Flying Tong serves up casual Korean dude food in a tiny, minimalist space. The menu is limited with few vegetarian options. General consensus at the table was that the food was very average and not worth facing the Newtown parking nightmare for. Prices are high yet portions are small. In fact, some of us ended up having a second dinner elsewhere to fill up. I did enjoy the chicken tacos with the corn tortilla adding a new flavour dimension to the gochujang marinated chicken. The fried chicken had a thicker batter than other Korean fried chickens I've had. Of the varieties we tried, my favourite was the Spicy Bomb which had a real chilli kick. Not for those with delicate tastebuds.
Really wanted to try this place. The food was just ok, but will we ever be back?? When I say to my self, I really feel like hot chips coated in a sweet soy mayonnaise sauce with shredded beef, fried chicken so hot I need to leave my tongue in my water (and I am normally a chili LOVER), then I'll think of this place. But then, that's probably not likely really. Be aware, $8 per bottle corkage and small portions....you'll also be in and out in 3O mins as the place is small and they need your table....while they are still in their honey moon period that is.
Nothing spectacular. For a place that does "chicken and beer" there is very little chicken and beer. Comparing to the rest of Newtown if you are looking for chicken and beer you're better off trekking further down towards the city to find a better place. Price is a bit steep considering the amount of food you get. 4 pieces of chicken for ~$20. Food was done quite nicely at least so that's a plus.
Food presentation was pretty, service was nice and atmosphere was pleasant. It was nice to try, but I won't be back - I certainly wouldn't queue to get in. The chips were amazing, the rest of the food was ok. I'm fried chicken fan, but this was too greasy for me and the condiments were not suited to the meals they were served with.
