Chewie's Biscuit Co - Vancouver

One benefit of the pandemic is that it's a great opportunity to explore all the popular brunch restaurants in the city without having to wait in line. I had never heard of Chewie's Biscuit Co before, but they are famous for their biscuit-style sandwiches and bennies. The restaurant is located just a few doors down from Linh Cafe.

I had been eager to try Chewie’s Biscuit Co. for a long time, so when I had a rare weekday afternoon off, I decided to make the trip to Kits for a late breakfast. Upon entering, you order at the counter in the back and they will bring your food out to you. I chose The Moose ($13), which is actually a fried chicken breast on one of their famous biscuits, smothered in sausage gravy, cheddar cheese, bacon, and a sunny-side up egg. The yolk was perfectly runny, adding a delicious touch to the dish. The bacon was crispy, the fried chicken was savory and had just the right amount of crispiness, and the sausage gravy was creamy and flavorful. The only thing that would have made it better would have been more gravy to dip with. A tip for future diners: it's a messy dish to eat by hand, so I ended up using a knife and fork. Overall, a serious winner!

I arrived at the restaurant just in time for brunch! There is metered parking available along the streets from 8:00 to 22:00. The seating is limited, so some customers grab their seats before ordering. To place your order, head to the cashier and choose from the extensive menu on the wall. They will then find you a seat and you can pay. The restaurant is small with a seating capacity of around 30 or less. Their best seller is the Moose dish. The biscuit was flaky and delicious, the egg was perfectly cooked, and the breaded chicken breast was juicy and flavorful, although a bit small in size. The bacon cheese was included in the dish, and the gravy had a lovely flavor that complemented the biscuit well. The Dirty Fries were tasty, with mayo and spicy sauce. The service was excellent, with friendly and efficient staff who were happy to help. I highly recommend this place!

Finally, to the delight of biscuit lovers in Vancouver, a wonderful biscuit sandwich has   arrived in Vancouver at Chewie 's Biscuit Co., called The Moose! Foolishly, I did not photograph this piece of art from all angles so you could see the wonderful sunny side up egg ready to burst in yolky goodness. A wonderful biscuit, not too dry just slightly sweet, a delicious fried chicken breast, bacon, cheese, slightly peppery gravy and the aforementioned egg represent all the really important food groups and could quite possibly bring peace to the world. I am in love.This is truly more than the sum of the parts but I would gladly live my life on the parts alone. That would have been enough but we had to try The Clucky also! This is a fried drumstick, installed in a sweet 'Bonut ' with gravy again for good measure. The sweet, salty and fatty work together magically. And in case we hadn 't ordered enough, these are some mighty fine onion rings! This was just a great meal (Marie and I shared it and had leftovers in case you though I had managed it all by myself). Chewie himself was present and happy to talk about his research including the places where I had made the pilgrimages that I had mentioned. He knows his stuff and will not rest on his laurels. Expect great things to come from Chewie 's Biscuit Co.!

I tried the tuna poke and it's deliciousI will definitely come back for more!___The portion size is acceptableThe rice has a nice texture.
