The Original BonChon Chicken ~ Soy Delicious!

Last night, my little sister brought home a Bonchon Chicken meal.  Bonchon Chicken is a Korean franchise.  Their chicken are fried twice to make them more crispy and less greasy.  We were so happy because we've always wanted to try it out but the venues are not easily accessible from our place.

She brought home a Large Soy Garlic Chicken Combo (720 php)  As we opened the box, soy-garlic aroma spread throughout the room.  At first bite, it so crispy and so delicious I just had to eat more.  I really love the taste because it is not overpowering.  The taste was mild and fragrant that you tend to eat more.  

I also loved the side dishes.  I like spicy food so I can't get enough of their Kimchi Coleslaw (45 php).  It was not too spicy.  It was just enough to tease your taste buds and heighten your appetite.  The Pickled Raddish (45 php) was a good neutralizer. Although, I'm not a fan of pickled food, the raddishes chopped in cubes were not too sour.  It was mildly pickled so it was just right.   

Eat them all together, I'm sure you'll enjoy your meal.  In fact, I couldn't resist it.  I even had another serving of rice.

I also liked their ice tea.  It tasted like honey lemon.  It was thicker than the usual iced tea but not too sweet.

Overall, the meal was superb.  The price is affordable.  I highly recommend it!  We'd certainly try it out more often.    

How about you?  Did you love it too?

Asian Movie Review: A Crazy Little Thing Called Love (First Love)

Last night, I've finally watched  "A Crazy Little Thing Called Love (First Love)".  I have to admit, it is as good as they say it is.  Everything was perfect!  This is my first time to watch a Thai Romantic Movie and I'm really impressed.

Although the plot is nothing special, the creativity of the presentation is beautiful.  I guess the selling point of the movie is that the story is so simple that everyone could relate to it.  We could feel the emotions as the movie plays along.  I don't know about you but I had some tear-jerking moments while watching this movie.  

Chon played by Mario Maurer is the perfect type of guy.  Absolutely no flaws except of being "Torpe" (can't express his love well) so its normal that he gains the admiration of the female audience.

On the other side, Nam played by Pimchanok Leuwisedpaiboo was an ugly girl who transformed herself in to a beautiful lady.  She has not only captivated the male watchers with her beauty but her impressive character development gained the favor of everyone.

I've been wondering though.  How did Nam appear to be fairer after the snow white play?  Did you notice the change in the color of the skin too?

Overall, this is a must watch movie.  This is the kind of movie that leaves impression upon its audience.  Certainly, its fame is a valid proof of that.
