HK Chicken is a long-standing hidden gem inside HK Market known for its massive, "old school" whole Korean fried chicken that is fried to order and served with signature pickled radish and garlic chili sauce. This cash-only takeout spot is highly praised for its fresh, seasoned crispiness and authentic preparation by a 'Korean grandma,' making it a local favorite despite the typical 20-minute wait.
