Good Friend Chicken
A while ago, I leaked a little secret of mine to you guys in a blog post. What secret?! A deliciously juicy, fried secret to be precise. I wrote about this place as part of my Halal Cheap Eats in London post, but really, these guys deserve a whole post to themselves because they’re that good. Let me introduce you to Good Friend Chicken.
Good Friend Chicken is a Taiwanese fast food chicken shop located in Chinatown. Their specialty is fried chicken and bubble tea. The best part? The buffet of seasonings! You can opt how to flavour your fried chicken from an array of powders (up to 11!) from the simple curry to cheese and even seaweed too. I’ve returned to Good Friend Chicken numerous times and I’m yet to try a different flavour combination upon each visit.
Sweet Potato Wedges (woops, forgot the photo!)
Fried wedges of sweet potato that could have benefited from a little more time in the fryer to become crispy, but was more than made up for by the delicious plum powder I got it coated in (the plum powder is imperative by the way!).
The total bill depends on what and how much you order, but you can expect it to fall under a tenner easily! Good Friend Chicken are soon to be opening another branch in Camden, but until then you can make the journey to Chinatown. Beware, it gets extremely busy at lunch time!
