Knockout Chicken
Where? Knockout Chicken (Kensington Market, Toronto, Ontario, Canada) Map Menu
When? Monday August 22, 2022
Who? Me
Food Style? Fried Chicken
Summer is rapidly approaching its end in Toronto and it’s now dark when Tuesday night badminton finishes. It’s bloody warm though, so I take advantage of the weather and bike to Kensington Market, and today I’m in the mood for some fried chicken.
At Knockout Chicken, the menu is appropriately themed to the boxing ring, with chicken combos named featherweight, welterweight, heavyweight and cruiser weight. They also do chicken sandwiches, popcorn chicken, wings and chicken strips, all in theme as well. Best of all, they’re open until 10pm, so I’m well within time to grab a feed. They’re also halal and they source produce locally where possible.
Mains
Featherweight combo with bone in
Pretty decent sized meal, with fries and coleslaw. The buffalo sauce is the right level of spice for me, and has that nice acidic tanginess. The chicken is juicy and crispy, but doesn’t have a very intense flavour, like what you’d get with Korean fried chicken or even Jollibee. It’s not bad, I’ve just had better. I don’t think I can finish the fries though.
