one of my workmates had been raving about this place for weeks, so i figured i'd give it a crack to see what the fuss was about. the selection is right up there with among the best korean fried chicken places in auckland and the fact that they have an option where you can pack your own dishes just adds to the experience.
the quality is right up there with the best too. i tried their popcorn chicken, spicy chicken & meatballs... the popcorn chicken puts the colonel's to shame and the spicy chicken... holy mary mother of fried chicken... it is quite simply out of this world. admittedly the meatballs didn't quite tick the box for me, but in all seriousness, who goes to a korean fried chicken place for meatballs. they perform where it counts which is in their chicken. to think you can grab a meal for under $10 too. crazy.
it's definitely worth mentioning the service too. like korean joints aren't exactly know for their friendly service, but the owner of ks chicken is certainly an exception. she was just a bundle of smiles and energy, helpfully pointing out what each dish is and what is the most popular - such anicechange from the unfriendly vibes you can get at other similar establishments.
it's not hard to see why this place is normally always busy and has such a good rep. i'll certainly be back to explore more of their menu (the bbq chicken is next on my hit list).
