  • LUNCH Menu

    • Joy Luck (Fried Chicken Sandwich) + Dripping Fries

      Hailing from the classic Chinese dish of duck pancakes, the Joy Luck is another sandwich inspired by our love for Chinese cuisine.Of coarse we don’t serve duck so it’s replaced by chicken in the form of a boneless fillet cut from the most tender part of the breast.Its fried till golden, topped with the classic Duck Pancake sauce of Hoisin (Ours deftly sweetened with blueberries!) then finished with spring onion and cucumber.

    • Buffalo Soldier (Fried Chicken Sandwich) + Dripping Fries

      The Buffalo Soldier is out take on the tried and tested match of Blue Cheese sauce and hot fried chicken.We start with a crispy fried boneless breast fillet doused in our hot sauce then stuff it between a bun smothered in blue cheeses dressing. An addition of kimchi adds another note of heat and another layer of crunch contrasting against the blue cheese dressing.

    • Chicken Katsu & Dripping Fries

      Anyone that’s eaten at Wagamama’s needs no introduction to this Japanese classic. Popular in Japanese households since its introduction while Japan was under colonial rule by the British Empire, Japanese curry is actually called “Kare”, not “Katsu”. The “Katsu” actually refers to the coating of panko typically found on fried items in Japan. But anyway, put the two together and you have Katsu Curry!Of course, at Chick n Sours the chicken is coated with our crisp flour coating, not breadcrumbs but it only makes it better.Our Katsu Curry is mildly spicy with just a touch of heat and its topped with a Japanese pickle of Daikon and carrot. The pickles have a touch of sweetness that cuts into the sauce perfectly and the touch of acidity works so well with the fried chicken.
      £9.00
    • Vietnamese Nacho Salad + Tenders

      Our love for Asian food and mashing things up a bit inspired us to create this slightly off-tap salad. For a base we have a classic combination of Vietnamese flavours combined to make a clean and fresh dish then things start to get interesting. Firstly we add avocado for a luscious creaminess then to go against the board completely with toss through a handful of corn chips which adds another textural element to the salad.It’s all tossed together with our Nuoc Cham dressing then finished with tasted peanuts, crisp shallot and dried shrimp floss. We can also offer this as a vegan option by removing the shrimp floss and replacing the Nuoc Cham with a vegan version which doesn’t contain fish sauce.

    • Szechuan Aubergine

      A big hitter on the Chick ‘n’ Sours menu, Szechuan aubergine has been voted as one of London’s top dishes. Diced aubergine is fried in a light crispy batter made from tapioca until slightly golden and crispy. It’s then doused with a rich sweet Szechuan style sauce flavoured with soy, sesame, chilli and Chinese black vinegar which gives it a mysterious malty flavour.
