This was a new concept that started this year. I couldn't quite figure who Food News and Chews is…read morethough. The only promotion or talk that I heard about this week long event, was on the radio. But whoever Food News and Chews is, thank you! This is Kentucky, so it does make complete sense to highlight one of our culinary staples. Highlight is exactly what most the restaurants did. They used the opportunity to highlight their businesses and culinary abilities. There was only one version that I didn't particularly care for, but even that version seemed to be more than an average $5 sandwich. Most of the versions were battered and huge. My favorite version was the one from Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken. I loved that they used their everyday chicken tenders. If you hadn't tried their spices and tenders before, this event gave you the chance. Second to their famous chicken, the mac and cheese is their next best thing. Guess what? They combined that mac and cheese with a ranch sauce and included it in the chicken sandwich. I'm hoping that I can get this chicken sandwich the next time that I go to Gus's too.

Food-based ________ week in Lexington seems to have a new addition each year (burger, pizza, taco…read moreare already established, but chicken sandwich week was new), and I like it! It's an effective way to entice me to try out restaurants I haven't been to and to try a (sometimes) creative spin on a fairly straightforward item. This one wasn't run by the same group that runs all of the others, and it had fewer restaurants participate and far less advertising/publicity. Largely because of these two things, there weren't many that interested me enough to warrant a visit and I didn't even realize it was happening until the week was almost halfway over. I did go to one restaurant that I definitely wouldn't have gone to otherwise though, and really enjoyed the chicken sandwich there. I'd love to see it return with better restaurant participation next year!

She's not in the photo, obviously. She took it. Said she liked the lighting and wanted to "capture the moment." I didn't even realize she was snapping it until I saw the picture later me mid-bite, eyes wide, caught completely off guard. Thanks, Yuri. Sayori dove into her burger like it was a love poem in sandwich form. Natsuki ordered the biggest sandwich on the menu and immediately started dissecting it like she was judging a baking contest. I had a classic chicken sandwich and a drink simple, nostalgic, and surprisingly grounding. On the tray, we had one piece of fried chicken we all agreed to share. Sayori named it "Sir Crispington." He didn't last long. Yuri, quietly off to the side, had a small box of popcorn chicken and a biscuit with honey. She didn't say much, just smiled softly and listened while we talked about everything and nothing. She sipped her sweet tea slowly, like she was savoring the quiet between our laughter. I think she liked it more than she let on. The restaurant was relatively clean, the service was fast just good food, good friends, and one very sneaky photographer. Would I come back? Definitely. But next time, I'm watching Yuri more closely. She's got a talent for catching people in their most honest moments.

But they cut major corners and I guess no one realized. Salad. It is all lettuce. No leafy greens at all. Lettuce is the cheapest out of all the greens because it has nutritional value of a piece of paper. And the chicken salad is the same price as other restaurants that have better Ingredients. $15. Catfish. Pretty sure it is not catfish and it is swai. Which is like $1/lb that restaurants trying to cheat off. The fish batter has good seasoning and good crunch from the cornmeal but it is not catfish. The meat itself looks different, and bland. $17 for that with 2 sides. Hush puppies are weird.
