Comfort Food & Pioneer Chicken

from Mad Food · host Jordan Okun and Max Shapiro

Times are tough and emotions are running high, but the comfort of food can help. Jordan talks recent meals at Funke and Sushi Sonagi that helped it all fade away, and then he lists some his most comforting LA foods. Then, brother and sister Ernie and Val Aguirre enter the food building to talk the OG LA legendary chicken spot their family has been running for the past 35 years; an institution that nearly disappeared, and is now going nowhere but all the way up. Pioneer Chicken will be appearing at this year's annual Tenderfest, Sunday October 22 in Beverly Hills. Come check them out and get a taste of history.
