This is my first English review on OR, I will try my best but please excuse me for any flaw you may see There are already quite a number of reviews for Golden Fried Chicken but I guess writing a review (with photos and a little more detailed report) for expatriates and tourists may perhaps be a good idea.

There are already quite a number of reviews for Golden Fried Chicken but I guess writing a review (with photos and a little more detailed report) for expatriates and tourists may perhaps be a good idea.
The snack shop is named after the popular local internet forum Hong Kong Golden Forum (香港高登討論區), which is famous for its discussions in computer and technology-related topics, as well as for the creative derivative works its members share. The original owner of this shop was a member of the forum, and some of the names of the snacks come from the popular jargons inside the forum e.g. "Primary School Chicken" (小學雞), which originally refers to naive and ignorant people who behaved like kids, but here they are tasty bite-sized fried chicken pieces.After signing the petition against the legislation of the stupid and vicious copyright bill which forbids the creation and sharing of derivative works, my unconscious mind led me here for a little evil fried food treat.
I ordered a spicy fried chicken fillet. The girl who took my order asked if I would like to cut the fillet into pieces, and I said yes. As usual, they only submerged the chicken into the oil after the order is made. I stood and waited for about 10 minutes, but the freshness and hotness of the fried chicken was ensured.
Fried Chicken Fillet (東大雞排）
The portion is actually quite generous (though it is actually the average size of fried chicken fillet in local street shops). It smells irresistible and looks attractive: with a crispy skin overlaying the soft and juicy meat. The fillet is thick enough to create in the mouth a fulfilling sense in every bite. Some people may find it a little bit too salty but the hot-flavour seasoning is just perfect for me. However, the heavy seasoning still fails to cover the hint of rancid taste created by the "aging" cooking oil. I started to have that uncomfortable oily feeling in mouth before finishing off my last quarter of the fillet. I have no idea how often do they renew/refill their frying oil, perhaps it's "old" only because it was late at night and the oil has already deteriorated during the day .
After all it's not a bad fried chicken fillet, especially for its price, the quality is up to standard, and I will probably come back for another deep frying treat. 張貼
