Korean staples, such as fried chicken, rice dishes and noodles, served in a chill, wood-clad space.
"Yes, you saw some fabulous Barbara Hepworth sculptures, but this crispy chicken doused in a honey mustard sauce and topped with a small mountain of thinly sliced spring onion is worthy of being admired too. Daebak is one of those excellent little places where locals pop in for a takeaway spicy pork and egg bibimbap and groups order fried udon. But if you only have one dish at this Korean spot, get the fried chicken. It’s well worth the 15-minute walk from the Tate." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Sinead Cranna
"Daebak, a laid-back Korean spot on Kennington Lane, is one of those excellent little spots where you’ll find locals popping in for a takeaway spicy pork and egg bibimbap, a group ordering fried udon in their trackies, and a couple sharing three different types of Korean fried chicken, all on a Tuesday afternoon. The menu has everything from chicken yakitori, to beef bulgogi. While that’s all well and good, the KFC is why you’re here, specifically the pa dak. The crispy chicken is doused in a honey mustard sauce, and topped with a small mountain of thinly sliced spring onion. It’s crispy, sweet, salty, and has a slight kick from the onion." - Rianne Shlebak
