A Crispy Arnold’s Fried Chicken Sandwich Debuts as M.L.Rose December ‘Burger of the Month’

M.L.Rose is debuting its December “burger of the month” at all three locations, and this time it’s not a burger at all. Rather, it’s a mash-up of two Nashville staples: a fried chicken sandwich collaboration between Austin Ray’s neighborhood burger joint and Kahlil Arnold of meat-and-three mainstay Arnold’s Country Kitchen

The Arnold’s Fried Chicken sandwich is a crispy, fried chicken breast coated in Arnold’s proprietary seasoned breading, topped with red cabbage jalapeño slaw, barbecue mayo, and pickles — all atop an M.L.Rose signature sweet potato bun. Served with waffle fries, the sandwich is $11.29, and available throughout December at all three M.L.Rose locations.

Of all of the devastation the one-two hits of tornado and pandemic have wreaked on the Nashville restaurant scene, a few positive things have emerged: one of those being a few epic collaborations between notable Nashville chefs and restaurants.
