Kiwi-born Chef Morgan McGlone ditched fine dining in Sydney and moved to Nashville Tennessee, where he discovered the delights of real Nashville-style hot chicken. Crunchy and blazing hot on the outside, tender and bursting with flavour on the inside.
He’s bringing that goodness to Barangaroo, along with natural wine, cold local beers and a cracking soundtrack at Sydney’s best fried chicken restaurant.
Fried chicken seems simple, but making it like this takes time and skill. No one does it better than Belles.
Chicken here comes in a few shapes and sizes like wings, drumsticks, tenders and cauliflower for the vegetarians. Spice levels go from chicken salt, to ‘really f**kin hot’.
The Spicy Chicken Sandwich is the stuff of legends, with spicy chicken, a milk bun, lettuce, good-good sauce and plenty of cheese. Or if you’re hungry go for a Belles Bucket, which includes 16 wings prepared to your choice of spice level plus four sides, two sauces and one good time.
Belles Hot Chicken is almost as famous for its great soundtrack and delicious drinks list as they are for their chicken. There’s a range of refreshing drops, from local craft beers like Balter XPA, to natural wine from fresh Aussie Vintners and creative slushy cocktails.
