About

These aren't Cool Chicken Sandwiches because they're cold. Oh no, these Cool Chicken Sandwiches are cool, man. They would definitely wear just the right sunglasses if that was a thing they could do. Maybe they don't even need the sunglasses; being made with buttery baguettes toasted in a garlic-mayo spread and filled with an extra savory and tangy chicken filling might just be enough. It's as speedy and easy as lunches go... and that might just be the coolest thing of all!
