Met up with my girlies a few days ago on a Tuesday night in Strathfield for some Korean feed.

Fried chicken, $14.00 with extra sweet spicy sauce, $1.00 |
Fried chicken!! You have to get the extra sweet spicy sauce because it makes it taste much better. This fried chicken came with the usual pickled daikon (which I love) and the chicken was decent, though it's got nothing on
NaruOne, I'm sorry. Just wasn't as juicy or succulent. Could really go back for more of NaruOne's fried chicken right now!

Udon stir fried with udon, $15.00 |
They definitely were not stingy with the seafood here at all! Look at all that octopus, squid, mussel, and prawns... The spicy sauce had a lovely kick to it.

Beef ribs and vegetables with rice cakes, $15.00 |
This dish had a similar spicy sauce to the udon but who's complaining when it tastes good and there's rice cakes? I think I have a slight obsession with those chewy strips of goodness. The beef could've had a little more time to cook just to make it fall of the bone, but the flavour was there and it was pretty fantastic. Hidden vermicelli noodles hidden underneath everything! I loved dipping the rice cake into the sweet spicy sauce that came with the fried chicken. That was some good chilli sauce.

Pork schnitzel with rice and salad, $15.00 |
Holy look at the size of that schnitzel! To give you an idea of how huge that schnitzel was, that little mound of purple rice is the normal serving size of rice you would get when going to restaurants. Yep. The schnitzel was as big as my face. And boy was it good. The crust was so crunchy, yet not excessively oily. The sweet and sour sauce provided on the side really finished things off. Loved the purple rice as well - something I had never seen until now! Slightly more sticky than the normal white rice I eat.
Good food and huge serving sizes. Ended up being less than $15 per person!
Headed over to Yogurberry for dessert because who doesn't have room for froyo? :D Bumped into a few other friends I hadn't seen for a while too - it's always great catching up!

They need a Naru one in Strathfield!! But at least the fried chicken was somewhat decent. Fried chicken is always good.
ReplyDeleteI think my life would be complete if there was a NaruOne in Strathfield! But fried chicken is normally tasty!
Deletewow the portion size is huge! I am with Shan lets get a Naru in Straithfield!
ReplyDeleteI would have fried chicken feasts in Strathfield all the time if that were the case :D But that pork schnitzel was pretty damned amazing too!
Deletei use to walk past this place a lot but have never gone inside or just went to naru one cos the menu looked pretty limited. but if they have fried chicken, im going!
ReplyDeleteI'd recommend the pork schnitzel over the fried chicken here! Naru is where the juicy fried chicken is at :D
DeleteOh it all looks so delicious! And such BIG platefuls of food :) Yummy
ReplyDeleteThe serving sizes were definitely huge! And the schnitzel was bigger than my face! (or at least almost was :P)
Deleteomg looks so amazing! Always up for some Korean fried chicken and that pork schnitty looks epic
