There are a few Hot Star Large Fried Chicken stores in the city, which are mainly concentrated around Melbourne Central. As they are always accompanied by a Gong Cha store and open until late, Hot Star is a popular destination for those who are finishing off a night out and need a quick bite to eat.

The preparation
Large fried chicken $8.50
The chicken is fried to order so it comes out piping hot and juicy. They also give you the choice of having spice added to the chicken after frying which adds a nice flavour touch. I personally have always added spice to it as I feel like the batter and crumb coating has an unpleasant flavour to it.
I come here occasionally when I am in need of hot food after a long night out, as it is fast and hot food, but for those with a little more time on there hands, there are many other places in the city to visit.
