The 9 Best Korean Fried Chicken Spots In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Of all the big Korean chicken franchises—Kyochon, Bb.q Chicken, Pelicana, etc.—CM Chicken, short for Choong Man Chicken, flies most under the radar. Despite having 50+ locations across the country, the only local branch of this causal pub is in Gardena, but even if you're not in the South Bay, their unique Snow Onion Chicken is worth a trip. Hulking pieces of bone-in chicken are topped with a huge mound of shaved raw onion, and then smothered in a sweet coleslaw-esque sauce. It's crunchy, pungent, creamy, and a total glorious mess—if we're feeling especially decadent, get the Hot Red Snow, which adds a searing glaze to the chicken before its sweet onion bath." - cathy park, brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
