Fried chicken lovers, do not miss this! Pelicana has landed in Thailand. This legendary Korean fried chicken chain, open for over 40 years with more than 3,000 branches worldwide, has opened its first Thai location right in the heart of Siam, on the 3rd floor of SIAMSCAPE. This place is huge in Korea, earning the nickname "King of Chicken." All ingredients ship directly from Korea, so the taste is exactly the original as eaten in Korea, with a choice of up to 10 sauces.
We tried the Signature sauce fried chicken and it was excellent, and the Smoky Hot sauce, which has a genuine smokiness, was fragrant in its own way too. The kimchi soup here is nicely balanced, not too sour. The crispy chicken burger has a really big piece of chicken, with chewy bread and a great sauce.
There's a cheese ball cheese-stretch contest held monthly — the longest stretch wins a 1,500-baht voucher plus 1,500 baht in cash. For those who like set meals, there's a Thai-style chicken rice set that comes with fried chicken and a house spicy dip. Overall, this place nails the flavor for this style of fried chicken — genuinely delicious, no letdown.
