Linh here. I’m a huge Korean fried chicken fan. (Every Wednesday, you’ll find me at Basic Bird for their $1 wing deal.)
- So when I saw that the popular Bonchon chain was opening just outside Jordan Creek mall, I was hyped to try it.
What it is: The star is the Korean fried chicken, but there’s lots of other Korean entrees and street foods, like bao buns ($12.95), tteokbokki ($13.95) and bibimbap ($14.95+).
What I liked: The wings were nice and crispy (6 for $9), but oddly enough, the big standout for me was the fried zucchini side ($7).
- Milder than fried pickles, the crisp, thin breading plus the crunchy zucchini made these so craveable.
The big picture: Bonchon is a solid addition to the metro’s already delicious swath of Korean fried chicken restaurants.
