| - The Monga Nuggets had a dusting of spicy powder. The Nuggets tasted okay to me; it wasn't too seasoned but the pieces were indeed big and boneless.
I was extremely impressed with the Classic Baoger! The Braised Pork Belly Baoger had pickled cabbage, fresh cucumber, and topped with cilantro and crushed peanuts (although you can ask for it to be without the toppings). I was impressed with this because although we ate this while it was already cold, the bao bun was still very soft and squishy -- which is very rare for baos. Usually when baos are cold, they become tasteless and hard. (It must be because they import the buns from Taiwan!) The braised pork belly was very fatty and delicious. I commend their Baoger for sure!
The Milky Papaya is a take on the classic Taiwanese milk papaya. I thought that it was very good in terms of the quantity of papaya that was in the drink. You could really taste the papaya with each sip. It wasn't very sweet, however, which is a good thing for some and a lacking part for others.
The King Signature Fried Chicken had a dusting of black pepper and salt. Since it was also topped with honey, I could taste the sweetness of it. However, I could barely taste the black pepper or salt part of it. In essence, it was a big thick-cut piece of fried chicken that was fairly bland. It wasn't too crispy either as there wasn't too much batter on it. When you got to the middle part of the chicken, it could be quite dry as well. There was no juice or fattiness in it.
The Taiker Signature Fried Chicken that had Okinawa seaweed on it tasted the same in terms of its insides as The King. There wasn't enough Okinawa seaweed dusted on it to taste much different in my opinion.
Since the portion of the chicken was so large, I definitely wasn't able to finish the cutlet in one sitting. I brought the rest home in a cute little box to enjoy the next day.
