Last night I arrived in Newark, took a cab to Hoboken, and then met up with Tien and Jeannette in Koreatown in Manhattan. BonChon specializes in Korean fried chicken. We had drumsticks and wings in the ginger-soy and spicy flavors. We also got Mexican corn (you read that right) and some spicy rice cakes. I liked the food but the service was horrible!
This morning Jess, Julie, Stephanie and I left for South Yarmouth, Cape Cod. We’re here right now in our rental house. I was glad that Jeannette and Tien were free to meet up because it might be the only time I have to see them on this trip and a visit with each of them was long overdue.
PS. Check out BonChon’s site. Really strange. I think maybe it’s just very literally translated from Korean? The way they describe the restaurant and the food is like they’re making a power point presentation about TPS reports more than enticing you with colorful language to make you want to eat there. Check out this graphic I pulled from their site, for example:
it was great to see you, lady. thanks for braving the path after your flight in.
bon chon was tasty, and next time you come visit we’ll have to check out the goods at UFC (unidentified flying chicken) in jackson heights. even better!
have a great time at the cape and say hi to the gals for me!
