    Albeit a popular appetizer, chicken wings soon propelled themselves into becoming mains. Once you've tasted a good chicken wing, it's not difficult to understand why some would gob down tenths of chicken wings in one serving. This is especially showcased in Kedai Kopi Lotus whereby the BBQ chicken wings are evidently the main star dish of the entire restaurant. Squeeze on some kaffir lime for some contrasting acidity in flavors.

    Supper, anyone?

    Tanjung Lipat Corner

    Love your wings grilled? So do we. At Tanjung Lipat Corner, patrons get the best out of the grill pits with the stall's gorgeous chicken wings (and drumsticks). Slightly charred, the marinade is primarily soy and garlic. Simple yet delectable, many frequent goers fail to resist the temptations of these brilliant goodies all the time.

    Tips

    Dip that wing into that chili sauce for the extra hot kick.

    Nothing beats a great meal rather than finger lickin' good chicken wings paired with a scenic view. That's what you get at Tanjung Aru Beach. Look out for that chicken wing stall which has long queues (if you're lucky, there might be less crowd) because those people clearly line up for a reason: Good Food. The beach itself is a gorgeous view already but when accompanied by mother nature's glorious sunset, the scenery is next level. 

    Tips

    Sunset hours are always crowded with people.

    Things to expect

    A not-so-clean beach (but great sea view)

    Can't leave your rice behind? In Malaysian culture, it's not unusual to want to eat everything with rice. At Nasi Katok, that's what you get. Pair your delicious fried chicken (wings) with rice and sauce. Brought in from Brunei, this dish is a must-try especially for non-locals as you definitely can't find nasi katok in the West.

    Tips

    Cash terms only.

    Things to expect

    Simple yet palatable.

    Nasi Embak serves a very simple dish yet it keeps the restaurant going strong after all these years. Fried chicken and rice may seem like an odd combo to some but that is probably because you have not tried Nasi Embak at Kedai Runcit Salmin. The location of this eatery is slightly away from the bustling city but yet, crowds pour in. Most customers are frequent ones who return time after time as there is no other better nasi embak in the area.

    BBQ Korean Chicken RestaurantPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Just looking at these glorious Korean Fried Chicken is painful to my tastebuds. BBQ Korean Chicken makes some of the best KFC in Kota Kinabalu, hands down. We especially love the chicken wings because let's face it - wings are the bomb. Nonetheless, the real win factor of this restaurant is simply in its amazing sauces and marinade that really elevate regular chicken to the highest level of satisfaction.

    Tips

    Located in Imago.

    Things to expect

    Fried rice, chicken burger, etc.
