Just had a really unenjoyable meal at fuku. Got a Korean fried chicken burger but it was just plain fried chicken, no sauce (at the most 2 droplets of sauce). Shame, this place had been on my list for a while but it's now firmly off it.
Update: according to the passive aggressive response from Fuku, their idea of Korean fried chicken is adding some mayo and gochujang. If you know anything about Korean fried chicken it'll be obvious this is just pretending to be it. haven't tried the rest of their food so it might be awesome, but I'd avoid the Korean fried chicken based on what I had.

I got the salt & pepper chicken with half rice & half chips which came with a choice of sauce. The portion size is shocking considering the price! Luckily I wasn’t that hungry but you’d definitely need to order something on the side if you haven’t eaten all day.
