Best Fried Chicken

Donahoo's Golden Chicken is in Pomona which, if you live in L.A. proper, can seem awfully far to go just for a drumstick. But, if you happen to be driving east on the 10 anyway -- because you're headed to the L.A. County Fair and need to supplement that deep-fried Kool-Aid, or, worse, because you're on your way to Ontario to take the California Bar Exam -- then you'd be remiss not to make a chicken stop. Once there, you'll see folks walking out the door with pale white boxes; had you not just parked under a giant chicken hoisted high in the air, you might have thought you accidentally stumbled upon yet another cupcake shop. But, thankfully, you haven't: What's in the box, rather, are fries, which you can skip, and chicken, which you absolutely cannot. These are indeed golden pieces of chicken, with a batter simply but perfectly seasoned with salt and pepper. —Tien Nguyen
