One evening, we didn’t have much going on, so Dann took me out to Chicos in Leyton. The week before, we went to Dave’s Hot Chicken with a friend of ours, where I was sure they had these Nashville mozzarella sticks that I have always wanted to try. In England, however, they do not have them on the menu. I had been craving them since, so Dann started looking up how to find them, and Chicos appeared! Chicos is a sort of Instagramable place to eat, with a lot of casual food like loaded fries, mozzarella sticks, and sandwiches. We went one evening right afterwards.
Nashville Hot Mozzarella Sticks and Buffalo Chicken Tenders
Of course, they had the Nashville Hot Mozzarella Sticks, which are massive rectangles of mozzarella, coated and deep-fried. Then, they put this spicy powder on it. It’s just such a spicy, delicious thing! The Nashville Hot Mozzarella came with a ranch, which felt very American, and tasted good too. I liked these a lot and it really fit my craving. I do feel they could have used more of the chili oil that they are meant to have on them, as they were dry, but it was fine. Whenever Dann and I see buffalo chicken on the menu, we have to try it. The buffalo chicken tenders at Chicos were very good. I am extremely picky with buffalo sauce and this buffalo sauce was so good we ordered a second plate of chicken tenders. It was just so good.
