Chimek

This is my local go-to place for Korean style wings.  Lots of beer on tap, crunchy and flavorful wings.

There are actually a few good options here in K-town Santa Clara but this one has been here a while.

I kind of like how Korean places will give you those disposable gloves so your fingers don’t get too messy while munching on wings.  Maybe not the most eco thing to do but it is convenient.

I also like the salad/bonchon bar.  You can fill up on their excellent kimchi and pickled radishes.

Besides beer, I usually get a couple flavors of wings and the kimchi pancake.

This place used to be open for lunch but it’s only open late now.  Being that during lunch I was usually the only one there, I can understand their business decision.  They also used to be open until 2 am (or so they claimed) but things have shifted since the pandemic.

The place also has a bunch of TVs everywhere so has that sports bar feel and is a good place to catch the game.
