Excitement naturally builds in a community when a new restaurant comes to town and to be one of the first people to try it is a great honour
One thing Sutton is not short of is restaurants and, on June 9, my parents and I tried Sutton’s newest addition: The Bun Club on Brighton Road.
After having tried The Encanto Kitchen, owned by one of the co-owners of The Bun Club, the bar had already been set high, as were our expectations.
Long story short: The Bun Club effortlessly channelled the charm and quality that made The Encanto Kitchen a standout.
We received a warm welcome from the co-owners Joe and Faisal, who joined forces to open up The Bun Club and were introduced to the gold and black interior.
We were taken to our, handed menus and given a few minutes to make our starter choices.
The extensive menu offers plenty of mouth-watering choices, and for our starters, and I enjoyed the club chicken tenders.
My starters were breadcrumbed chicken strips marinated in buttermilk, salt, pepper and smoky paprika, which were absolutely succulent, and it came with this chipotle sauce which was to die for.
Not just the chipotle sauce, though.
As a great sauce enthusiast, I was eager to try The Bun Club’s sauces and I was far from disappointed, from the tangy top-secret burger sauce to the smoky barbecue sauce.
My mum enjoyed the lemon and garlic wings which came with a cool garlic mayo and were cooked to the perfect temperature, which I ended up sneaking some off her plate and putting on mine.
On to our main courses where we, surprisingly, had burgers.
When reading the menu, you almost feel full just imagining what you’ll feel like after having your burger.
I ordered the 
: buttermilk and breaded fried chicken with cheese, coleslaw, pickles, streaky bacon, and buffalo sauce (not a clue what that is).
