Taiwan’s #1 Large Fried Chicken is Drawing Crowd of Hungry Foodies in Phnom Penh

HOT-STAR Large Fried Chicken is the hottest food buzz in town at the moment! This shop recently launched its first worldly famous International franchise in Cambodia and it did not take long for words to spread about the 30cm fried chicken, super crispy, and as juicy as a fried chicken gets! And that means it’s probably even better than you expected! 

What’s the benefit of the Large Size? Without cutting the chicken into small pieces, you’re essentially preserving all the juicy goodness inside the chicken while maintaining a super crispy outer shell. The result is something you’ve never tasted before. They strongly advise you not to cut it, because why would you want all that moisture to getaway!

The true stars of HOT-STAR are the 3 signature chickens, which is easy to find because they’re essentially the biggest ones in the menu. There’s the Original Large Fried Chicken which is arguably the crispiest of them all with light batter resulting in a thin and crispy outer shell.

The second one on the menu is the Crunchy Large Fried Chicken, made in the same manner using a different type of batter, this piece of chicken is more than just crispy – it’s crunchy and mouth-watering! But our Foodbuzz team strongly recommends that you don’t miss the BBQ Large Fried Chicken which is the original fried chicken drizzled with a masterfully crafted barbeque sauce. Made with the right frying technique, and balance of flavor in the sauce; this dish is a representation of good food done right, utilizing the right amount of salt, fat, acid, and heat!
