Home > Restaurants > Chicken > Restaurant Forte Baden Baden

This much-hyped fried chicken dive in the heart of Koreatown is all that and a bag of chips, fries in this case, which rival some of city's top pommes frites on the important crunch scale. But Baden Baden is known for the chicken, served in both regular and large portions--stick with the bigger $18.95 plate and split it two ways, three if you dare to order extra dishes like the inexplicable Mexican Salad (mixed apple, ham, raisin, boiled egg white and cucumber, all mixed together with mayo).

The chicken is both moist (from the rotisserie) and crunchy (from the deep fry) and is served with the legs/wings off and quartered--the perfect prep for dipping chunks into the house hot sauce (a striking resemblance to Frank's RedHot which is a good call). Wash it all down with pitchers of Bud Light (or a Lychee Soju punch) while Top-40 hip hop blasts through the room, which resembles a Harford T.G.I. Friday's (beer posters and neon sign galore), less the heavy-set white people of course.
