¿Bon Chon?
September 29th, 2009 @ 9:47 pm

Today, since our Geology lab professor canceled class, Ricky & I decided to meet up for lunch. He’s never had Bon Chon Chicken before, so I decided to help him pop his Bon Chon cherry. I guess I’ve posted a lot about me eating Bon Chon but never fully explained it. Bon Chon is basically a Korean chain restaurant of the best fried chicken that will ever touch your tongues (at least in my opinion). There are a bunch up in the New York/New Jersey area & one located here in Virginia. Its fried chicken like you’ve never had before. Gaaah, mouth is just drooling thinking about it. The flavors are soy garlic (mild) & spicy and they’re served with pickled radishes. To be honest, I don’t really think I can explain the awesomeness in words, so I’m going to stop.



The chicken.


The culprits.


Afterwards, he had to drop by his house to pick up envelopes for FCA and I invited myself in. His little sister was there (little as in senior in high school) and she is just so adorable! She has super edgy/cute short hair, pale skin, and the most amazing Hello Kitty collection ever. It put me in shame. Shame shame shame. I would trade my sister for Ricky’s sister any day. We share love for Hello Kitty & I think its funnier if he gets bullied by Trang than me. Jay kay, jay kay. Or am I ;D? But as typical Asian families go, his parents & sister think we are dating D:~ Isn’t it slightly typical that if a son brings a girl home, the parents are like, “ZOMGAH! DAT ISH GIRLFRAN, YES? WEN YOU GET THE MARRIED?! GRANDKIDS?” But if a daughter brings a guy home, the parents are like, “ZOMGAH. NO BOYFRAN FOR YOOH/HE GONNA RAPE YOU/YOU ARE SLUT!” But yes, I would like to emphasize that Ricky & I are just good friends :) .

Aside from that, I’ve been really obsessed/intrigued with Vietnamese pop culture lately thanks to Viet Channel I know, getting back to my roots. I really wanna go back to the mother land ;____;~ I’ve been watching a few trailers for Vietnamese movies.

JOHNNY TRI IS SO HOT :O
SO MANY JUMP KICKS, LOL!!!


I’m sad that Passport to Love isn’t being released in the D.C. area since there is a high amount of Vietnamese people hurrs, but I guess all the Viet people here are kinda old and lame. I know they’re showing it in parts of California and Texas, so if you go, please let me know how it is! I wanted to buy it, but cannot find anywhere & I don’t think the Vietnamese DVD stores would carry something that’s not Paris by Night :shivers: Its also a huge shock to me how good these trailers are cause I thought that the only Vietnamese movies that existed were the ones that depicted ancient China life or something (HAHA! I am so closed off from the real world, I know) But aside from that, I am trying to learn how to read Vietnamese slowly by sounding out words on Zing.vn. So far its been total fail.

i am vietnamese · something fun

  • The Korean fried chicken place in WA doesn't compare to Bon Chon. Yeah, you called me out D: Chicken was very good. Should've ate it for the entire week :o
