Korean Fried Chicken in New Orleans

Today I went to Oppa Fried Chicken for dinner! It was on my list for a while and excited to finally try it. My family and I ordered the family combo, which gave us the opportunity to try 4 out of the 5 different flavors they had available. We were all obsessed with how crispy the chicken were and were full by the end of our meal! #ThingsToDo #lemon8challenge #neworleansfood #koreanfood #koreanfriedchicken
