Chicken Salad at Spencer’s Jolly Posh

Over the past few years, Nick Spencer has been showing up at places like Dose Market or the Logan Square Farmer’s Market, cooking up his homemade British-style bangers (sausage) and back bacon, and turning them into tasty sandwiches. But over the course of the last year, he’s opened a brick-and-mortar store along Irving Park Road, selling imported grocery items, those bangers and back bacon, as well as some mighty tasty scones. Now, he’s turning the space into more of a cafe, creating several sandwiches. One his most recent creations is the Coronation Chicken Salad, which obviously nods to the Queen, but also integrates his country’s penchant for zesty Indian flavors; in this case, cumin and mango chutney. Pull up a chair with a pot of English tea, and you’ll be transported back to Marylebone in no time. (Videography courtesy: Todd Rosenberg Photography – @toddrphoto)
