Oct 2008 - Ok, this isn't really a restaurant. I just thought it was curious that a school system would regularly make shredded chicken sandwiches available to their students.

Oct 2013 - This is a very pricy sandwich. You can also get it with 2 sides for $8.59. We had it on toasted homemade bread, thus the high rating. Subtract one chicken if you get it on a standard bun.
Aug 2011 - Excellent sandwich on a seasme seed bun. Very generous portion. Also available as a special for $7.99 that includes two sides. Their shredded chicken sandwiches are not on the menu but are a very popular item. They usually have them but call ahead to make sure.
They are located in the food court of the Indian Mound Mall. Use entrance "C"" on the north side by the movie theaters.
Note: This is the re-incarnation of Miller's Essenplatz that used to be in Newark.
Open all year Mon-Sat 10am-9pm, closed Sunday.
