Where NOT To Go On A Date In Los Angeles

While you probably wouldn’t take your date here for dinner (due to the sheer lack of ambiance) perhaps you would consider picking up Zankou for a picnic dinner at the Hollywood Bowl. Don’t do it! The food is good, but it’s drenched in garlic and a tad messy to eat. So, if you don’t want garlic to ooze out of your pores, you might want to save this one for WAY down the line (like after you’ve been married for 3 years).

Zankou Chicken’s like a torrid night out on the town. I always feel slightly hung over the next day and I smell like three day old cat litter after, but I keep on doing it because it’s so good. The chicken is juicy and the skin is extremely crispy, but the raison d’etre (did I use that phrase correctly?) for Zankou Chicken’s huge popularity is their amazing garlic paste. Honestly, I think it’s lard mixed up with seasonings and garlic, but it is definitely, definitely groin grabbingly good. Their reasonable prices don’t hurt either.
