Get it with the spicy coating, or get a mix of pieces and different sauces. If you cannot share and must choose, I like the wings best. <\/p>\n<p>Korean fried chicken is the best fried chicken around these parts, and it is even (somewhat) healthier for you than regular fried chicken. Everyone should try one of these branches.  <\/p>\n<p>The menu here also has about a dozen other Korean dishes, including Bul-Gogi and seafood pancake but you can consider those irrelevant. Note this: cooking the chicken the right way takes about half an hour. Either call ahead or hope to get lucky on the timing and catch a fresh batch.  <\/p>\n<p>These places also serve lots of beer as the accompanying drink. If you are not already on the Korean fried chicken bandwagon, now is time to jump on.  BonChon has been spreading, while maintaining high quality standards.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/4CE_Qh9_HCY?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n<h3 class='related_post_title'>Related Posts:<\/h3><ul class='related_post'><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/mr-tofu-house-bbq\/\" title=\"Mr. Tofu House &#038; BBQ\">Mr. Tofu House &#038; BBQ<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/choong-man-chicken\/\" title=\"Choong Man Chicken\">Choong Man Chicken<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/taco-ssam\/\" title=\"Taco Ssam\">Taco Ssam<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/evergreen-korean-cuisine-or-sang-rok-soo\/\" title=\"Evergreen Korean Cuisine, or Sang Rok Soo\">Evergreen Korean Cuisine, or Sang Rok Soo<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/korean-food-specialists\/\" title=\"Korean Food Specialists\">Korean Food Specialists<\/a><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BonChon, web site, 7215 Columbia Pike, Annandale, VA (you also can enter from 236 by the Giant), 703-914-1415 (Metro Trip Planner &#8211; opens in new window) [WaPo | Washingtonian | City Paper | NoVA Mag | Don Rockwell | Ylp] &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/bonchon\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38,44,3],"tags":[990,989,985,984,986,987,916,988],"class_list":["post-2915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-annandale","category-korean","category-virginia","tag-3j-ccoaa3ec","tag-4ce_qh9_hcy","tag-bon-chon","tag-bonchon","tag-bul-gogi","tag-bulgogi","tag-korean-fried-chicken","tag-seafood-pancake"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2915","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2915"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2915\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2921,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2915\/revisions\/2921"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
