    Jonathan Gold closes out this week's show with the scoop on where to find the best Asian fried chicken in Los Angeles. "There are so many chicken frying traditions all over Asia," says Jonathan, "every country has its own or many, many different kinds and we're lucky to have a lot of them." KCRW's Abbie Fentress Swanson and Camellia Tse made the rounds, drumstick by drumstick and wing by wing. Check out Jonathan Gold's world of Asian fried chicken in LA, mapped, on the Good Food blog.
