Best Chicken Sandwich Ever, The Doughnuts Are Good Too! - Astro Doughnuts and Fried Chicken, Falls Church Virginia

Every time we visit our nation's capital, we make sure we stop at least once at our favorite chicken sandwich place, Astro Doughnuts and Fried Chicken. What makes this chicken so special? The chicken is a juicy chicken breast piece placed on a savory doughnut.  You can choose either ranch ,bbq, siracha buffalo, siracha mayo, and honey mustard sauce. There is an add on menu where you can choose an egg, honey butter, kimichi slaw, bacon,pickles or sausage gravy for an additional cost.
After breakfast you can get an Old Bay doughnut chicken sandwich.
  We ate breakfast there three times on our recent trip and chose the chicken on a doughnut with ranch sauce. Next time we will try the egg and put some bacon on there too.
The doughnuts are good too.  They have their regular line up of pb&J,Creme Brulee, Maple Bacon and Vanilla Glaze. They augment tose with other tasty combos that change.  This time I tried a cherry blossom that was good.

A Sandwich That Brought Tears To My Eyes,(But Not For The Right Reason) Chaps Pit Beef, Baltimre,Md

Driving out of Washington DC to Baltimore on a Good Friday afternoon was a slow process.  It seemed like there was bumper to bumper traffic the whole way.  We were traveling to the Charm City to try out a food that they are known for.  Pit beef. We heard the place to get it was Chap's Pit Beef.
  We finally made it through the traffic and pulled into the parking lot that was shared with a strip club that advertised fully nude strippers. Class all the way!
 The place started out as a shack and is a little bigger now. It is still small inside, and there is a few tables and a large picnic table. You order your food at one window and pay, and pick it up at a window around the corner.
  The beef is bottom round, cooked over a pit,then itis sliced thin. You can order it to the doneness you prefer.  We got ours medium. I recommend putting onions and tiger sauce. Don't make the mistake we did and put horseradish on. It literally brought tears to my eyes and wrecked the sandwich in my opinion. The tiger sauce has mayo nd horseradish whichI hop is tamer.
 We got fries without sandwich, and while they were okay, the little nubs that they use for fries made them too much trouble to eat.  While the sandwich was o.k. to try once, I would definitely not make the trip to try it again.
  Chaps has other meats and sides on their menu. You can find them on the web at: http://chapspitbeef.com/menu/ .  They are located at 5801 Pulaski Hwy in Baltimore and also have another location in Aberdeen.  Just watch that horseradish!
