The American host needs to be changed. He doesn’t add anything to the show apart from his pathetic humour.

From those who've been to Willie Maes in NO, the consensus is that it's great the first time but tasted too salty the 2nd time.

That Korean fried chicken was over the top. They couldn't pick something more normal

what a naive british guy. no white british can handle spicy food n chicken tikka masala is an abomination to indian cuisine.

more indians n pakistanis r becoming british citizens so data will obviously show that 'britishers' can handle spicy food.

realizing kettle fry is just top tier fish and chip batter if done right and fish and chip shops should seriously consider frying chicken in the same batter

Eating excruciatingly spicy food is for the birds. It's only for people that create content.

Going to LA for good fried chicken is like going to Portugal for good sushi

You can, but why though?

Disappointed that you guys didn't go to Louisiana (chicken joint) or even Pioneer Chicken. Those places have been around since before I was even born, and I'm an 80s baby

Love the video but gotta combat the notion that LA doesn’t have a long history of fried chicken. From Jim Dandy and Golden Bird (50s), to Pioneer (60s), to Louisiana Fried Chicken (70s), there’s a long history that’s typically found south of the 10 and east of the 405.

I don’t think its a fair shot for Howlin - they’re country (spice level) chicken thigh is one of my fave things to get, and I’d put it up against honeys kettle fried chicken any day- would love if yall could do a retest!

@nova1117

Got Honey Kettle off of your recommendation and you were 1000% right. Excellent chicken.

@dlpictures8842

Howlin Rays are by far the best fried chicken I’ve ever had….especially the Sando one of one…

Give me Howlin hot!!

Gol tong chicken is delicious hehe

I say this with all due respect, the best fried chicken in Los Angeles, might be the fifth or sixth best gas station fried chicken in the South.

Spicy chicken should be its own category

I was lucky enough about 10 years ago to go to New Orleans and dine at the original Willie Mae's. So I was so happy when they opened up 2 locations in LA but was sad when they closed down this year. Right now, in LA County, my favorite fried chicken is Go Go Bord which is actually walking distance from Honey Kettle. Honey Kettle's fried chicken is very crispy but lacks seasoning. Go Go Bird is similar to Willie Mae's in that its both crispy and flavorful. Honey Kettle has the best biscuits in town though - they ae like a cross between a biscuit and a donut and oh so delicious! So what I recommend is go to Honey Kettle and buy the biscuits. then walk over to Go Go Bird and order the fired chicken and you have a divine meal combo right there!

Pioneer Chicken not mentioned and it’s Los Angeles landmark

Los Angeles has been doing chicken for years. Go to Pioneer Chicken in Boyle Heights. You must be a transplant,all good

Zero excuses for not putting Roscoes and Gus's on the try list. Win lose or fail gotta be there. Honorable worth trying is Dinah's. Come on guys try harder

It always surprises me that restaurants with old oil in the deep-frier let people with cameras into the kitchen. That dark brown tone? Nah, that ain’t it.
