Pelicana Chicken was founded 1982 in Daejeon, South Korea and has since expanded to over 3,000 stores globally. The menu features fried chicken in Korean-style sauces like sweet and spicy, spicy barbecue and honey garlic. They also feature fried donut cheese balls and twisted donuts. The restaurant frequently makes the list of top chicken spots in New York City.
The restaurant plans to expand to other Long Island locations if Plainview proves successful.
