Fried chicken restaurants in paris

Paris, capital of gastronomy, continues to surprise street food lovers. Among the guilty pleasures that tantalize the taste buds, fried chicken is an absolute must, and can be adapted to an infinite number of cultures. In this guide, we take you to the best Parisian addresses where you can enjoy this golden, crispy specialty in all its variations.

From Korean fried chicken, coated in an ultra-crispy breading and lacquered with a sweet-spicy sauce, to American fried chicken, juicy, generous and served with comforting sides, every bite transports you elsewhere. Then there's Jamaican flavors, with the famous jerk chicken, marinated for a long time in a blend of Caribbean spices and fried over an open flame. And let's not forget the lighter Asian versions, where the chicken is often accompanied by tangy sauces, sesame seeds or fresh herbs.
