Had the Korean sweet chilli flavoured wings, they are CRISPY and super saucy. The guy was super generous with the portions. Amazing! Would highly recommend.

The food stand offers incredibly delicious food that one could enjoy day after day without getting tired of it.
Their fried chicken, in particular, stands out as a delightful departure from what you'd find in other establishments, even in comparison to popular chains like K*C.
That said, it's worth noting that their original beverages fall short in comparison to the excellence of their food offerings.

A good place for some lunch takeaway/ afternoon snacks with heaps of options.
The Chicken Bites were flavoursome and super crispy.
The Kumara fries were yummmm, well fried and coated with sugar.
Pork prawn and chive dumplings were juicy and tasty.
Overall happy with everything ordered. The wait wasn’t too bad and staff was alright.

For some reason held back from going here despite walking past it almost every day which I regret. The wait took awhile despite it being at off peak hours but it’s definitely worth the wait. I had a go at tasting the chicken bites deluxe and the 101 Bao bun. Both were incredibly tasty and well-priced. For the chicken bites I highly suggest pairing it with Peri peri as it added a small hit of spice at the end which made it extra savoury 😋. The bao bun was okay and the pork belly itself that was put inside was pretty dry from my experience. I would still suggest giving Kai eatery a try at least once or twice if you happen to walk past! I’m keen on returning again on the walk back to uni 👍

The chicken bites were juicy, and right heat. That’s the fried chicken which I love. The traditional Taiwanese fried chicken is my favorite.

Service was quick and straightforward. The XL Chicken flavours were tasty and perfectly spicy for me. I give it a 4 because the chicken was crispy on top but bit soggy on the other side due to oil not being dripped off the chicken completely.

It’s a solid 4.5 stars. The chicken bites delux was delicious and portion was generous.
Lost 0.5 stars because of the service ... I understood they were busy, but service still lacked a little. I also had to pay the paywave surcharge because they only place the machine behind the window for covid purposes I think ? It’s not the cheapest street food either but overall decent Taiwanese food.

I came by and got some takeaway. I had a bubble tea as well as the bento meal. I quite like their fried chicken. Nice flavours and really crispy. I wasn't a big fan of the pork belly since it was a bit dry. The food did have to travel a bit so that might have affected the quality.
It is a nice place to grab some food and/or drinks.

Awesome drink and food, authentic Taiwanese style, especially deep fried chicken fillet. Amazing.. Similar ones you buy in Sydney Asian eateries. Try it out. The only down side of this pop up Eatery is that there is a bit of wait during peak hours but nothing undercover, so cen be windy and cold if its not a sunny day.

Fried chicken spot run out of a permanent shipping container. There are always people but the wait is never long, staff is nice and cheerful, prices are accessible for most.
XL style fried chicken was great, had an almost cinnamon flavor, super juicy with good exterior crunch. The pork and chicken bao were also really good. Didn't try any of the teas but many people were getting them.
Highly recommended, near many of the universities, fast and easy, not expensive.
