Korean Fried Chicken in Malta, Done the Saigon Way

Korean fried chicken is not regular fried chicken with a passport. The batter is lighter, the crunch is louder, and the sauce — sweet, spicy, glossy — is the entire point. It is one of the dishes people message us about, so here is the map of every way to get it at Saigon.

The main event

Korean Fried Chicken (€13) — crisp-fried chicken tossed in a sweet and spicy sauce with carrot, cabbage and peanuts, served over rice or noodles. It is the order for people who want the crunch-to-sauce ratio handled properly. And because we believe in equal rights to crispy things, Korean Fried Tofu (€13) runs the same treatment for the plant-based table — no sad substitution energy anywhere near it.

The wings

Our Fiffla x Saigon Spicy Chili Wings (€8) are our chilli crisp collaboration with Fiffla Chili Co. — topped with crushed peanuts, spring onion and fresh herbs. And Korean chicken wings headline the appetizer round of Festa Ażjatika, our €29.50 group feast for tables of ten and up.

If you like the genre, the menu keeps going: Bang Bang Chicken brings the creamy-nutty version of the crispy-chicken idea, and the Katsu Bang burger stacks fried chicken with bang bang sauce, gherkins and seasoned fries. Between them, consider your crispy chicken needs institutionally covered — at Gżira, Birkirkara, the airport, or delivered to your door.
