Finally, fried fermented prawn paste chicken that bursts with umami goodness!
Sure, there are lots of food options in Singapore, but when it comes to comfort food, nothing beats the mouthwatering, savory har cheong (prawn paste) chicken wings. Ah, just the mere mention of this crunchy, delectable goodness makes those cravings kick in.
Well, here’s some good news: a new takeaway kiosk, Har Har Chicken, is opening at Junction 8 on July 5, with two more outlets coming soon. This venture is helmed by one-Michelin-starred restaurant Labyrinth’s chef-owner Han Liguang, social media personality Lennard Yeong, restauranteur Tay Jianli, and investment professional Bevin Desker.
Here’s Everything You Need to Know About Har Har Chicken!
As a staple found in almost all zi char stores in Singapore, we all know how much Singaporeans love har cheong gai. Crispy on the outside and bursting with rich umami flavors on the inside, this local favorite has now been reimagined by four Singaporean foodies and, obviously, prawn paste chicken lovers.
On July 5, Har Har Chicken! opens at Junction 8, Bishan, to serve up not only their signature perfectly fried prawn paste chicken but also a variety of other mouthwatering options. The menu includes Har Har Wings, Har Har Pops, the Har-burger, and the Har-ty Saver Rice Box. Your favorite chicken dish is no longer just a side but is now the star of this culinary venture.
For only S$3.20 per piece (or S$18 for six), you can indulge in the Har Har Wings. These whole wings are marinated, coated in har cheong batter, and fried to crispy perfection. Depending on your cravings, you can opt for just one or get all six to satisfy your appetite!
Now, if you prefer a boneless option that’s easy to munch on, try the Har Har Pops. For only S$4.80, these flavorful treats come with a choice of mayonnaise or chicken rice chili for dipping.
Taking prawn paste chicken to new heights, Har Har Chicken! also offers the Har-burger. This sandwich features a generous piece of golden har cheong cutlet, fresh tomato, and lettuce, all nestled between fluffy buns. You can choose from regular mayo or spice things up with sriracha mayo.
And if you would want to treat yourself to a mouthful serving of prawn paste chicken—because you deserve such a good treat after a long day—you can enjoy Har Har Chicken’s Har-ty Saver Rice Box. It includes one wing, a choice of fries or chicken rice, and chicken rice chili. For more options, there’s the Har-ty Double Wing Box (S$9.60), which comes with two wings, and the Har-ty Boneless Thigh Box (S$9.80), featuring a whole boneless har cheong thigh cutlet.
For a minimal amount, you can also add a fried egg (S$1.20), mini popcorn (S$2), and mini achar-slaw (S$1.20) for a completely satisfying meal. And in celebration of International Fried Chicken Day on July 6, Har Har Chicken! is offering a 1-for-1 Box Set deal from July 5 to 7.
