New Restaurant Kimchik Is a Korean Fast Food Hot Spot
Jul 06, 2025
Fried chicken is an infallible food. It holds our hands and satiates our deepest of hungers, anywhere and at any time. It opens our appetite when we don't want to eat and fills up when we feel like nothing could possibly heal our hunger. But, let's be honest, if you're eating the same tenders every other day, it can get boring. Well, you don't have to.
Fried chicken connoisseurs can have their pick from Nashville to Kentucky, but the best eaters know that there's nothing quite like Korean, and Kimchik, the newest Korean fried chicken spot on the town, is well aware of this.
Kimchik claim that hey make Korean fried chicken 'the loud way'. Unlike other shops, they make their wings and breasts in a variety of flavours; classic, sweet chili, teriyaki honey glaze, lime garlic coriander, and a spicy Yanghyeom. That wasn't enough flavour for them, either, because they also offer a wide range of dips, each complimenting a flavour of fried chicken, including sambal, mala mayo and big BBQ teriyaki.
Besides fried chicken, Kimchik also offers scrumptious appetisers like dak and peanut bao buns, colourful shrimp twister dumplings and a concoction called K-pop bites, which consists of chili pops and cream. They also serve out various rice and noodle dishes, for a more classic Asian food experience, like the fan-favourite sweet chili shrimp noodles. Still got room? Grab a box of Kimchik's sweet rounded Bukkumi on your way out for a fun dessert.
