Ordering Strategy

Embrace the 'Anju' tradition (food meant to be eaten with alcohol). Order a large portion of Yangyum chicken to share, a side of buns, and pair with cold beer or Soju. Be aware that food is often served in disposable containers.

What to order

Safe first

Yangyum Fried Chicken

A 'must-visit' dish described as 'crispy and moreish.' Reviewers consistently name it the standout of the menu, recommending the 'sweet spicy' sauce for a 'naughty' and authentic 'Chimaek-style' experience with beer.

Hungry

Bulgogi Beef Buns

Praised as the 'most tender option' and 'flawlessly fluffy,' these buns are a crowd favorite that often leave diners 'wishing there were more than two per order.'

Wildcard

Bab Twigim

Explicitly labeled a 'wild card choice' by reviewers, these 'kimchi and cheese arancini' offer a 'great duo of flavours' that is surprisingly effective and pairs perfectly with Korean cocktails.

What to skip

Skip
Chicken Mandu (Kun Mandu)— While the taste is fine, reviewers found these 'fairly standard' and noted the price seemed 'steep' for only 'three small pieces,' suggesting diners skip them in favor of more buns or rice dishes.
