"When we think of the chipped potatoes from Syrian spot The Best Broasted, we find ourselves getting tangled up in all kinds of riddles and debates. What is a chip? When does a potato become one? Whatever the answer, one thing for sure is that the crispy chips at the Willesden Green restaurant are amazing. Get them with a whole broasted chicken like we do, or get them alone. Whatever you do, make sure to dip each one in a creamy pot of toum." - jake missing, sinead cranna
"“I made repeated order-and-collect visits to The Best Broasted during the November lockdown, and while I’ve tried quite a lot of their menu, it’s the whole chicken broasted that kept me coming back. There’s something about it that gets me all metaphysical. “If broasting is like frying,” I’d wonder, while waiting for this Syrian spot in Willesden Green to prep my order, “then why is the chicken not even remotely greasy?“. And, “how can it be so juicy, so crunchy, and so sweet?“. I’ve yet to come up with any satisfactory answers, which is all the more reason to continue my love affair with this excellent chicken in 2021.” - Oliver Feldman, Senior Editor" - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"There are plenty of reasons to go to The Best Broasted, but the signature chicken at this excellent Syrian spot in Willesden Green is the kind of thing you should happily travel across London to get your hands on. From the crunchy, sweet breading that clings to every succulent piece of meat, to the selection of pickles, the pot of creamy toum, and the chipped potatoes that come with it, it’s moving and memorable stuff. And the best thing is that you can get a single-person half-chicken order for £8, making it one of the best financial decisions you can make in London." - team infatuation
