Mon Poulet

Mon Poulet is perched on a hill in the backstreets of Croydon, but it’s the fanciest chicken shop we have come across. It has former Yering Station head chef Maxime Croiset in charge with French sides in the vein of terrine and patate chaude, and quarter chicken and chips. Where Mon Poulet excels is its hand-cut chips, which eschew chicken salt for good ol’ plain salt but don’t suffer for it – they have an unparalleled fluffiness and are fried for just the right amount of time.
