beasley's is known for its drizzle of sweet honey, Nana's sandwich offers a different flavor profile with its tangy pickles and creamy slaw. Diners can enhance their meal with sides like Applewood slab bacon or sweet potato fries and pair it with a beverage like an Iced Cappuccino or Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice.
