For homemade dressing we mixed olive oil, red wine, Dash, soysauce and vinegar.

It's healthy and tasty but I need to grab something more to eat. I've been starving too much in the morning. Maybe I'll make some kimchi fried rice.

Following recipe serves about 4 people:

Ingredients

Chicken marinade
2lbs Chicken breast
1/2 cup red pepper paste
1tbsp red pepper flake
1tbsp honey/sugar
1tbsp garlic
1tbsp wine
1tbsp soy sauce
1tbsp sesame oil

Vegetable side
3 scallions
1/4 cabbage
1 carrot
1 green pepper
1/2 green bell pepper
1 onion

Slice chicken to good bite size.

Mix marinade ingredients with chicken.

Slice all vegetables thinly.

First, cook chicken only. Don't cook in the highest temperature. Maybe about 8 for the temp knob.

When the meat is almost cooked, add veggies in and cook thoroughly.

Serve with rice. You can just mix them all together and eat. Yummm
OR with rice noodles. If you need some extra flavor for your noodle, you might consider adding sesame oil and some hot sriracha sauce to noodles. OR you could make extra marinade on the side for the noodles!

TIP If it was too spicy for you, just drink a cup of ice cold milk.

Enjoy!

Their fried chicken uses less oil and very crispy. They warn you when you order that the food will be out 30-45 minutes after so please call ahead or be prepared to wait. They sure take time cooking (draining oil out) and no one minds waiting since it really doesn't feel greasy but very crispy and a great flavor too! Worth the wait.

You can also order take out as well. I've tried taking a picture of dine in too but the pictures weren't good at all. Sorry. But basically you just get the same thing as the take out. My family started to attack the chicken so I kinda had to stop them and take a picture before all the chicken is gone LOL. Can you find the bone?

When you order the options you have to choose from are the following:

1. wings or drumsticks or mix (I choose wings)
2. soy garlic sauce or hot sauce (I choose half & half)
3. Medium or Large (Usually Large)
and if you are stumped or confused, servers seem to speak English pretty well and nice enough so don't be afraid to ask!

With every chicken dish comes pickled radish that's perfect pairing with fried chickens like coleslaw or pickles. Yum Yum! Of course, you can ask for seconds!
Also if you are dining in rather than the take out, you HAVE to ask for the salad.
I've asked the servers and they told me that they ONLY GIVE you the salad only when you ask for it.
I don't know why but that's their way.
With salad and pickled radish on your side you are good to go! Yum~

One thing that bothered me was that VA still allows indoor smoking...(MD started no smoking law) so that was one thing that bothered me but other than that good service, good food, and stuffed belly. I was happy!
