Crunchik’n

Korean$-$$

Founded by a South Korean-born theology professor turned chef and his health specialist daughter, this Center City snack house aims to bring Korean favorites to a wider audience. Crunchik’n specializes in tasty twice-fried Korean fried chicken as well as oven-baked Korean chicken, rice bowls, dumplings, fresh fruit drinks, and an arancini-like rice ball they call the Crunch Ball. You can still stop by the original location as well, on the boardwalk in Ocean City.
