Quite glad that Jinjja Chicken's new branch at Clementi Mall held up well against the standards set by the Bugis branch when they first opened — went for the mixed option so I could opt for both Yangnyeom and Garlic Soy options. Being a fast food-esque concept, these were pretty satisfying; both sauces were thick and sticky, coating the chicken drumsticks well all over. The Yangnyeom comes with a mild tinge of spiciness while still carrying a sweet flavour, while the Garlic Soy was pretty savoury-sweet. Chicken pieces came with a crisp fried batter, while the meat came off relatively easy. One can opt for a set which comes with a soft drink (I would recommend going for their Shikhye aka Korean rice drink at another $0.60 extra on top of the $2 addon) and fried (sea salt/seaweed) for $2 more — the seaweed fries was decently seasoned with a bits of chili flakes and seaweed flakes for flavour. Honestly, it's not going to, and I don't think it would be fair to compare this against Korean fried chicken speciality restaurants such as Chir Chir and Oven & Fried Chicken, but this certainly takes the cake when compared to my experience at Four Fingers a while ago.
