Seoul Bird Canary Wharf

I’ve not had a great deal of Korean food apart from the BBQ cook at the table experience but this is a welcome change from other Asian cuisine. The chicken was very tender and went along well with the sauces. The Wrap was very full with lots of fresh salad . Nice relaxing atmosphere with Korean themed decor and able to cater for small and large parties. East to order and not long to wait for the culinary delight .

Thought let’s try this place, fancied some Korean Fried Chicken. We were told everything except the Dumplings were Halal. The food was OK…. I was quite disappointed with the size of the wings on our visit (they were quite small, for the price paid). I also got fried chicken thighs, that was ok. One of the 3 chicken thighs was incredibly chewy and filled with oil. So left that out. Loaded chips was good, enough to share with someone. My friend got the burger and mac and cheese. He enjoyed the burger but was quite disappointed with the Kimchi Mac and Cheese. I got the Lotus Biscoff Milkshake, really enjoyed that. I think the sharing platters work out to be more value for money. Also get a mixture of the sauces available. Plenty of seating available inside. Good service overall and the food came out pretty fast.

What a chance find for me. I generally do not go to this end of canary wharf. This restaurant was at one end of the corridor. There was a young man at the entrance to the restaurant who handed me the menu, and on request, explained about some of the choices that seemed interesting. I then went into the restaurant at the far end to where there was a cheerful smiling member of staff name Ali served me. After discussing what I was considering with Ali's assistance, I ordered and paid for the Seoul Bowl - Rice and salad, Korean grilled chicken and Spicy Gochujang dip. I then went and sat at one of the very long and deep tables adjacent to the Serving area. It was not long before my ticket number was called out and I collected my tray. The first things that I was extremely surprised and happy about was the size of the bowl, creatively laid out with the grilled chicken topped with sliced red chilli, rice, mayonnaise less coleslaw, white radish and lettuce. I tucked into it and loved every morsel. I intermixed the Spicy Gochujang sauce that came in a very small sealed container with the food as I went through it. The only thing that I would liked to have seen was a little bit of a sauce/gravy to slightly wet the rice. I also really loved the passion fruit cooler that Ali brought over, so thank to for that extra touch. To summarise, I have found a great place that serves food that I like and is generous with its helpings so you leave there full and satisfied. I will definitely add this to my Canary Wharf must go to places and next time I will try the spicier sauce and the fried chicken version. I am attaching some photographs for your perusal.
