I should preface this by addressing the fact that this eating experience has nothing to do with Chinatown. This restaurant was on Chambers street. It’s Korean owned and the woman working the register was black.
BUT… We must get the ball rolling around here and at the chinatown food blog we, first and foremost like food. So, I (Lychee) am going a little pan asian this week, exploring what none of us has ever tried… Korean Fried Chicken.
Like most laymen I stumbled upon a NY Times article that talked about the fried chicken fad in Korea and how a few chains have set up shop in the states. Having grown up eating fried chicken both homemade and as fast food, I felt I should investigate this chicken that claims to to be non greasy. I won’t discuss specifics of how this is supposedly done, since I don’t really know. What I do know is the eating experience.
