True to its name, Burger King makes sure to always bring home the crown when it comes to great food.
Known for its iconic flame-grilled Whopper perfect for burger enthusiasts and plant-based meals for those who are into veggies, the fastfood chain has proved once again that when it comes to expanding its menu, it will always go an extra mile.
In a dinner hosted by Burger King Philippines at its Ortigas Roosevelt store, select guests and VIPs celebrated the much-awaited arrival of the newest chicken sandwich royalty in town—the Chicken King.
“We are delighted that Chicken King is finally here in the Philippines and it’s ready to rule the taste buds of every Filipino,” said John Velasco, Country General Manager of Burger King Philippines.
Fit for kings and queens, Burger King aims to provide every chicken lover with the royal treatment that Chicken King has to offer.
“Fans of chicken sandwiches can now indulge in Burger King’s Chicken King where they’ll feel like royalty with every bite,” he added.
The newest offering shows off bold flavors and hefty portions that will surely fulfill the desires of its discerning audience, making it worthy of its title “king.”
“All our guests, who are the real kings, deserve to be treated like royalty which is why we went all out with perfecting the Chicken King to suit the Filipino’s taste buds, allowing them to indulge and satisfy their kingly cravings with bold flavors coupled with bolder portions,” explained Velasco.
The anatomy of Chicken King is composed of the bread, the chicken, the dressing, and of course, the vegetables.
Chicken King boasts of golden whole muscle chicken thigh that is incredibly meaty, juicy, and flavorful. It is marinated in various spices long enough to give the meat irresistible bold flavors and cooked to golden brown perfection for a mouthful of crispy goodness.
The thick, golden chicken thigh is wrapped with juicy tomato and crispy lettuce that bring out the freshness and topped with smooth and creamy mayonnaise dressing.
And last but not the least, the sandwich uses not just ordinary buns but buttery potato buns that give off a unique and satisfying “melt-in-your-mouth” sensation.
Since it was launched in the market, the food chain announced that Chicken King was sold out in a mere two weeks.
“In fact, we didn’t expect for it to be this big of a hit. We were astounded by the warm reception that Filipinos have given Chicken King when it first became available in our restaurants, resulting in our limited stocks for the next few weeks,” Velasco said.
Make sure to get your hands on this royal goodness to satisfy your royal cravings! Chicken King is currently available in all Mega Manila, Pampanga, Rizal, Cavite, Laguna, and Bulacan Burger King stores.
