Always amazing Korean fried chicken wings at this place. Favourite is definitely the original with no sauce. The rice cake seems extra spicy tonight but delicious nonetheless. Always a delicious meal here! Love!

The Korean fried chicken and beer đđșculture is frequently merging in kpop series! It's the hottest food item portrayed in these super star series!đ I had to emerge myself in this culture and hook myself up with some crispy fried chickenđ and beer đș!đ
Home of hot taste is known for their crispy fried chicken and wings! Knowing that, I opted for the original fried chicken with sweet hot sauce and crispy fries. The chicken is made fresh so there is about a 20 min wait time which I don't mind because it's made fresh and the chicken comes to your table pipping hot! The chicken was simply delicious. There isn't a load of spices or seasoning but super crispy and juicy. It also comes with coarse salt on the side, for sesoning. I also ordered sweet hot sauce. From other reviewers I was told the sauce is super hot and that was primarily the reason I wanted to try it because I absolutely adore spiciness. But I was disappointed as it was somewhat odd tasting, overtly sweet and bland.đ Next time I will definitely skip the sauce. I loved the chicken and fries however, much -much-much better than Kernel Sander's fried chicken I'm afraid (strictly my personal opinion of course). đ! I'll be back for more fried chicken soon and continue to engage myself in the Korean pop culture. Love it!đâ€đ

We were served some salad and pickled turnips which were perfect to tone down the heat. I personally wouldnât really call it Ban Chan as it didnât seem quite complete, but anywayâŠ
Our Blazing Fire chicken arrived on a hot plateâa good serving for about 2-3 people ($15.99 each order). Sweet and very spicy sauce generously covered boneless dark and white meat. Some roasted seaweed topped the dish. It was quite goodâthe meat was tender and juicy. The sauce had us asking for another pitcher of water!

The Oyster Kimchi rice was also good. The rice was well-cooked, neither soggy nor hard to the bite. I could hardly see any oysters, though. Also, the sauce of the Blazing Fire chicken drowned out any heat the kimchi rice might have had. (I would suggest white rice for the Blazing Fire chicken). I donât think I would do the kimchi rice justice by describing it now.Â
What hubby and I did enjoy more was what we ordered for the kidsâthe Original Crispy chicken. Well, we came looking for KFC right? We got a half chicken. It was a bit on the pricey side at $8.99, especially when the pieces were not very big. However, the crispy skin won me over, so I will overlook that for now. The chicken is fried twice which makes it extra crispy, each bite having a crunch! The meat is tender and flavourful. We have realized that this fried chicken is definitely something we will be craving forâin the very near future! And while there is some salt-herb mix you can dip your chicken into, a good gravy would definitely work well!
Love this place for its cheap food and cheap drinks. A hidden gem. The only downside was that i ordered a half chicken once and it had chicken hair on it. I order chicken wings now instead. Also another downside, the batter last time was inconsistent. They might be changing their batter but i would recommend they keep the original version since it was more crunchy.
Everything is Hot at Home of Hot Taste!
I was kind of expecting the Chicken Wings be sinfully crispy but not happening this afternoon. They were kind of smallish but were quite tasty. The sauce was quite interesting as it has this spiciness with a hint of sweetness. The fried rice though was really oily with not much flavours, I wish they were drowned in some hot sauce.
I think I need to come back and just eat a half crispy skin fried chicken........... and extra HOT please!
One thing I had observed during my both visits, This place is extremely well staffed. They provide plenty of attention to their food, ensure waters are refills without the guests raising their hands half the time. The place was clean, Their washrooms were clean. Food was excellent! I would give this place 4.5 out of 5.0. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys fried chicken and wants to try Korea's take on fried chicken. I am definitely planning to return to this Home of Hot Taste sometime. To those who can take more heat than Popeyes Chicken in Spicy, this is a place for you to go.
I ordered the Spicy Oyster Soup ($10). My order came with salad and pickled radish. I was also provided with a raw egg to put into my boiling pot of soup when it arrived. The appearance of my soup was very appealing and it had the taste to match. Ingredients included calamari, shrimp, oysters, vegetables, rice, and more. A delicious blend of flavours that will warm your belly!
Home of Hot Taste is located in uptown Toronto (north of Steeles), and hands down they have the best KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) in town. Â Initially, we went there out of curiosity and comments that others have made about this restaurant, but after the first visit, we know Home of Hot Taste will become one of our go to restaurants.
One of the best k food north of Steeles. Must try fire chicken, fusion egg, and steam chicken with veggies (for the health conscious). Pleasantly surprised. Recommended.

A month before our wedding, I was hit with a huge craving for KFC (Korean Fried Chicken). Fried chicken wasn't really part of "wedding diet", but my appetite is stronger than my self control. It helps (or not) that The Hubby also can't resist fried goodness. So we drove up to Home of Hot Taste for a weekend dinner. For the two of us, we ordered a whole order of Original Fried Chicken with a side of Spicy, Sweet Sauce. I really wanted to try one of their Blazing Fire plates but the price and portion size wouldâve been too much food for two people, especially as The Hubby didnât want anything spicy.
I've been going here since 2012 and I still love this place. It has changed plenty over the past 10 years. The tteokbokki was spicy but bearable. I missed the past when it was crazy spicy but going forward I think more people can enjoy their dishes. The onion chicken is always amazing and their fire chicken with fried rice is perfect and simple.
Canât go wrong with egg soup! Nothing to pick on that. Came back here many times because their spicy KFC is amazing, always juicyyy. Also had their prinkle(cheese) chicken, really good as well but itâs powder so makes sense if the chicken is a tad bit drier than the spicy sauce one. Blazing cheese chicken (the plate) was dry, first time ordering and a bit too spicy for my taste, flavouring is good if the chicken pieces were more less dry. Otherwise, get their KFC!!
Always a favourite place for Korean fried chicken. Their website and menu prices are all very outdated. I couldnt scan the QR code at the restaurant. But their half/half chicken is now $30.99 as a reference for the whole chicken, their menu says $26.40
Home of Hot-Taste continues to be the most consistent fried chicken place. Snow chicken, blazing chicken, original fried chicken with bones, egg soup, everything is good. Social distancing measures in effect. Vaccination passport is required for dine in.
Menu has a big variety of things to try outside of fried chicken compared to other places. Friendly and quick service even when we went on a weekend night. Cool ambience and generally seemed clean and tables well separated.
Bf and I always try tteokbokki at places that serve it and we might have missed the indication that theirs is super spicy and it was probably one of the spiciest things I've ever eaten in my life (we almost died but it was worth powering through it lol) just a warning before ordering unless you like that stuff!
