WHILE turkey may be the bird of choice for most this Christmas, Flesh & Buns are offering a tasty alternative with the return of their famous JFC (Japanese Fried Chicken) Festive Feasting Basket, available until December 24.
The JFC Festive Feasting Basket
Since KFC’s arrival in Japan in 1974, branding itself as “Kentucky for Christmas”, tucking into a bucket of KFC has become a Christmas tradition celebrated by over 3.6 million people in Japan every year. Inspired by this phenomenon, founder of Flesh & Buns Ross Shonhan has decided to bring a taste of Japan back home – with a gourmet twist.
The Chocolate Nikka Whisky Cake
Customers will be treated to the foodie version of a chicken bucket with a delicious steamer basket of half a buttermilk and shichimi fried chicken with BBQ mayonnaise, accompanied by a green salad and Flesh & Bun’s famous gua bao buns. The festive set menu for two also includes an indulgent chocolate Nikka whisky cake, washed down with a luscious Nagasaki whisky shake, made of shisho leaf ice cream, Buffalo Trace bourbon and banana liquor. With a spread this tempting, we might be reconsidering our default Christmas turkey.
