It has been sometime since I have spotted NeNe Chicken and wanting to try it out. At last, found a chance to lunch there on a Sunday noon. NeNe Chicken is indeed authentic Korean fried chicken, originated from South Korea, Seoul since 1999. You might find it awkward to pronounce its shop name, but don't think in that direction! Ne Ne means "yes yes" in Korean! YES!!
For what I know, Star Vista outlet is the only outlet in Singapore at the moment.

Patronising for the first time, we asked the service staff direct for its more popular choices by customers. So he recommended the Top 3 Popular choices are (in random ranking) :-
- Freaking Hot
- Bulgogi
- Green Onion
Our set meal cost $9.90 each. Quite worthwhile for money given that the chicken serving were substantial and filling. Each set comes with a small packet of fries, a soft drink, and either coleslaw/pickled radish.
(Was playing around with my camera settings for special effect, so the colour tone is different than usual.)

Green Onion Tenders (boneless) - Real crispy chicken tenders drizzled with their subtle concoction of a sweet-savoury sauce and tinge of lemon juice, and finished the look with alot of shredded green onions on top. *1 thumb up!*
I am not a fan of having green onions in my food (be it cooked or as garnish), thus did not order this item and I am sorry! For those of you who are like me, can simply brush those green onions shreds aside and indulge in this super crispy tenders. Rest assure there wasn't prominent stink of raw onions or whatsoever.

Black Sesame Tenders (boneless) - VERY different from any sauced/fried chicken I have ever tried. The special-blended sesame sauce coated every inch of the chicken tenders. Not exactly soggy, at the same time you can still taste the crispy portions in the fried tenders while eating it hot. The black sesame sauce was more on the sweeter side and a little marshy in texture, which I believe this is how the sauce can cling onto the tenders.
A little con here, the tenders were too big in size with only a mini fork given, it wasn't that easy to just bite through it (of cos' not to mention your teeth will be stuck with the black sesame remains after the meal!). Would have been better if it comes in bite-size.

I exceptionally like their fries and pickled radish! The fries were very similar to the A&W type of curly fries, except it is in the straight shape and form of normal fries. While the pickled radish were fresh, crunchy and carried slight sourness that appetite you more.
Took away 8-pc Bulgogi Chicken Wings ($8.90) for our parents to try out. The wings were flavourful with its marinated sauce and sesame sprinkled over it, but pity not meaty enough. I can't use this to compare with 4Fingers for it would not be a fair comparison. This wings are marinated with soy sauce gravy, instead of deep-fried, thus I can't compare apple to apple.
As I have yet to try out the Freaking Hot and other fried wings..Got to go back for more and not forgetting the new experience of eating wings using disposable glove!
