So I am back at Korean Crispy Chicken in Hell’s Kitchen. I love this place that serves great dishes, not just fried chicken and has this beer on tap that you pour yourself (at least you try, quickly understanding it is not that easy and all in the angle of the glass).
Their fried chicken is delicious: crispy thanks to the double frying process and moist, perfectly cooked all the way through and smothered in a nice sauce that you pick between soy and garlic or sweet and spicy (not so spicy) that I had, or the more classic and less Korean Buffalo (hot or mild).
If you are more into sandwiches and do not like the stickiness of the wings (they should at least give a wet towel), you can get their KCC burger that is made with fried chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, onion and aioli. There again, you get the crispness of the chicken that is superb.
But if you do not like chicken, there are other options, like the kimchi pancake that is quite comforting and not spicy at all, or more surprisingly the beef bulgogi empanadas that were little pockets of heaven: the marinated beef was very flavorful and the shell slightly crispy and deliciously flakey.
So overall, if you are looking for fried chicken few steps from Times Square, Korean Crispy Chicken is a great place. I would go back again for sure!
Enjoy (I did)!
