The main issue with me has always been the size; for some reason, I think Kyochon’s chicken wings are extremely small – like they get them from kampung chickens or something. 12 pcs here equates to an 8 pc set from 4Fingers (my favourite KFC by the way). Pricewise, Kyochon is also higher than some other KFC franchises, and of course, 45 minutes is too long a wait for a resto that wasn’t full.
Taste wise; it made us to finish almost the tiniest flesh that was on the bone. That described of how well seasoned/sauced of each chicken. Unfortunately, we only managed to try soy garlic series. We definitely will return for other series and larger portion.
½ Chicken original is a perfect choice for those who cannot handle the spice. My sister loved it while myself and my bf loved the red pepper. ½ Original with small meal upgrade @ RM 36.50
Battered shrimps and crispy calamaris are another favourite of ours. Not oily, deep fried to golden brown batter jacketing bouncy squid and prawns. Choose to have soy garlic or spicy hot coating.
4Fingers Crispy Chicken is a Singaporean chain of fast casual restaurants that specializes in crispy Korean style fried chicken. Headquartered in Singapore, the chain was founded in 2009 and currently has 13 stores in Singapore and Malaysia.
What can I say? Finger lickin’ good. Despite being fried, the chicken wasn’t greasy and you can really hear the crunch as you bite into each piece. The soy garlic sauce was excellent – sweet and salty, garlicky goodness. Polished off six pieces with no trouble. Had the rest to take home. 😀 Definitely someplace I’d come back to if I’m ever in Sunway Pyramid! 🙂
Best Seller Honey Wingnette and Drummette RM22.00 is the best seller (non-spicy and easily acceptable by any age) in KyoChon. The overall fried chicken which consists of wings was crunchy and well spiced with a dulcet of honey coating, while the crust tastes do resemble one of our daily local snacks “Fried Banana (Pisang Goreng)”.
Disebabkan kami mostly memang suka pedas, so memang kami amik ayam pedas full bucket dan rasanya memang pedas berapi nasib baiklah ada ayam honey tu do dapatlah kurang pedas sikit. Ayam honey tu tak manis pon just sedap manis berlemak. Kyochon ni daripada Korea dan signature nya adalah ayam, tapi kalau nak side dishes contoh nasi pon ada. Tapi nasi macam pricey sikit starting harga untuk nasi RM3.90. So better ratah ayam saja pon dah kenyang.
However, the experience was a disappointment. I wouldn’t say the food is bad, just that the taste does not suit me. Although the fried chicken was huge and crispy, it was one-dimensional tasting – salty and I can think of plenty of other places that churn out better fried chicken.
I got my food in less than 3- 5 minutes after I placed my order. That was a pleasant surprise though a warning bell sounded in my head. Thankfully the chicken was hot though I have a strong hunch it was refried quickly to heat it up. Still, it tasted good – the skin was crispy and the flesh juicy. It was a bit salty (only the skin) but do keep in mind that I have low tolerance for salty food so in this aspect I’m speaking for myself.
Verdict? I’m thrilled to say that it did not disappoint! The flavour is almost exactly the same as Jollibee in the Philippines. Skin was deep fried to golden, crunchy perfection, meat was tender, juicy, and flavourful, and the chicken pieces were large but cooked thoroughly. There is a slight difference in spiciness level: I believe the spicy chicken here is much spicier than the Filipino version, which I think caters more to Malaysian taste buds. Gravy also tasted more peppery compared to Philippine Jollibee. But it’s not a downside (to me at least).
After how many years of not being able to go back to our home country The Philippines. We cannot explain how much excited we are hearing the news regarding this. After how many months of waiting and craving we finally able to eat our favorite food from our favorite fast food chain. Our cravings were definitely satisfied!
And now on to the chicken. Whoa! I loved it! No wonder my brother was raving about this honey fried chicken.
Jjajang Myeon @ RM17.90 Whenever I explore a new restaurant, I always go for something that I have not tried before and this Jjajang Myeon (Sweet Korean black bean sauce noodle) is definitely on my list. They look pretty ordinary but little did I expect that they actually taste so good! Just mix the noodle well with the sauce and enjoy slurping it down the throat. The sweet and savoury flavours complement each other well and keep me craving for more!
For the signature fried chicken, you may choose either drumsticks or wings (with drummets), while for the flavour, you can pick up to two type of flavours namely Soy Garlic, Yangnyeom or Monster, depending on your preferred level of spiciness. Perfectly tender and juicy, the drumsticks were absolutely flavourful and lip-smackingly good. Not for the faint-hearted, the extra hot Monster sauce was so spicy that it's brought tears to our eyes, even for spicy food lovers like me. On the other hand, the regular spicy Yangnyeom with just the right amount of heat was perfect!
Overall I love their crispy, tender and juicy fried chicken be it any sauce it taste to good and addictive. Dining here makes me feel so hip and trendy because of the restaurant ambience, design and the k-pop music. In terms of price wise, I would say it is reasonable and comes in decent portion. If you are going with a group of friends or family be sure to order their Big Bang Set. Yes! I will go back for more monster sauce Jinjja Chicken Wings hehehhe.
I chose the original flavour for both 4 pieces of chicken and 5 pieces of chicken tender. I took one piece of chicken thigh on bone and 2 pieces of chicken tender and gave the rest to my friend who agreed to share them with me.
All in, we think there are better options if you’re craving good fried chicken.
What do We Like about bhc Chicken, One Utama? -Crispy and juicy fried chicken -Pleasant dining environment
The 2 piece original chicken lunch set which includes a pack of fries and a drink costs MYR 13.20 nett. I asked for hot tea instead of soft drinks, kept the chicken thigh for another day and ate the drumstick with fries. Since the promo deal of MYR 15 nett for 5 chicken tenders and 10 nuggets will end on Aug 26, I bought them as takeaways which lasted a few meals.
The only nice thing on the plate was, thankfully, the fried chicken. Crispy skinned, big and meaty.
This chicken burger, magnificent looking as it is, did not resonate positively for me. But don't take my word for it, ok? You have to try it for yourself to decide.
Then comes the second level of heat – the sauces. For this, we went with the most popular options – Whistlin Woman and Going Bananas. I loved Going Bananas because it was sweet-ish with an underlying taste of spicyness . It does wonders when your mouth is on fire. It helps tone down the heat in your mouth. Whistlin Woman is not for me, lol. I simply could not cope with it.
We had the chicken set where you can choose from with 3 flavours which are the Classic Soy, Spicy Eung or Half Half. Grab your wings choices from 6 pcs ( RM 15.50), 8 pcs (RM 19), 12 pcs (RM 28) , 20 pcs ( RM 46) and 40 pcs (RM 90) . The chickens are well marinated with their herbs and sauces and then deep fried till perfection. The spicy one had won our hearts and it is bursting with the kick of spiciness and numb our mouth too. It is just so addictive but prepared to order more drinks (as the taste come super spicy!). If you cant take spicy, go for the classic soy.
For a savory touch, I had Half a Crunchy Fried Chicken (RM27.00) to share, though I bet I can finish this all on my own, it had a fantastic crunch to it. The tender pieces of chicken came sprinkled and marinated with herbs and spices.
有飯有雞肉有菜,最低消費才 RM 10.50 起。份量超大,用的食材高品質,真的是平靚正!
With over a million followers on Facebook, Wingstop- the popular fried chicken brand is finally here in Malaysia. This fast growing chicken restaurant brand is now open at the Curve, Mutiara damansara and is said to be opening more outlets in different locations in Malaysia over the next 6 years. The thing about fast casual restaurants is that diners are enjoying fast food in an ambience a lot more comfortable with food served to your dining table. With all this reputation, it is inevitable to admit there’s something about it that is alluring and at the same time attractive. And that, we are talking about signature American flavours like the buffalo wings and sticky BBQ wings as well as some of those Louisiana flavours etc, being served and made upon orders. Here, the personal meal is served with your choice of side; and each serving offers two flavours in a plate.
