More about the restaurant: Frying Colours
Korean food is often associated with the pungent pickled kimchi or mish-mash of bibimbap. Frying Colours – a not-so-politically correct reference to chef and own Min Hui’s less than perfect English diction – is a tribute to these styles, while also incorporating a few lesser known Korean favourites. The frying in the name of this Kensington, Melbourne restaurant could also refer to the chicken they serve, which is battered and dunked in oil before being coated in spicy or sweet soy sauce. The flame grill, usually placed on your table, is left to the experts to deal with, and they provide pork belly, fillet beef and marinated chicken thighs – or all at once, in the mixed grill – straight to your plate, accompanied by an array of sides in the traditional style. Get your mates together and set a course for Macauley Road in Kensington – that’ll be Macauley or South Kensington train station – for a proper Korean feed. Reserve your table now.

The fusion dishes at Frying Colours are a draw, but it is the traditional Korean delicacies that keep the foodies of Melbourne coming back time and again to Macaulay Road in Kensington.
