Lamenting the lack of Korean restaurants offering their favourite comfort food combination of Korean fried chicken and beer, four Monash University mates re-grouped ten years after completing their studies to bring their idea of what a casual Korean chicken and beer restaurant should be to the market.
Since launching in Melbourne in 2006, Gami Chicken has launched 38 casual dining restaurants across Australia and served more than 60 million pieces of delicious chicken. The company will be opening their 39th restaurant in Oran Park in western Sydney in late January.
While each restaurant serves high-quality traditional Korean family recipes mixed with a dash of Melbourne Laneway culture, these menu items were skewed towards traditional Korean fried chicken favourites designed to be shared with friends over ice-cold beers.
“Gami Chicken has gradually introduced individual menu items such as Bibimbap, Kkochi Salad, Gochujang Chicken, and a Gami Bowl to the menu, providing guests with a healthier, wider taste of Korea,” said Jun Lee, Executive Director of Gami Chicken and Beer. “Some of our individual menu choices offer healthier alternatives, without moving too far away from our Korean influences.”
Gami Chicken’s famed chicken and beer combo is not everyone’s preferred lunch, and their healthier Korean individual menu items have seen sales growth of 172% from June 2023 to December 2023. Total sales of their individual bargain delights menu items have increased 152% from June 2023 to December 2023.
Continuing its commitment to menu development, Gami Chicken intends to showcase its newest menu update before the middle of the year, again offering a delicious, healthier option to its menu.
