Bonchon and Noori to Open Korean Fried Chicken Restaurants in Detroit | Eater Detroit

"Opening its first Michigan outpost in Farmington Hills in October 2021, this South Korean-born chain (founded in 2002, expanded to the U.S. in 2006 and now with 110+ U.S. locations) arrives as one of five planned Michigan locations; a local franchise team secured a lease at the Orchard Lake Road address and another metro-Detroit site was expected the following year. The brand’s name translates to “my hometown” in Korean, and it’s known for Korean-style fried chicken: smaller birds with a thin potato-starch crust that’s double-fried for extra crisp, often finished by brushing wings and drumettes with a pungent, sticky soy-garlic glaze or spicy-sweet gochujang; pickled daikon is typically served alongside and customers should be ready with extra napkins and hand wipes." - Monica Williams
