"Bok a Bok’s walk-up takeout window on Capitol Hill is nearly impossible to miss. There’s the huge neon arrow with a chicken head pointing to the window, and there’s the beckoning aroma of fresh Korean fried chicken, which will have passersby floating in like a Looney Toons cartoon. Bok a Bok offers fried chicken three ways: strips, boneless thighs, and bone-in wings—all with seven different seasoning combos and eight sauces. That’s already 168 unique chicken combinations without even mentioning their chicken sandwiches and kimchi mac and cheese! It’s no surprise this spot earned Guy Fieri’s cosign on a 2018 episode of Food Network’s Diner’s, Drive-Ins, and Dives. (Bok a Bok closed a couple locations in 2024, but the Capitol Hill one is still going strong.)" - Joey Carreon
