Outdark Hongdae
아웃닭 홍대점 · Korean Fried Chicken
ABOUT
Outdark Hongdae is a Korean fried-chicken restaurant known for serving fried chicken with a generous amount of fries and fried rice cakes on the side. The Original Princeton Fried Chicken is one of the main menu items, while soy sauce, garlic, spicy and seasoned versions offer different flavor profiles. Current listings show the chicken using 100% domestic chilled chicken thigh meat. The restaurant is located close to Sangsu Station and operates into the early morning on Fridays and Saturdays. It is designed more for casual evening dining and drinking than for a quick takeaway meal. The combination of chicken, fries, fried rice cakes and dipping sauces makes it particularly suited to sharing with friends over beer.
