Sweet and spicy, this ain't the Colonel's KFC. Between winter weather and the pandemic, the world can feel pretty small right now. That’s why we started The Dish, a weekly look at a single menu item from a Halifax restaurant. Whether it inspires you to dine in or take out, we hope to expand your eating horizons. The best KFC in town isn’t from a Colonel, but a hole-in-the-wall serving Korean chicken. submitted Chicken Combo from Backoos Korean Food, $11.99 Finger-lickin’ good had its heyday, but if you haven’t tried the KFC–that’s Korean fried chicken–at Backoos, you’re missing out on one of the best to-go meals in town. Served with rice and a couple dumplings, the chicken combo is reliable for any weekday lunch, quick dinner or late-night snack. We recommend the sweet spicy sauce option for the hearty portion of boneless fried chicken “bites” at the heart of this meal.
