  • A fried chicken sandwich can be a little like a Rorschach test: The specific imprint of grease and schmutz and stray vegetation it leaves behind are a picture of the person who made it, or at least a good look at how they take something already delicious and try to put their own spin on it. In this episode, Jenn visits with two of her favorite fried chicken sandwiches in Los Angeles. The first - an unlikely alliance of schnitzel and Texas toast and herb-spiked mayonnaise - is as distinctive as everything chefs Sara Kramer and Sarah Hymanson serve at their nouveau Middle Eastern spot Kismet. Jenn and the Sara(h)s then visit the Shad’s New Cali Catering food truck in Torrance to try chef Michael “Shad” Lawless’ Kickin’ Chicken sandwich. It’s closer to Southern tradition with a fried chicken breast, slaw and pickles on a buttery bun.

    The Kismet sandwich looks atrocious. Bread to schnitzel ratio is unbalanced. What are you supposed do when the bread is all eaten up and you're left with a grip of schnitzel, lettuce bits and loose jardinare?

    I like the video, but I am not sure you are using the right word when you say "schmutz." I think you mean "schmear." Schmutz means dirt. Or am I wrong?

    How can a trend start with a business that makes an item that has been around longer than the business itself? Also is situation the new buzz word for things? Not what it means but OK lol.

    • @sundawg911
      @sundawg911 4 года назад

      I think she just means that the fried chicken sandwich really blew up in LA specifically due to the viral attention Howlin Rays got when it first began. My opinion the restaurant came at a time where there was a lot of attention on Nashville Hot Chicken. A bit of luck and although I've never had their food, most people have said it is good.

      @@sundawg911 I get that but it just seemed that she should have made the same point. As a writer it did not seem hard to do. I mean the same thing can be said for Eggslut and their egg sandwiches. Did not make them but, started a buzz over the quality, size, and taste of what they offer. Thanks for the comment.

    Nice video with two scrummy sandos....But for both this and the first video in the series, I think more credence (or at least equal if not more screen time and focus) should be going to the people of color whose culture was the origin of this beloved dish. Less bougie, more realness, less food gentrification.
