🇰🇷 Halifax Downtown | Korean Fried Chicken Adventure at Chicking 🍗

If you're craving Korean fried chicken in Halifax, Chicking on Spring Garden Road is definitely worth a visit. We recently tried their offerings, and here's the full breakdown of our experience—from the fiery (or not-so-fiery) wings to the surprisingly delicious rice bowls. 🏠 Location & Order Details 📍 *5680 Spring Garden Rd, Halifax, NS B3J 1H5* 💰 Our Order: Half & Half Chicken (King Chicken + Snow Onion) Chibab (Fried Chicken Rice Bowl) Bud Light (Because fried chicken and beer are a match made in heaven) Total After Tax & Tip (15%): $83.25 CAD 🍗 The Chicken Showdown 🔥 King Chicken (Spicy Level 3 - Jalapeño & Capsaicin) Heat Level: Despite ordering the "maximum spice" option (and receiving a warning from the staff), it was not spicy at all! 😅 No tingling lips, no tears—just a flavorful, saucy glaze. Flavor: Still delicious! The chicken was coated in a thick, sticky sauce with a slight kick (but seriously, where was the heat?). The meat itself was juicy and well-fried, with a crispy exterior. ❄️ Snow Onion Chicken Star of the Meal: This was the clear winner for us. The sauce had a unique, tangy-sweet flavor that stood out, and the chicken remained succulent beneath all those crispy bits and fresh green onions. Texture: The contrast between the crunchy coating and tender meat was perfect. 🍚 Chibab (Fried Chicken Rice Bowl) Unexpected Highlight: Don’t sleep on this dish! The crispy chicken chunks over rice, paired with veggies and sauce, created a harmonious bite that was both satisfying and flavorful. Portion Size: Generous enough to share (or not, no judgment). 🍺 The Verdict Pros: Chicken is juicier and fresher-tasting than many other Halifax spots. Snow Onion flavor is a must-try—distinctive and addictive. Chibab is a sleeper hit—great for a quick, tasty meal. Cons: Spicy chicken wasn’t spicy (big letdown for heat seekers). Pricey for what you get (though downtown Halifax isn’t cheap in general). Final Rating: 7.5/10 — Solid, but not life-changing. If you’re downtown and craving KFC (Korean Fried Chicken, not the Colonel), it’s a good option. 📌 Tips for Visiting Spice Lovers: Maybe ask for extra chili flakes or sauce on the side. Best Time to Go: Weekday afternoons are less crowded than evenings. What to Order: Snow Onion Chicken + Chibab combo is the way to go. #HalifaxEats #KoreanFriedChicken #FoodieReview #HalifaxLife #Chicking #FriedChickenLover #FoodDiaries #EatLikeALocal #SpicyOrNot #ComfortFood #StudentEats #DowntownHalifax 🍗✨🔥
