Brooklyn
Bowl is famous for its fried chicken – “without question the best, crispy,
crunchy, yummy fried chicken I’ve ever had in my life,” said Chef Michael
Psilakis on Food Network’s “Best Thing I Ever Ate.” From a recipe created by Brooklyn Bowl
partners Bruce and Eric Bromberg of acclaimed Blue Ribbon Restaurants for the
original Brooklyn Bowl in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Las Vegas tourists and locals
alike have been getting their fried chicken fix at the Las Vegas location of
the iconic venue since its opening last March. Now, the gluten-averse have
cause for celebration. The perfectly crispy, impossibly savory gluten-free
version of the mouthwatering recipe is now available exclusively at Brooklyn
Bowl Las Vegas.
Brooklyn
Bowl’s gluten-free fried chicken is prepared by Executive Chef Dermott Driscoll
with gluten-free matzo meal flown in directly from Israel. The restaurant has
contracted for 4,000 pounds of the special matzo, which is only produced three
times per year.
Combined
with Blue Ribbon’s proprietary spice blend, the matzo meal provides the optimal
texture to ensure the chicken is not only gluten-free, but also irresistibly
crunchy. Available as dinners, including a half-chicken (dark, mixed or white),
served with mashed potatoes, collard greens with bacon and honey; as well as
platters, which consist of 8 to 24 pieces of chicken (available in dark, mixed
or white), the gluten-free fried chicken will be offered at the same price as
the Bowl’s traditional fried chicken. Prices for dinners are $18 for dark, $20
for mixed and $22 for white; platters are priced at $24 to $59 for dark, $26 to
$64 for mixed and $30 to $72 for white.
In
addition to the new gluten-free fried chicken, the much-lauded menu elevates
comfort food and offers new twists on old favorites. Brooklyn Bowl signature
dishes include Egg Shooters with pickled peppers and olive oil mayo; a variety
of French Bread Pizzas, including The Theresa, with butternut squash, mushrooms
and roasted garlic; The Bowl Burger Deluxe with all of the fixin’s and fries;
Mac & Cheese with baked crumbs and, of course, its world-renowned original
Fried Chicken served with white bread and honey. New to the menu are also Chef
Driscoll’s Deep Fried Pickles with Blue Ribbon seasoning and chipotle ranch.
Brooklyn Bowl’s menu is complemented by a thirst-quenching roster of craft
beers and spirited house cocktails, such as the Drunken Palmer, combining
Seagram’s Sweet Tea Vodka and lemonade, and Rum Punch, a blend of Bacardi
Superior, Gosling’s Rum and juice.
Brooklyn
Bowl Las Vegas serves its full menu in the restaurant and at the lanes every
day starting at 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and noon on Saturday and Sunday,
when a brunch menu is also available.
