The opening date for a Korean Fried Chicken restaurant in Worcester has been pushed from Oct. 29 to Nov. 6, a spokesperson for the company confirmed.

Bonchon Chicken, at 81 Gold Star Blvd., was supposed to open on Oct. 29. The opening date was changed due to permitting delays, the spokesperson told MassLive Thursday.
