Best Chicken

These days, you can find great fried chicken on the menu at all sorts of upscale restaurants like Cube Marketplace and Cafe, The Parish and M.B. Post. But so long as you're opening your wallet, you may as well go to either Bouchon or FarmShop for their pricey but superbly herbed and spiced fried chicken, with meat that is almost impossibly tender and juicy. Between the two, the edge goes to FarmShop, if only for accessibility: Its fried Jidori chicken is available à la carte in their market on Sundays and occasionally Mondays, so you can grab just a few pieces to go without breaking the bank. When you do get back to your car, chicken in hand, the aroma wafting from the container inevitably will lure you into taking at least a bite before driving home. You couldn't be further from South Central, but whether you're gnawing on a drumstick in the parking lot at Jim Dandy or at the Brentwood Country Mart, some rituals remain the same. —Tien Nguyen
