SANDWICH
COTE DU RHONE
LE BON CHOIX
11 GODWIN AVE.,
RIDGEWOOD
(201) 689-0400
Currently, my favorite
sandwich is Cote du
Rhone ($9), Bocuse
style (additional $3)
at Le Bon Choix in
Ridgewood. The
sandwich is made up of
tender rotisserie chicken
meat slathered with
homemade espresso
barbecue sauce, topped
with coleslaw and
Gruyere on a Balthazar
brioche. The Bocuse
addition: sunny side-up
egg and strips of crispy
chicken skin (instead
of non-halal bacon).
Brilliant — and divine.
