South City Fried Chicken (New) - Downtown LA


Walk this way...


to Corporation Food Hall
in Downtown Los Angeles

for some


If you’ve never been to
Corporation Food Hall,
it’s like a mini Grand Central Market.


I got to sample some of 
South City’s menu items.

They have 8 fried chicken sandwiches,
ranging in Heat level.


Just look for the “Hot Juicy” Chicken
and you’re at the right place!


Owner Joshua Kopel
(The Colonel)
building a Louisville sample.


“Louisville”

A mini version of their full size sandwich,
with pepper jelly, bourbon barrel aged green hot and poblano butter on a buttermilk biscuit.


More food, more love!


Anyone for chicken littles?


Another Executive Chef,
Sammy Monsour,
delicious creation, the mini version.


Lots of fried chicken fans!


Memphis Juke Joint Fries

with Memphis rib rub, house smoked
chicken bacon, turbodog brown aged
cheese sauce, shaved jalapeño and cilantro.

Loved the chicken bacon!


Watermelon Cucumber Salad

with lime, mint, macadamia nuts, cilantro,
Thai basil, coconut and olive oil.


You don’t have to visit Hawaii
for a Dole Whip.

AND go through that maze to get one!

If you’ve ever been to the plantation, 
you know what I’m talking about...


Dole Whip
(mini version)

It’s vegan too!


Pick a Topping:
Coconut
Pecans
Chocolate 

I would’ve never thought to add these
toppings, but it was really good!


It was time to go...

The Chicken thanked us for visiting!

Another good place to eat in DTLA.

Sticking to What You Do Best...

Last week, I was invited to celebrate National Hamburger Day at The Counter in Studio City. I had been to The Counter before, but today was special and met a fellow tweeter who was a first timer. The menu is easy to follow and you actually build your own burger, well at least on paper. First you select the protein, then the cheese, other various toppings, a side sauce, and last is the type of bun you want. If you’re having a hard time deciding, don’t worry, they have signature burgers and sandwiches to choose from. Too many choices make me crazy sometimes. I get so confused when I see other restaurants trying to be everything to everyone. The food at these restaurants are usually horrible and thus end up closing. Would you be surprised if the pizza at a seafood restaurant wasn’t good? Doesn’t make sense to me. Attention Restaurant Owners: Pick something and do it really really well. In-n-Out hasn’t added anything to their menu in years and they’re still in business and GROWING! Being i

Stokes Purple® Wave Pie by Lauren Ko

Image
Getting stoked for the holidays can be delicious! I was invited to a Frieda’s  Specialty Produce event, featuring cookbook author, Lauren Ko. Her cookbook “Pieometry” is a wonderful book of pie recipes  and techniques that even a baking novice like me can do to make incredible  looking pies to impress my friends  and family. But First, a little bit about Frieda’s… I’m familiar that Frieda’s is a specialty produce  company, but I didn’t know that Frieda was the  first to introduce Chinese Gooseberry to the U.S. in 1962.  (before my time) After changing the name to Kiwifruit, the item took off! (Did you know?  I didn’t…) Frieda introduced other exotic items, maybe I’ll do a video at a later time. Frieda’s Specialty Produce  is a second generation, female owned, family business in Southern California. But tonight, it’s all about the Stokes Purple® Sweet Potato. Grown in California, this is a denser sweet potato  with good flavor. Just look for the Stokes Purple® Sweet Potato label Lauren
