They have announced to introduce the cultured chicken nuggets before the end of 2018.

It’s a bit long the video above, but one foodies really have to check out! Besides the fact that it’s a professional video it also shows the ambition of London born culinary expert Rory Macdonald. Since March 2017, Rory Macdonald has opened Flatiron shop Patisserie Chanson. It’s a higher-end pastry shop or as they say themselves, “a patisserie by day and a dessert bar by night”.
