"When the world-renowned, award-winning New Orleans eatery first decided to expand outside Louisiana, it found a willing home along Lincoln Boulevard in Venice. Angelenos, meanwhile, got world-class fried chicken and other Big Easy delicacies. The chicken is a must here, of course, but there are gems throughout the menu, including the pan brussels sprouts and the gumbo. And Willie Mae’s serving sizes are easy to share among the entire party." - Robert Spuhler
