The versatile CHICKEN ruled the roost thats week, as the featured Spotlight Ingredient in that weekend’s Depot Cafe specials. Tender juicy chicken breasts flame broiled to flavorful perfection and pulled chicken broth made from our own stock are the rock stars of our menu lineup this Saturday and Sunday (Oct. 2 and 3). You’ll also want to take advantage of these last chances at straight-off-the-local-farm fresh seasonal produce we’re infusing in to these great recipes.

Menu:

1.) Flame-Broiled Sizzlin’ Chicken Breast Sandwich – flame broiled and buttery herb basted chicken breast is sliced onto a warmed French roll with our famous garlic herbed mayo with thick cut local tomatoes and leafy lettuce!  Served with a big scoop of house made potato salad and a hunk of local watermelon.

2.) The Depot Barby Chicken Dip! flame broiled sliced chicken breast strips slathered in our own barbecue sauce on a big grilled French roll with mayo and sweet onions!  Served up with a side of barby sauce for dipping alongside fresh house made tater salad and a hunk of local watermelon.

5.) FROM THE SOUP POT: Frank’s Mom’s “Which Came First the Chicken or the Egg Noodle” Soup ~ at the first signs of cooler weather, she got the soup pot out.  Brimming with celery, carrots, onions, herbs and of course a little local garlic… all went into the heart warming brothy pulled chicken soup.  And you can’t have a bowl without plenty of fancy egg noodles!
