This is "Yinfeng Hall Korean Fried Chicken," hidden near the Jing'an Station in Zhonghe. Its appearance is so understated that you might miss it if you walk by, but the taste is anything but low-key; it truly has strength.
This time we ordered two types of boneless fried chicken (small portions):
Signature Sweet and Spicy Boneless Fried Chicken ($120)
This flavor is quite representative; the moment you take a bite, you get the illusion of being in Korea. The sauce has a mildly spicy sweet and sour flavor, thick but not greasy, intense but not overwhelming. Paired with the crispy fried exterior, it perfectly embodies the feel of a Korean drama accompaniment.
First Snow Cheese Boneless Fried Chicken ($130)
This one is gentler, with a generous sprinkle of salty-sweet Korean cheese powder. The milk flavor isn't too overwhelming; it's the kind of taste that makes you want to devour it in silence. The exterior remains crispy, and the meat is tender. Even when taken home, it maintains that texture, which is quite impressive.
For the side, we chose the sweet and sour radish, which is one of the complimentary small dishes (the other option is plain yogurt). It's crunchy and refreshing, making a big difference when eating fried chicken halfway through. We also added tteok (rice cake); it has a chewy texture but isn't hard, the kind that encourages you to keep snacking quietly.
Overall, Yinfeng Hall is definitely worth a try. Although it has low visibility, the meat is tender, the skin is crispy, the sauce is flavorful, and the side dishes are thoughtful—it's a fried chicken place that makes you want to come back.
