The fried chicken shop brand will join vendors Jou Jou’s Bites, known for its Taiwanese rice bowls and bao buns, and Mexican eatery Masa Tacos at Corner Corner in London’s Canada Water when it opens on 4 April.
The new Chick N Sours will become the restaurant group’s third restaurant, joining its sites in Covent Garden and Haggerston, and its first new restaurant since 2019. At one point the group operated four sites but has subsequently closed sites in Islington and Spitalfields.
Corner Corner brings together food, live music, and sustainable farming. The food hall, curated by KERB, will initially open every Thursday to Saturday.
Sireli at Corner Corner, meanwhile, will be the venue’s all-day café and restaurant, which will be open seven days a week. After successful residencies at The National Theatre and Filly Brook, the Armenian small plates and flatbread concept will serve a more expansive lunch and dinner menu featuring dishes such as charred cauliflower with butternut squash, zhug and pangrattato; harissa lamb koftas; salt cod croquettes; and house-fired flatbreads.
The line-up has been selected so that it integrates fresh produce from Corner Corner’s indoor vertical farm, with vegetables on the all-day café menu, and a wide variety of pickled delicacies, careful garnishes, side salads and slaw appearing in the food hall.
“We’ve worked closely with Broadwick to deliver a brilliant food & drink experience at Corner Corner,” says Simon Mitchell, CEO of KERB.
“It showcases the diversity of London’s independent food scene - ranging from fantastic fried chicken to the phenomenal flavours of Taiwan, Mexico and Armenia. But unlike anywhere else, we’re giving our traders the opportunity to champion sustainability by sourcing ingredients from the in-house vertical farm.
“KERB at Corner Corner is an example of exceptional hospitality that makes an impact, which is what we’re all about”.
From 10 April, Corner Corner will also run a 12-week live music program curated by Broadwick.
