Bon Chon Opens in Cambridge's Harvard Square

A group of Korean fried chicken franchises with a location in Allston now has a second outlet in the Boston area, with this one being in one of the busiest sections of Cambridge.

According to a poster on the Chowhound site (and confirmed on Yelp), Bon Chon is now open in The Galleria on JFK Street in Harvard Square. As is the case with the location on Brighton Avenue in Allston, the Cambridge branch offers fried wings, drumsticks, and strips, with soy sauce and hot sauce being the two options for the chicken. Other items available at Bon Chon include soups, salads, sushi, and Korean items such as bulgogi, kimchi, and bibimbob.

Bon Chon has restaurants around the world, including in Korea, the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore. In addition to Cambridge and Allston, branches in the United States can be found in California, New Jersey, New York, and Virginia.

The address for this new Asian spot in Harvard Square is: Bon Chon, 57 JFK Street, Cambridge, MA, 02138. The website for the group of restaurants can be found at: http://www.bonchon.com/
