BRIEF: “Evenly marinated chicken that is nicely crisp on the outside and abolutely tender on the inside.” SOOT’S TAKE: Must have with the restaurant’s proprietary chili sauce (an incidental finding and I think it’s proprietary because I’ve never had anything like it) which you have to ask for separately and which I would call Magic Sauce if I could.

BRIEF: “Crispy chicken wings hand battered and breaded, then tossed in your wing flavor choice.” SOOT’S TAKE: Got half in original and the other half in spicy with a tiny packet of Mardi Gras Mustard. Excellent but ridiculously overpriced.

Krispy, krunchy, skrumptious! 😋

A most satisfying meal and at a reasonable price ($6.50) compared to everything else on offer today. The sambal was excellent as were the crispy crunchies that accompanied the tender chicken thigh. My only issue with it were the random lumps of gelatinized schmaltz (really not a fan of the mouthfeel). Still, I’m glad I picked this over $10.50 century egg congee.

Crispy boneless fried chicken chunks, potato wedges and rice cakes tossed with honey butter sauce and seasoning. Incidentally, also my first time at Chir Chir and this was a nice intro to the restaurant‘s chicken dishes. It also reminded me of honey butter chips @furflebear introduced me to a few years ago.

First time trying this. It was essentially fried chicken but infused with a unique blend of spicy flavors. I’d never had anything like it before, although I detected turmeric. It came with a really tasty, tangy sauce that reminded me of BBQ sauce, yet it also tasted a little like tamarind. But ultimately I couldn’t put my finger on what else wouldn’t gone into it. The waiter couldn’t either despite asking the chef on our behalf.

Hot off the wok, crispy, crunchy, tasty...

CRUNCH! This would make a great late night snack along with a cold 🍺

8-piece dark

Hadn’t had this in AGES, so it was great to have it as my first meal in 9 hours and find that it was still good like it was when I was a broke student.

My first time trying their spicy chicken which is just the regular with a spicy powder sprinkled on. I’d stick with regular in the future although the quality of their crumblies has deteriorated somewhat.

My father swears by Australia’s (or Sydney’s?) KFC, claiming they just don’t make em’ the same way [he had (and helped prepare) them during his uni days] anywhere else he’s had KFC. I wasn’t sure I tasted the difference (not that I eat KFC often enough to appreciate) but he was convinced this 6-piece box was on another level.

BRIEF: “Our Signature Smashed Fried Chicken Thigh with fragrant steamed rice! Served with our Famous Signature Sambal Belachan Chilli, Crunchy bits, Fried Tofu, Curry Gravy and Fresh Vegetables. Yummy!” SOOT’S TAKE: I didn’t want curry gravy over my rice at first but the guy persuaded me to try it and it was actually pretty good. The chicken was good too (and ginormous) but everything else was just ok, including the otak otak I added to my order.

“Cumi Bali's very own fried chicken.” They pride themselves on not using flour to batter their chicken and hence on not producing overly greasy fried chicken.

With a hot buttery biscuit, their mashed potatoes and a root beer. As far as I can taste in this combo, their biscuit is the best thing they’ve got going for them.

AKA Har Cheong Gai. They look like a cross between tandoori and fried chicken but taste mildly of shrimp paste.

Fried chix.

Fried chicken breast with mashed potato. First time trying Jollibee.

Got it in ORIGINAL with a HONEY-BUTTER BISCUIT™ on the side. Tenders were decent and the biscuit felt like a mini warm hug from foodland.

AKA Har Cheong Gai. This was decent but it lacked the bite normally encountered in the prawn paste used to prepare the dish.

I’d never had it and I was curious, so these happened.

They’re the result of a 12-hour marinade, pretty good but not much to write home about. It sounds like they’re meant to be nostalgic? 1970’s nostalgic...

Crispy but super greasy.

Signature smashed fried chicken. Got the breast which was a tad dry.

This would make a good bar snack.

Grab Food delivery from Lim Fried Chicken. It was a tad salty. Technically, KFC was her fav but they don’t deliver here.
