Power Rankings: The Best Fried Chicken In SW Louisiana
Deep-fried foods are so magical and they're also a staple of SWLA cuisine.

We thought it would be fun to Power Rank SWLA Fried Chicken joints. For me, fried chicken needs to have the delicate balance of crispy skin and at the same time be slightly greasy, plus the meat needs to be juicy.
92.9 The Lake's Sports Director and Weather Liason Patrick Frey joins us today to rank his favorite fried chicken spots.
Patrick's Best SWLA Fried Chicken:
5. The Kitchen (Lake Charles)
4. Leonard's Food Quarters (Lake Charles)
3. Southern Spice (Lake Charles, Moss Bluff)
2. Mama Reta's Kitchen (Lake Charles)
1. Ball's Fried Chicken (Lake Charles)
Honorable Mention: Rikenjaks (Lake Charles)
Let us know who has your favorite fried chicken in SWLA in the comment section of our Facebook post.
Next week, same radio station and time, we'll be power ranking the best po-boys in Louisiana.
Who has the best po-boy? We'll dive into that next week.
