🍗 Vancouver’s BEST Fried Chicken? L.A. Chicken Review!

📍 L.A. Chicken 11780 Thorpe Rd, Richmond Move over, Church’s – this hidden gem near No.5 Road serves crispy, juicy, fresh-fried perfection that’ll ruin you for chain chicken. 🏆 Why It’s Special ✔ Daily fresh oil – no recycled grease (unlike some chains) ✔ Paper-thin crust – shatteringly crisp, not bready ✔ Gravy magic – pour it over rice = next-level comfort 🍗 What We Ordered 🐔 12-Piece Combo – $20 ★★★★★ Mix of thighs, drums, wings – juicy inside, golden outside. Leftovers? Air-fry to restore the crunch. 🍚 Chicken & Rice Bowl – $12 ★★★★★ Shredded chicken + gravy-drenched rice = simple genius. 🥔 Mashed Potatoes – $4 ★★★★☆ Creamy, lumpy, homestyle – perfect gravy vessel. 💡 Pro Tips ✔ Order ahead: Call 30 mins before pickup (they fry to order). ✔ Best bites: Thighs (juiciest) and wings (crispiest). ✔ Skip: Coleslaw (standard, not standout). 💰 Damage: ~$15-20 per person #VancouverEats #FriedChicken #RichmondBC
