Crunchik'n started when John, after retiring from teaching, set out to bring Korean fried chicken to American menus, and convinced Jen, then weighing a public health career, to build the business with him. The result is a menu centered on Korean fried chicken, wings, and corn dogs, developed over several years of recipe testing.
The wings come tossed in a range of sauces, from soy garlic to Korean bbq to a volcano option built for serious heat, and run smaller and denser than typical wings — closer to nuggets, which makes them easy to keep eating. The chicken sandwich has developed its own following alongside them.
Crunchik'n has grown from its original spot into multiple locations across Philadelphia and New Jersey.
