Daily Chicken @ Bugis - New Korean Fried Chicken Restaurant Serving Variety of Fried Chicken, Special Crispy Hotteok and More

Daily Chicken is a vibrant new addition to Bugis Junction's food scene, offering a playful take on Korean street food.

A sister brand to Daily Beer, the eatery is decked out in a fun retro diner vibe, with a menu featuring both popular staples and outlet-exclusive dishes.

Daily Cold Bibimmyeon 3.5/5

It was a hot afternoon, so we opted for the Daily Cold Bibimmyeon ($8), a refreshing dish of chewy noodles served in a spicy chilled broth, topped with crunchy cucumbers and hard-boiled egg. While the dish was cooling, we found the broth needed more depth.

For a dry alternative, there's the Daily Bibimmyeon ($8), where the same noodles are tossed in a sticky sweet sauce.

Cup Gangjeong 3.8/5

An interesting to-go-only snack is the Cup Gangjeong, which comes in two sauce options: Red (spicy) and Black (sweet garlic soy). The snack includes a mix of rice cakes with sweet potato, potato wedges or pop dumplings; all placed atop a cup of Sprite or Coke for convenient enjoyment. We went with the Daily Chicken Gangjeong - Red + Soft Drink ($12), expecting a spicy kick. However, the sauce leaned more toward being sweet with just a mild heat.

Daily Chicken Original 4/5

I was most excited about their signature Daily Chicken Original (starting from $17 for half a chicken) and glad it did not disappoint. I particularly liked the crunchy skin and the non-greasy, juicy meat. The fried chicken comes in several flavours, including Red ("spicy angry bird sauce"), Black (sweet garlic soy), and Crunch (coated in corn flakes with garlic and sweet-spicy seasoning). Portions are flexible, allowing diners to choose between half, whole, or a full serving of wings.

Crispy Pastry Honey Hotteok 4/5

For dessert, the Crispy Pastry Honey Hotteok ($14) was a standout on the menu. A twist on the traditional hotteok, this version uses deep-fried honey hotteok for extra crunch and is served with whipped cream. Though the whipped cream was a bit heavy and the hotteok slightly oily, it was a satisfying sweet treat. If you're craving something savoury instead, the Crispy Pastry Corn Cheese Hotteok ($14) replaces sweet and savoury corn cheese.

Seafood Bar

Our first stop was the fresh Seafood Bar, with choices ranging from Snow Crab Leg, Sustainable Boston Lobster, Pacific Clam, Half Shell Scallop, Sea Conch, and more. Our favourites were the sweet Snow Crab Legs, crunchy Tiger Prawns, and the plump Seasonal Oysters with an interesting selection of condiments, including hot sauce, Thai Nam Jim sauce and red wine mignonette.

Handcrafted Meats & Antipasto

The Iberico Ham was a standout for us with its delicate, thinly shaved slices. The Handcrafted Meats & Antipasto station also featured a range of charcuterie, including Beef Salami, Chicken Ham, Pastrami, and more.

Boutique Cheeses

The Boutique Cheeses section is truly a cheese lover's paradise. All sorts of cheeses were available, and you could create your perfect bite paired with options like dried fruits, assorted nuts, honeycomb, and cheese crackers.

Breakfast Station

The popular live Breakfast Station offered a variety of eggs, including Omelette, Scrambled, Sunny Side Up, and the luxurious Lobster Egg Benedict. Pair your eggs with Rosti Potato, Chicken & Pork Sausage, Streaky Pork Bacon, and Grilled Tomato with Pesto for a complete breakfast experience.

Hand-Stretched Pizza

There was even Hand-Stretched Pizza with different flavours available.

Live Pasta Station

We sampled the Squid Ink Linguine Aglio Olio and Truffle Creamy Mushroom Tortellini from the Live Pasta Station. Unfortunately, the linguine was underseasoned, and the tortellini was a bit too salty for our liking.

Whole Golden Pig

Singapore Chilli and Salted Egg Crab

Make sure to check out the Singapore Chilli and Salted Egg Crab, where free-flow fluffy golden mantou is available for the best pairing.

Western Hot Station

At the Western Hot Station, you can expect hearty choices such as Baked Chicken Roulade with Creamy Mushroom Sauce, Pan Seared Sustainable Barramundi Fillet with Citrus Emulsion, Seafood Bouillabaisse and more.

Local Delights

If you crave Local Delights, you can satisfy them with dishes such as XO Fried Rice with Shrimp, Wok-fried Kam Hiang Tiger Prawn and Samsui Kampong Chicken. I particularly loved the unassuming Stir-fried Beans with Minced Pork that was seasoned perfectly.

Roasted Stall

The Roasted Stall offered Roasted Pork Belly, Maltose Honey Char Siew and Roasted Chicken, served with staples of rice, chicken rice chilli sauce, dark soya sauce and ginger paste.

Edge Nyonya Laksa

The Edge Nyonya Laksa was nicely lemak. We also appreciated how you could add your preferred Yong Tau Foo to your bowl.

Indian Cuisine

Indulge in a vibrant spread at the Indian Cuisine station, including Lamb Biryani Rice, Butter Chicken, Tandoori Tiger Prawn, various Naan, and more.

Desserts

We were spoiled for choice with a stunning variety of Desserts. The intricately designed desserts came in a huge variety, including Tartlets, Macarons, Pralines and Trifles.

Assorted Nyonya Kueh

Assorted Ice Cream, Gelato and Sorbet

Finish on a sweet and refreshing note with the Assorted Ice Cream, Gelato and Sorbet with flavours such as Strawberry, Mango and Lemon Lime. We had the Strawberry and liked that it was creamy and wasn’t too sweet.
