NeNe Chicken (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★☆☆☆

Jelloman has been trying to sell us her plan for a Korean meal for months and finally she got her wish this weekend. She got to pick her own place too, which turned out to be NeNe Chicken at Langham Place in Mongkok.

NeNe Chicken is pretty famous back in Korea. As one of the biggest fried chicken chain in the country, they earned themselves the nickname KFC (Korean fried chicken) thanks to their super crispy fried chicken.



Spicy and sweet / Soy sauce and garlic fried chicken - We got ourselves a platter with two distinctively different flavors, thus two very different results. The spicy and sweet flavor was pretty decent (seasoning spot on) but the soy sauce and garlic was quite disappointing.



Stir-fried rice cake with noodles in carbonara sauce - This dish would have been a lot better if there's a little more rice cakes than noodles but unfortunately that's not the case. The carbonara sauce was way too cheesy for me.



Kimchi fried rice with egg and cheese - Probably the only dish close to getting a passing grade from me. The kimchi fried rice itself was nice but I had trouble linking it to the egg custard and cheese. I mean the flavors and textures just didn't match (maybe the egg a little more runny?).
