Yum--Chicory
I'm back from Texas and that means I have no interest in cooking but a very healthy interest in eating something other than beef or veggies from a can. Somehow I missed the first wave of Chicory love, but after inhaling yet another fabulous, "home-cooked" meal from Chicory for two for about $10 a person, I must say that I am in love. Tonight, Dennis and I shared the chicken under a brick with sides of roasted cauliflower and brussel sprouts (these people know how to roast a veggie!), beets, and spaetzle with mushrooms. I should add that I had a fried chicken drumstick as an appetizer, and it's the best fried chicken I've tried in the neighborhood. Chicory is at 234 Degraw Street near Clinton, phone is (718) 797-2121. Why would you cook?

The sides are the best! (although you'll get a pitiful share of asparugus for $2.50--ouch.) The kimchi bun is pretty great too...
The spaetzle and mushrooms really hit the spot!
The fish tacos are great there. YUM
Pretty tasty for breakfast too, though the menu is fairly limited. You gotta try the "breakfast salad": a light but satisfying mix of diced tomatoes, cucumber, radish, feta, scrambled eggs, little cubes of fried potato and shredded salad. It's deceivingly delicious.
