HOT Korean Crispy Chicken Sandwich
For a menu that features a smorgasbord of classic local and American favorites, with something to delight everybody in your ohana or circle of pals, head to Big City Diner.
A trio of $15.99 Weekday Specials, offered from Feb. 24 to 28, perfectly illustrates Big City’s versatility and knowledge of local flavors. Specials are served Monday-Friday from 11 a.m. “‘til we’re out,” chuckles owner Lane Muraoka. Each comes with your choice of a cup of homemade soup or small green salad, for a perfectly proportioned meal.
Grilled Kalbi Pork Bahn Mi Sandwich
Just the description of the Grilled Kalbi Pork Bahn Mi Sandwich is enough to make one’s mouth water. It’s accompanied by scrumptious skin-on fries. The Thai Shrimp Lettuce Wraps come with delicious spicy peanut sauce for dipping, and fresh mint and cilantro for authentic flavor. The irresistible Crispy Italian Sausage Ravioli is topped with marinara sauce and shredded Parmesan, and served with roast garlic bread. If you need something to keep you warm, look for the HOT Korean Crispy Chicken Sandwich, a weekly special that will be featured between March 9 and 13. Piquant with honey-sriracha sauce, this special comes with kim chee coleslaw and those rustic skin-on fries.
