🤔: If only all fried chicken were this good.....
Marinated all the way through, but why was the chilli powder only on one side of the chicken....

It’s probably one of the closest fried chicken found here that doesn’t disappoint and reminds me of those in Taiwan. Humongous, generally larger than my hand, thick slab, easily bitten and torn off while retaining its juiciness. And as much as the bones of the cutlet cause inconvenience, they somehow contribute to authenticity.

We had the flavored ones; Hot chick made of chilli paprika powder hand-made from Anaheim peppers. It was a burst of saltiness initially, but the spiciness slowly crawls in and lingers on. People who have low levels of spicy tolerance, do be careful! The Taiker, on the other hand, was more like a Japanese flavor as it was dusted with Japanese sauce and seaweed powder imported from Okinawa. It was actually not bad as the seaweed powder exudes a marine flavor that cuts the plain meatiness, pairing with a slightly sweet Japanese sauce. However, it got a little mundane and I was glad to have it shared.

Honey was used to marinate the chicken meat, which made the meat tender and elevated the taste.
The Taiker, chicken was seasoned with seaweed powder. Each fillet is coated with flour, before being double-fried to give it it a crust-like crunch with less greasiness.

Been noticing a snaking queue at JEM basement for awhile now, finally had the chance to get this. It was well marinated and flavourful despite the huge portion, great protein serving for replenishment after a hard work out

Pretty good taste Capture of the Taiwan’s version of their 辣妹鸡排($6.90). You can get a set for under $10.

I haven’t tried other versions and think as Long as they are chicken chops it’s worth trying. but you can probably give their mushrooms (too thickly Coated with flour) and the crispy chicken part ($5.90, and not as flavourful as the chicken chops) a miss.
