I'm so disappointed. I've been to Flock on Harbord Street and the pulled sandwich was amazing--crispy bun, pretty plating and complimenting merged flavours and textures. This Flock on Adelaide was the exact opposite of what I had the first time.
I decided to get the same chicken sandwich here and I'm surprised this is a takeout place and not a sit-down. It was given in a takeout box, so I didn't expect a wonderful presentation. But I can't express how the sandwich had failed my standards; the bun was so stale!
The bun wasn't even toasted, so it was neither warm nor crispy at all. Secondly, the bun itself was stale! It was tough to rip apart and it looks like those Chinese bakery buns that have been sitting out for a week. I just threw away and ate the filling.
The filling was okay. There weren't a lot of crispy onions or avocado and the chicken was like room temperature. It just seems like the sandwich has been sitting there for a while and they just wrapped it up for you.
I can't get over the stale bun and it really ruined my fond memories of this sandwich. I don't think I'm coming back for another chance.
