Located at the 3/F of Greenbelt 3, the newly-opened Samsam Chikin is a cozy café-kitchen that offers more than just the well-loved, crispy Korean fried chicken. It delivers a menu packed with both classic and innovative authentic Korean dishes and a strong coffee and cocktail selection which are perfect for food lovers, coffee enthusiasts, and K-culture fans alike.

Samsam Chikin

As casual as it may sound, the name Samsam Chikin carries a deeper meaning. “Sam Sam or Three Three (Sam in Korean translates to ‘three’) means 'Attractive, Gorgeous, and Fantastic,' and it represents the three beloved daughters of Mr. Sung Rah, the Happy Foods Group partner,” shared Kemberly Loja, marketing officer of Happy Foods Group of Restaurants (known for its acclaimed Korean dining establishments such as Sariwon Korean Barbecue, Soban K-Town Grill, and Sibyullee Unlimited Korean BBQ). This thoughtful touch adds a personal and sentimental charm to the brand, making it more than just a restaurant but a story of family and tradition brought to life through food.

Chikin Croissant Smash

For a lighter but equally indulgent option (if you are not a rice-for-breakfast kind of person), the Chikin Croissant Smash is a must-try. It’s a buttery, flaky croissant layers that’s pressed, transformed into a chewy bread-like consistency, and topped with a distinctly flavorful gochujang sauce.

The Metro team loved the Iced Dalgona Coffee, which balanced the rich coffee flavors with the light sweetness of the traditional Dalgona honeycomb. Another standout is the Iced Peach Ashotchu, a refreshing fruit-based drink that is also a great choice for those who enjoy something light and unique.
