[dropcap size=big]I[/dropcap]’ve been a loyal paying Dino’s Famous Chicken customer since 2001.
Back when their famous ‘Dino’s Chicken’ plates were $4.75, my mom would give me $20 of her hard-earned money in the mornings after dropping me off at Berendo Middle School so that I could grab four plates on the way back home to share with my family.
But this story is in appreciation of their underrated second-best seller. A pile-up of their L.A. Greek diner basics combined into one glorious one-plate feast: DUI Fries.
DUI fries, for the uninitiated, are carne asada fries topped with chili, shredded yellow cheese, pastrami, and drenched in their famous chicken marinade. It is the city’s maximum expression of chili cheese fries.
