While I was still reeling from the 4-fingered hurrah from 4 Fingers and their signature soy-garlic flavoured Korean-style fried chicken (KFC), there was a serious contender for the throne of best KFC in Singapore. Given how taken I was with the delectable flavours from 4 Fingers, I was both sceptical and excited at the same time. It was a #makanhunt to be made in any case.NeNe Chicken at Star Vista isn't all that easy to find. A small shop housing around 20 seats at best is located along one of
NeNe Chicken at Star Vista isn't all that easy to find. A small shop housing around 20 seats at best is located along one of the smaller side alleys and indeed very easy to miss. The interior was simple, minimalistic - wooden table tops and flat bench chairs - spruced up by a cartoonish wall mural of light pastel colours that brought that touch of levity.
Food wise, $9.90 gets you a set meal at NeNe Chicken. A meal would include your choice of flavoured fried chicken, a packet of fries, a small drink and side of radish.
Swicy Chicken Set As recommended, I picked the Swicy - sweet and spicy - Chicken. Bummer. Despite how the chicken looked, it was by no means crunchy, the sweet and spicy glaze was more cloying than flavourful and did more to reduce the appeal of the chicken by making it mushy, rather than helping it along. The fries were better, skinny fries that were reminiscent of the A&W curly fries in the past.My Verdict: Showdown of the Korean Fried Chicken was won hands down by 4 Fingers. Unless you like your fried chicken more glazed, then consider trying NeNe Chicken.
