![]() ![]() If you’re feeling a craving for some fried chicken, Boom Boom certainly isn’t a bad place to stop in and pick some up. But I think they were still a good side item to go with my baskets of wings. I probably should have asked for some ketchup on the side to help offset going from one fried item to the next. As far as French fries go, these were also pretty average. Some of the flats were a bit scarce on the meat, but I think quantity of wings helped to make up for that. It wasn’t too overpowering and gave the wings that nice sweet and spicy flavor. Between the original spicy Korean and lemon pepper rub, I think the spicy Korean sauce edges out the other. They were lightly breaded and fried to a nice golden brown, followed by a toss in the sauce or dry rub of your choice. I thought the wings themselves were actually pretty tasty. Not to mention that they were priced at $8 for the plate, I’ll definitely save my money next time. It seemed like they might have been frozen dumplings that were dropped right into the fryer. My first stop were the pork dumplings, which I thought were only average at best. Ten wings, six pork dumplings, and a full basket of fries was no joke my eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach in that instance. What I ended up with was probably more food than I should have eaten in just one sitting. Just to sample some more items off their menu, I also dropped an order for the pork dumplings as well. I went with one of each: original spicy Korean sauce for one half of the wings and lemon pepper dry rub on the other half. You’ve also got eight different flavors for the wings to choose from, both a mix of sauces and dry rubs. I was definitely feeling hungry that day, so the 10-piece wing combo really caught my eye. I’ve more recently converted over into the bone-in wing camp, more because of how much breading I’ve found to be on the boneless wings at other places. You have the choice of getting them either bone-in or boneless. Like the name might suggest, chicken is the main specialty of Boom Boom. Luckily, one group was just leaving as we finished placing our orders, so we swooped on in to grab the empty chairs. The place seemed to be pretty popular, as most of the dining tables were already taken up. ![]() However, it’s not before long that you get adjusted to it. One step into the restaurant and that fried food smell hits you almost immediately. One weekday after work, I stopped on in with some of my coworkers to see what the place was about. I was in the mood for some fried chicken, but didn’t feel like hitting up Popeye’s (although they are still really good). I found Boom Boom Chicken while scouting out the local restaurants on Google Maps. There’s still always going to be some local staples I hit up while in Palmdale (I’m looking at you, Q&Q Hawaiian BBQ), but I was looking to change things up this past trip. Whenever I’m out on business travel, it definitely provides me a good opportunity to branch out and try new restaurants. I love it so much I went to check out the other location in Rutherford the next day with some of my other friends.ADDRESS: 827 West Palmdale Boulevard, Palmdale, CA 93551 What I really like about this chicken is it isn't greasy and doesn't leave you feeling sluggish after eating it. All the chicken is served with pickled radish which tasted like coleslaw to me and really helped to relieve the spiciness of the chicken. The fries were some of the best I have ever had, crispy and amazing. The sauce on the chicken is addictive with a sweet and salty flavor really coming through, the chicken was fried to perfection and amazingly juicy. We grabbed a table, some hot sauce, drinks and got down and dirty in these sticky wings. After about 15 mins we walked back to boom boom and our chicken was ready. The chicken takes about 20 mins to cook because everything is fresh and made to order so we walked around the area and stopped in at some bakeries. For my first time coming here I let my friend order us up some deliciousness and we ended up getting the A large which is the fried chicken combo with wings, drumsticks and arms and we got the half and half (spicy and mild), and a order of large fries. We arrived inside where the girl at the counter knew my friend Christina from how many times she comes here. Parking can be a little tricky around here but there are plenty of parking meters on the side streets. We drove to Fort Lee and found parking on one of the side streets. Seriously I can't decide weather or not I love or hate my friend Christina for taking me here because I am absolutely addicted to this fried chicken I think about it all the time like a long lost lover. and its in the form of Korean Fried Chicken!
