We've got a Hard–on Bonchon
I’ve always believed that gargantuan buckets of fried chicken might be a little excessive. But if you hand me a bucket brimming with Bonchon’s twice–fried Korean fried chicken wings, it probably wouldn’t be enough. Nestled on a side street in Chinatown, Bonchon, a franchised Korean fried chicken shop with locations all over the place, at first seems out of place. Its sleek and modern appearance stands out from half lit neon OPEN signs and pealing plaster walls. It feels like a cross between a discotheque and a sports bar, with bumping music, a backlit top shelf bar and an absurd amount of massive flat screen TVs, and by absurd I mean almost ten. The bar is at the center, and on a Thursday at 8:30 pm the restaurant was buzzing with a young after work crowd, fingers sticky with precious wing sauce and mouths stinging from its spicy punch.
