Chicken in the Kitchen

Seoul


Made famous on local television for using a fresh batch of oil for every fry, Chicken in the Kitchen has larger, juicier cuts of poultry than most fried chicken places in South Korea. Fans of heat particularly enjoy their hot chilli pepper chicken coated with sweet marinade and spices. Beer is served, but the colourful decor and low-key vibe keep it very family-friendly.
