San Francisco Dish of the Month July 2012: Asian Fried Chicken

Yeah, I don't know if I'd call it fusion in a traditional sense (is that an oxymoron?). I've tried a couple of their sandwiches too and I like the flavors, but it didn't strike me as a deliberate fusion. IMO, they seem to be putting together ingredients and combos that complement one another and above else, tastes good. Bottom line is, they fry up some darn good chicken!!

San Francisco Dish of the Month July 2012: Asian Fried Chicken

My absolute favorite fried chicken is from the ArKi Truck and it happens to have an Asian flair to it! Perfectly crispy skin, with a darker than normal color to it. Extremely juicy and flavorful! I can't figure out the seasonings, but it's definitely Asian in it's DNA. What's cool about it too is when I get the chicken and donut combo there, the sweetness from the donut melds with the chicken causing this great melding of contrasting savory/sweet flavors. Delicious! I caught them in Marin at the OTG event in Larkspur, but I think they're usually downtown on Battery St a couple of times a week too and elsewhere in the Bay Area if you want to check them out.
