Ever wonder about those chickens you see grillin' on the street when you are driving around?  Not only are they delicious but they are also pretty cheap... 2 whole chickens freshly grilled, tortillas, beans, rice, salsa for about 20 bucks.  You can find them mostly on the east and down to the south.  Exact locations are irrelevant since they move around quite a bit.  When you are driving around checking out the taco trucks, don't forget these guys!

L.A. will also have to reimburse the street vendors for their past fines relating to this controversial sign. However, this does not include any other fines related to equipment restrictions or lack of permits. This also means that while a vendor can’t be cited for vending in areas like the Hollywood Walk of Fame anymore, they can still get cited for other city regulations.
