K Kitchen

A tiny takeaway spot neighboured by chicken shops, K Kitchen in Greenwich serves a relatively compact menu of broadly Korean and South East Asian dishes. The bibimbap is fine (although we suggest preparing your own egg at home to prevent it overcooking in transit), but it’s the Korean fried chicken that leaves the local competition in the dust. Boneless thigh fillets are cloaked with crispy batter, then glazed with a choice of four sauces. The plum and garlic has a perfect balance of pungency, sweetness, and lingering spiciness.
