Chiquen (Wood Green)

• I wanted a grab a quick and cheap meal after the movie and was contemplating between this and tinsel town in Wood Green mall
• I ordered chicken wings for staters with Mozambique sauce (hot sauce) with chicken pita wrap(old Delhi sauce) and fire fries as mains
• Overall I must say the place is value for money and service is good and prompt and if they can keep up the standards then they can surely give Nandos some good competition
• 10.40 for 3 items which is reasonable
• As the name suggests is a restaurant that specialises in chicken dishes
• Taking inspiration from fowls that are served by street vendors
• Their aim is to accentuate the flavour of their poultry by marrying it with their special sauces and marinades
• Misspelled signages and posters further enhancing the relaxed and laid back atmosphere associated with the tropics
• If the pita bread was freshly baked and fresh herbs and spices were used
• The winglets were essentially a canvas
• As the sauce lacked any spice and was too mild in flavour
• With the chilli heat making my palate bubble and boil with addictive edacious pleasure
• The taste for some unknown reason was bland and lacking Malaysian influence in piquancy
• Caesar Salad with Chicken&rdquo
• The fillets we presume are intentionally without any flavour so to be a blank canvas for dipping into their signature sauces
• Described earlier were cooked in the same marinade as these Fire Grilled Wings
• The breast portion of the chicken was unfortunately dry
• We are once again assuming that the intention is to make this burger your own by adding their signature sauces
• Because all that was required to save this burger was to ensure the chicken breast was moist
• The chicken strips were glazed with sensually sweet marinade and the strips were moist and tender
• The juicy crunchy fresh lettuce combined with the Caesar dressing was tantalisingly delicious
• The flavours were not prominent
• Chocolate Fudge Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream&rdquo
• The food on offer is not revolutionary but more &ldquo
• Our understanding is that Chiquen&rsquo
• S intention is for the dishes to act as a blank canvas to try the signature sauces and find your favourite
• Food was nice but the portions were terrible however the hospitality was great
• I Had a great experience at chiquen with few of my friends
• I felt the chicken was very juicy and tender
• The ambiance was perfectly lit with small bulbs on the ceiling and slow music
• The service was smooth and management team was working actively
• Also the side drink was good enough to get the weekend going
