#1 Kko Kko Na Ra

You know it's the real deal when Koreans in Singapore flock there for a taste of home! Specialising in KFC (that's Korean Fried Chicken 😂), Kko Kko Nara was founded by Ms Eon Lee, a Korean cook who spent six months perfecting her fried chicken recipe before opening the restaurant in 2008.

Nothing beats their original fried chicken flavour that's perfectly seasoned and greasy without being too oily! There are also three other delicious flavours of KFC - soy garlic sauce, sweet & spicy, and hot & spicy. Their menu is pretty extensive with hearty Korean dishes like soups, stews, pancakes, bulgogi, tteokbokki and bibimbap.

📍68 Tanjong Pagar Road, Singapore 088489

Whether you like your Korean-style chicken baked, roasted or fried, you can get your fill at Oven & Fried Chicken. For those who want a variety of dishes with their fried chicken, you can also enjoy other Korean dishes here like the Kimchi Pancake, Kimchi Stew and Assorted Fish Cake Soup.

As they say, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. While we're not in Korea, we can still get the same experience feasting on Korean fried chicken with beer! You can pick from a wide selection of imported bottled and draft beer here including Korean alcohol like Soju and Makgoelli.
