Bennigan's Showcases Mini Sandwiches on New Core Menu.


Less is More with These Guest-Favorites

PLANO, Texas -- There's nothing mini about them. Today, Bennigan's Grill & Tavern rolled out a new core menu nationwide, featuring a section dedicated to its mini sandwiches.

The "Mini Bites" section features Burger Bites, Chicken Minis and new Buffalo Chicken Minis, made with crispy fried chicken Crispy fried chicken is one of the most standard dishes in the Cantonese cuisine of southern China. The chicken is fried in such a way that the skin is extremely crunchy, but the white meat is relatively soft.  tossed with buffalo sauce and served with lettuce and bleu cheese dressing Noun 1. bleu cheese dressing - creamy dressing containing crumbled blue cheese

Bennigan's first introduced mini sandwiches in May 2006 with Burger Bites, four mini burgers topped with melted American cheese and Bennigan's signature sauce. Guests quickly made the dish the second-most popular item on the menu. The strong reaction led to the creation of Chicken Minis, tiny sandwiches made from a whole chicken breast.

"This menu features slightly fewer items and concentrates on customer favorites," said Jennifer Gamble, director of marketing for Bennigan's. "We are also taking a cue from our guests by enhancing our mini sandwiches. Our Burger Bites started out strictly on the bar menu and were quickly added to our core menu."

New entrees on the menu include Irish Ale Queso, Stacked Chicken, Buffalo Chicken Minis, Black & Bleu Burger, Angus Melt, Guinness Grill Fish & Chips and Ultimate Buffalo Chicken Salad.
