Daebak

Daebak is one of those excellent little spots where you’ll find locals popping in for a takeaway spicy pork and egg bibimbap, a group ordering fried udon, and a couple sharing three different flavours of Korean fried chicken, all on a Tuesday evening. Basically, it’s a great place to be. The menu has everything from chicken yakitori to beef bulgogi. And while that’s all good and well, the KFC is what you should set your sights on, specifically the pa dak. The crispy chicken is doused in a honey mustard sauce, and topped with a small mountain of thinly sliced spring onion. It’s crispy, sweet, salty, and has a slight kick from the onion. Basically it’s important that you spend some time here.
