As the title says, half priced Korean fried chicken. They're normally around $30+ at most Korean restaurants, but here on Wednesday, 15 dollars for a whole fried chicken, and additional dollar if you want it coated with the Korean style sweet chilli or sweet soy sauce.

The place is called Poong Nab Dong, and its address is 205 Rowe St Eastwood NSW 2122

The waiter at the restaurant said it's on every Wednesday, but wasn't sure when it'd end.

This is my first post, so be critical if must, but don't be too cruel haha.

    Looks like the Chinese side of Eastwood (if you know Eastwood you know what I mean) which is strange for a Korean joint??

    In Rowe Street, opposite the school….

      Opposite the school? Then there's also a Red Rooster of Eastwood there!

    go to Jean's chilli chicken
    115 Rowe St Eastwood, near train station
    I promise you won't be disappointed, best Korean chicken I've had, and I've been to Korea multi times

    • GreatWhiteHunter on 19/11/2014 - 18:30

      How much is Jean's chicken though??

      EDIT: According to Urbanspoon Jean's price is $34…

      I'll give the $16 version a hit…

      A couple friends actually got food poisoning there.. Me and another mate was eating with them that same night and nothing happen to us.. It is strange. We still eat their chicken snitzel every now and then tho, no problem with that but chicken does taste a bit off. Owner is always nice and friendly, and always say something funny, he must be high on chilli or something.

          Haha yeah. I wonder why it's so expensive for 1 whole chicken. (Never tried it because of the price)

        • brongz on 19/11/2014 - 21:01

        • zealmax on 20/11/2014 - 09:28

          @brongz:

          It's just KFC hot & spicy, covered in sweet chili sauce. Well pretty much, maybe bit of garlic in the sauce too. Wife made it once before. Will try again once hot & spicy is back.

    Eastwood was the only place i knew ever had a McDonalds gone out of business and closed down (not relocation). Healthy competition, good for customers.

    Just back from Poong Nab Dong

    Had a 1/2 and 1/2 Original + Garlic Teryaki

    CHicken was fresh, I prefer Original. Solo diner and couldnt eat it all so paid another 50c ($16.50 all up) for a takeaway container….

    Now I know why so many Korean men like Filipina women…

        Brongz if you travel Asia you will find a lot of Korean men in go-go bars, karaoke bars etc.

        They have a preference for a certain look of girl and pay top dollar…

        Australians and Americans have a bad reputation for misbehaviour abroad. From what I have seen in PI, Korean men are far worse…

        Funny too that the same guy in Australia wouldn't say boo, but in PI he thinks he is the king…

      • imcold on 20/11/2014 - 07:13

        if your bring your own container you could have saved 50c

    When I got there after 40 min, they said no more chicken.

    In Seoul, a bunch of Korean ajeosshi invited for Korean fried chicken and mekju and it was like the best fried chicken I've ever tasted outside my home country's traditional fried chicken (my mom's made).

    Can somebody told me the brand name? The logo is funny chicken (nerdy yellow rooster with spectacle and red jowl)………

    From my experience, no overseas Korean fried chicken can beat the above mentioned chicken. Not even the Singpr' or NewYor'bonchon korean fried chicken.

    UPDATE
    After a bit of internet search I think it was KyoChon chicken http://www.kyochon.com/main.asp Make sure to enjoy this tasty chicken when you travel there

      I think that is actually dog meat.

      • scrimshaw on 20/11/2014 - 00:11

        Dog meat is officially banned in Seoul though.

    • strangeloops66 on 20/11/2014 - 01:01

      +1 for KyoChon chicken. There's a store in Brisbane (Sunnybank Hills). Soy and double-fried. I love the pickled radish cubes that come with it, too. The chicken is pretty close to the in-Korea version, but somehow different.

      • lufee on 20/11/2014 - 05:10

        One in Sunnybank hills is not same as in-Korea one. Just same name but not related to kyochon in Korea. Also their chicken is horrible from my experience, so many bone rather then meat.

    • Dark Zeus on 20/11/2014 - 09:29

      Logo of funny chicken is quite offended.

      I was in Korea. I love KyoChon chicken, but many "no name" chicken restaurants in Korea are still good too as my experience. I really miss free delivery chicken at 11pm or 12am :(

      Does Korean Fried Chicken wake you up at 2am with stomach cramps so severe you are sure an Alien is going to burst out of your abdomen like the classic Sigourney Weaver movie? That's what KFC does to me.

      There has been 1/2 price KFC at this store for the past 2 months so I would say there is a high likelihood that it will be on again next Wed.

      Why neg the deal ?

      WTF - are you going to give us an explanation of why???

      This week I am going to try sitting outside downstairs…

      Last week I sat upstairs, but downstairs looked good (except for the dunnies being right there too…)

  • jennkei on 22/12/2014 - 03:23

    Tried this out last Wednesday, it was okay. Should have eaten immediately, was a bit soggy by the time I got to it. Prefer the way Mad Fo Chicks does their chicken, though.
