Foodie Favorite: The Fried Chicken Sandwich at Son of a Gun in LA

Son of a Gun, in the Mid-City section of Los Angeles, is primarily a seafood restaurant, but one of our go-to dishes there is the Fried Chicken Sandwich.  Served on a brioche bun with spicy slaw, pickles, jalapenos, and Sriracha mayonnaise, the chicken is a thin piece of breast meat that has been fried in a simple breading.  The combination is far more than the sum of its parts, and always worth the indulgence.  Although the menu at Son of a Gun is designed to be shared, you will want your own sandwich!
