As of 2013, South Korea had more than 20,000 fried chicken eateries, and according to the Korean Statistical Office, the market for fried chicken is worth about $3 billion. It is so widely available and with such variety that many Koreans even order the delicacy for delivery when they come home or while at work. If you want to take your group out to try Korean food for any occasion Korean fried chicken really can't be beaten.

Korean fried chicken tends to be lighter and crispier with a thin, almost paper-like skin that is not heavily battered.

In the 1950s, American soldiers who were stationed in South Korea during the Korean War used fried chicken as a substitute for turkey on thanksgiving. This was likely the first introduction of the food to the Korean people, who had only ever really eaten chicken in stews such as samgyetang. In the 1960s, the first-ever rotisserie chicken shop opened in Myeongdong, along with the invention of “yellow bag chicken”, which was when parents would bring home rotisserie chicken in a bag to give to their families.

We, Oven & Fried Chicken (OFC), are the combined brand of OKKUDAK and SSALDAK, two of the most popular chicken restaurants in Korea.

Since opening in Singapore in October 2014, we have been loved by locals, expatriates, tourists and as well as Koreans. We look forward to serving only the highest quality, healthy and tasty chicken in Southeast Asia and all over the world.

OKKUDAK’s speciality is in the preparation of its chicken through baking and without oil while SSALDAK’s unique chicken coat of rice flour, instead of wheat flour is another highlight to look forward to.
