"There are dozens of Southern-style fish fry spots across South LA, but the one that’s at the top of our cornmeal-crusted list is CW & Chris Fish & Chicken. This no-frills takeout spot offers a whole ocean of options—sanddabs, scallops, sole, and so on— dredged and fried to order. The crust is well-seasoned and crispy, while the fish stays tender and flaky inside. Meals come with sides of things like hush puppies, collard greens, coleslaw, or fries. And in case you forgot the second half of their name, they do great fried chicken and buffalo wings here, too. " - nikko duren, garrett snyder
