On June 17, 2018 I stopped here for a bite to eat in the early afternoon. I wasn't sure what to get, so I asked the waiter for a recommendation along with a flight of beer. He said the chef was trying out a spicy chicken sandwich made in a chili oil that wasn't on the menu and that it would likely be the only time I could try it due to the menu changing for the season, or some reason. Of course I had to order it, because how could you go wrong with a chicken sandwich?
I had no idea that this decision would change my life, and become the pinnacle of sandwich success and my comparing every other sandwich to.
Here I am, 18 months later, still telling people of the best sandwich I have ever had, constantly pulling up this picture I took of it and reliving the first moment I put it to my lips. The photo has been the background of my phone and reminds me of the happiest day my taste buds ever lived, and is currently the picture to bring me hope in June on my 2021 calendar. I cannot eat a single sandwich without comparing it to The One and then have it not live up to that day.

I have no idea if the sandwich ever made the menu, and haven't been back since I moved across the country, but I need to share this experience with you and the world, hoping that someone else might be able to head to this restaurant and experience the pure joy of tasting heaven itself.
Props to the chef that day, she changed my life.
