Momo Chicken and Beer

This is the post I've been avoiding, because this place is popular enough already without me having to promote it. It's the hands down, best fried chicken joint in all of Brisbane. I go here religiously. like once a fortnight. It's honestly one of the very few places in Brisbane that is open late night, like normal countries late night, midnight erryday. I've dragged all my coworkers and family members here. Its basically my restaurant version of Maccas.

It's located in the shopping centre part of Runcorn Plaza, right on the corner. Parking is pretty decent most days but try and avoid parking underneath the big trees at sunset, your car will get covered in bird shit.

Here is their menu.

 This is literally the first thing I've ever ordered and my last dish on earth. Half a honey soy fried chicken with a serve of home made crunchy potato chips. Oh. My. God. Their fried chicken is to die for, such an amazing earth shattering crunch, that manages to stay even until the second day of eating! They have such tender, juicy chicken as well covered in a luscious, sticky, sweet and salty sauce, I honestly lick my finger and drag it through what's leftover in the box. Get the chicken on the bone, that's where the flavour is!

The potato chips are also amazing here. They're super thin, made on site and taste like fried chicken themselves since I think they're fried in the same cooking oil.

It comes with a box of amazing radish pickles. Misshapen, roughly cut cubes that are obviously cut and pickled on site.


Yassss


Yessss lunch and after school special
Here is their spicy, cheesy and chicken dish. It comes with a huge amount of green onions, spicy chicken, onion, garlic and obviously a lot of cheese. The sauce is a mixture of gochujang and friends. It is mouth burning spicy but the cheese helps, this is a dish that definitely needs a bunch of rice to go with.


Sizzling
This is their plain fried chicken, its no different from the honey soy aside from the fact that it comes with a very tangy, honey mustard sauce.


Glorious fried chicken
Here is their awful kimchi pancake. It is soggy and uncut, when asked about this, they said that they don't cut it for you because its not served that way in South Korea. They seemed very surprised when we asked for scissors as a result.



Passss
I forgot to take photos but also, ALWAYS get their soy fried noodle. Its an udon noodle in a slippery, dark soy sauce with a lot of vegetables, carrot and cabbage, that somehow makes up for the lack of meat you get eating an entire bird of chicken. If you get the soy fried noodles, it also comes with their fancy side dishes, pasta salad, kimchi and pickled seaweed!

Momo Chicken and Beer
Atmosphere: 3, super pub like. Noisy and full of drinking.
Service: 3, inefficient, abrupt and vague. Two girls for the entire store, they often leave tables dirty for a long period of time before cleaning them up and are slow to answer buzzers if you're not Korean.
Food: 10, absolutely freaking excellent. The best fried chicken in town! I bring people here all the time and if you see an Asian girl in a nurses uniform, its probably me. Or one of my friends here I guess?
