That day, I sampled the Boneless Platter Set which includes four beverages including refreshing Lemonade, Orange Juice and Iced Teas to open up the palate before the feast at BB.Q Chicken.
Then, a soothing bowl of BB.Q Chicken's signature Seafood Sundubu Jjigae with the day's fresh catch like shrimps, clams and squid along with enoki mushrooms and silky tofu in a savory and mildly spicy broth was served...
Each sip drapes the palate with its hearty and comforting notes followed by the briny sweetness of the seafood and vegetables, the nutty hints of the tofu and the bold and vibrant flavors of the broth. In true Korean style, the freshness of the ingredients with its unrestrained flavors comes through with each sip and bite.

...before a tempting piece of BB.Q Chicken's specialty Korean fried chicken. The secret to BB.Q Chicken's specialty Korean fried chicken? It's the thin, more delicate and even crispness with each bite using olive oil for richer, fuller and rounder flavors. Deep-fried in olive oil, the Crunch Butter variant delivers a mild sweetness followed by an indulgent savory richness from the butter perfectly tempered by just a whisper of heat for that balanced finish.

Sweet, sour, mildly smoky and spicy, the Secret Chicken by BB.Q Chicken offers a medley of contrasting yet balanced notes in a perfectly seamless weave.
The indulgent sharpness of cheese comes into play with the Cheeseling with its rich layer of BB.Q Chicken's very own cheese powder. The savory richness of the juicy and crisp chicken are complemented by the bold notes of the cheese giving this variant a unique flavor profile. The cheese powder brings a unique and different kind of savory richness to the chicken completed by the juicy and crunchy finish.
The aptly named Red Spicy brings a bold yet soothing layer of heat from the spicy chili seasonings, Vietnamese chili powder and exotic blend of spices...
...while the Ma-Ra weaves both sweet and spicy layers in a balanced blend for solid flavors with each bite. The heat isn't overpowering, yet it gradually builds up with each bite.
