The Craze for Fried Chicken


For months now, the northeast corner of 32nd Street and Fifth Avenue has promised that Kyochon, a Korean fried chicken company, would be coming soon. There had been no signs of progress until two weekends ago when finally I noticed the door open and some men working inside. And more recently plywood went up. Maybe it won't be too long now....

It seems that it's coming at a time of fried chicken madness. The Times Dining section last week noted the many non-Southern style fried chickens available in the city.

And Bon Chon, which used to be on the opposite corner from Kyochon but became Mad for Chicken, is opening up a new branch in Midtown on 38th between 7th and 8th.
