Textbook’s Vegan Fried Chicken Sandwich
Fort Greene, Brooklyn

Textbook‘s vegan fried chicken sandwich got ushered to the top of my “to try” list when I put together a new Fried Chicken Showdown bracket.

Anticipation… the fonts help me know attention would be paid to details.

Made in haste, the $5 lemonade was not the best choice. It was very watered down and they had much better drinks.

I upgraded with their delicious shoestring “Tunisian” fries, seasoned with Za’atar. The sandwich was a vegan chick’n patty, topped with homemade slaw, pickle and a chipotle vegan mayo with a great spice level. Served on soft white artisan bread. It was pretty dreamy.

Beautiful-looking breading that was light and flaky.

Very impressed with this meal! I’ll have to check out their breakfast sandwich next.
