Massive congratulations to Chef Mike Schank and the team at Toast on the Green — first-time entrant from Newmarket, Auckland! Their award-winning creation, The McChickle & Bacon — a toastie oozing with shredded chicken, crispy bacon, burger sauce, American cheddar, McClure’s Bread & Butter Pickles and pickle pesto on Daily Bread sourdough. Their toastie captured the hearts (and taste buds) of both judges and customers throughout the competition.

“Wow, pow, wham! Toast on the Green has produced a toastie that delivers a knockout punch of flavour and deliciousness,” says head judge, Kerry Tyack. “There is heaps going on here but the creators have nailed it. The not-too-sweet burger sauce, the right cheese and of course the lashings of McClures pickles is a polyamorous marriage of fun flavours. Multiple tastings of this toastie proved its consistency and there’s a load of generosity in this toastie as well. It’s an easy eat and great on the wallet.” 

Toast on the Green is open everyday except Sunday and the McChickle & Bacon will be on the menu til the end of time.
