The one piece to order

The Bucket List: the fried chicken, the sauces and banchan, and a glass of Champagne

The line to expect: One of New York's hardest tables. Book weeks ahead, or try the bar right at opening.

Simon Kim's Korean fried chicken hall, on MICHELIN's Bib Gourmand list. The batter is gluten free, the chicken double-fried, and the Champagne list is one of the city's best.

Double-fried Korean fried chicken, plain and yangnyeom

1 hr 15 min · 4 (with beer). What Seoul's chicken houses do: a thin potato-starch batter fried twice, which drives out moisture and leaves a glassy crust that stays crisp even under the sticky, sweet-hot gochujang glaze. Make half plain, half glazed, the way it's ordered.
