Gol Tong Chicken
15 Restaurants That'll Make You Fall In Love With LA Again - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Lots of filmmakers come to LA with Hollywood dreams. But only one of them opened a fried chicken shop instead. Gol Tong is run by an ex-horror film director from Korea who taught himself how to make fried chicken from a TV show. The result is unlike anything in the city: crispy, saucy twice-fried KFC topped with like diced peppers, golden kiwis, pineapple, tomatoes, blueberries, and green grapes that add bursts of freshness and make the platter look like a patchwork quilt. The one-man shop has walls of posters from movies he’s directed, and if you ask nicely, he’ll probably share a story or two as you dig into a glistening pile of sweet and sticky chicken." - brant cox, garrett snyder, jess basser sanders, nikko duren, sylvio martins, cathy park
