Korean fried chicken

[saluki]

Anyone have any idea how well these travel when packed to go?

They traveled pretty well to Bensalem. Only problem was keeping my hands put of the box while driving---- Very hard to do when it tastes like that.

By the time I arrived home I had a half of a box left. LOL

It was boxed to prevent sogginess.

I haven't tried to take them out, and they might still be OK, but given that part of the appeal is the texture, I can't imagine they could be quite as good if they were in an enclosed box, steaming themselves.

But perhaps Saluki has found the solution - just eat most of them on the ride home!

I have brought them from the NY places and had them cold next day. Still bangin'

Has anyone tried the place across the street? The place is named "Sports Bar" and I hear the bird is better there.

It is really hard to imagine Chicken better than Soho's.

While I was awaiting take out I noticed several orders being packed to go ahead of mine.

They were really careful about it so, I guess they are used to take out

I don't know if I'm imagining but there seemed to be venting in the box.

I would call ahead for a takeout order as this process seems to be a little labor intensive, so I don't know how many orders they could handle without getting backed up.

If you are right about Sports Bar; Cheltenham Avenue just may be the best kept secret in the city for Fried Chicken.

I learned recently that Sports Bar is the same chicken as Soho, they just walk it across the street. I'm actually surprised to hear that Soho was open. About a week ago we tried to go but there was a big sign that the building was condemned and they sent us across the street.

We've gotten the wings as take-out several times and they survive our short ride amazingly well. I've even had them a couple hours later and they are remarkably crispy. I really want to know how they do that.

So, anyone want to weigh in on how Soho's chicken compares to the New York K-Town joints? Namely, Bon Chon and Baden Baden?

Who's had all three?

I'll get a chance next month to try Bon Chon & Baden Baden.

[KitchenMom]

The take-out boxes all say Bon Chon, so I suspect it is the same or very similar, though I've never had it in NY.

Quick research indicates that Baden Baden is Korean fried chicken as interpreted through a German beer hall. As such, maybe they don't do takeout.
