You must not be from Va but yes, in Va everyone calls northern Va, Nova. Its almost as if its taught in elementary here.
guess its kinda like NoCal and SoCal
This was such a small thing that I loved about being in Seoul. My girlfriend and I were visiting for 10 days and we went to watch GSL (Starcraft 2). Before the event we looked up 2 places that were supposedly close that served fried chicken but both happened to be closed. The event ended around 10:30pm. During the event I found a place that delivered (forgot the name at the moment but it was one of their chains), literally anywhere. So we waited outside of the building and at like 11pm a guy rides up on a moped and drops our food off. It was great. Food was awesome.
The Korean fried Chicken places in Tokyo are great (Sin Okobu area)
That, Dak Galbi, Tteok-bokki are so good.

I'm from NOVA lol, I don't call it that cause not everyone online know it. I'm just surprise cause you said there are no good kfc in NOVA beside bonchon....
huh? I didnt say that
U crazy, that sauce is the best part
Maybe I misread. Saw you say you couldn't find a decent kfc within 30 miles in NOVA. Lol
My bad lol. It was another poster; sneerfulOwl. Guess that's what happen when you wake up from a nap. Since you responded to that post, I just thought you were the one I quoted.
I was stationed there for a year and had the opportunity to try so many dishes. Love all of their chicken dishes. Chicken on a stick is dope.
This is pretty cool though, I didn't expect the military to be the influence for their fried chicken but it makes sense.

What a fucking way to express your ass. I feel americans have long way from grasping their gluttony.
I bet we've all been in the same room at some point, I used to eat in Annandale and Cville often before this year, haha. Yes the chicken and other food rule aaaah
Haha most probably. Cause of this thread, I went toget Choong man chicken. So good. Like most Asians in the area, Korean food is a staple food lol.
Why must they defile a perfectly decent budae jjigae with cheese? :(Soldiers/the Korean War is also how Korea got Budae Jjigae, Which is basically 'Army Base Stew'.
One of the cooks/workers, would take all the meat products and threw them into korean stews...and so you got army base stew. Which is amazing.
ps. I don't really love Korean-style fried chicken. And yes, I've tried it lots, both in Korea and the U.S. Call me an outlier.
If it's any consolation, that looks like American cheese, which is probably mostly vegetable oil.
My childhood trauma of trying a cheese single in ramyeon is too strong to overcome, but thank you for trying.
I've never had Korean fried chicken and now I really want to.
Hopefully there's some good places around Tampa!

Yeah American Fried Chicken as its known is based on Scottish and African Culture. The Scottish developed the frying method used but like most Food from the British Isles there was a very noticeable lack of any kinds of seasonings etc. Then the Slaves brought with them their cooking culture with various spices etc. and the process was complete due to chicken being about the only animal Slaves were allowed to own.
I was hoping to go to SK for my spring break before covid hit. Fried chicken and beer was on the top of my list.
Theres a ton of Korean resturnats here in Japan but only a few in the bigger cities do the chicken and I have no idea why. It's like... THE THING, but those stupid cheese dogs and what not are what blew up. Japan skips the best stuff for no reason lol.

I used to love vindaloo, but it's not worth the aftermath anymore. And even then I'm pretty certain that's already toned down. We have quite a few good Indian places in my town, but Korean food is sadly not really a thing here. There's a place that is supposedly Korean/Japanese but they basically just do generic Chinese takeout plus bibimbap and sushi.
Cheese with Korean-food flavors is so popular, there's gotta be some appeal. I like cheese. I love most Korean food. I don't know why tasting most of those combinations made me nauseous and not want to eat for the rest of the day.
Choong Man is good, just don't get the smoked stuff as some locations use artificial smoke.
Makes sense to me. Cool shit. I've never had Korean fried chicken before. I'm not even sure why to find some.
I apologize for my reply. You were in no way deserving of my ire.
