Stopped at Bricklane a week ago and should have posted sooner. 5 stars! This is IndIan food like I've never experienced. Flavors are balanced. Nothing we ate over powered any other dish. We shared plates so we all got to try several. The room is class. It has a great vibe. Our server Laura was on point. she knew the menu inside and out and nailed the flavor profile of each dish. Not only was she friendly from the start but kept her patience during endless questions from my undecided friends! I haven't had service like that in a long time. Great night all around read more

Parking was super convenient and felt safe, with valet parking right next to the restaurant and easy access in and out. The drink menu was delicious--honestly, even better than Baar Baar! I loved the spices and flavors in the dishes. They do such a great job of putting a modern twist on Indian food while still keeping those bold, flavorful spices. The presentation was beautiful, too. The Tandoori Prawns and the Lamb dishes were definitely one of my favorites! The ambiance was another highlight. They have a beautiful, open dining area, along with outdoor seating around a fire pit. It's such a great atmosphere, especially for a night out with friends. Having a space like this in Downtown is definitely a rarity. What made the experience even more special was meeting the owners. They were so kind and genuinely sweet, and you could really feel how passionate they are about Brick Lane and the food they've created. It was really nice hearing them share the story and passion behind the restaurant. Overall, such a fun spot for a girls' night, date night, or just a night out enjoying great food and drinks. We'll definitely be back! read more

There's no dessert menu here. Unexpectedly, I learned upon arriving complementary dessert from having booked a reservation through Yelp was plated biscuits sitting outside at the front desk. It bothered my boyfriend how eager the host was to offer us these small sandwich cookies as the free dessert once when we arrived and again when we were about to leave. We arrived around 20 min late and I really appreciated how accommodating they were. Then again, it was a Sunday evening and we spotted plenty of open tables. We liked the seating style here. We shared a comfy couch in the corner with throw pillows. The aesthetic inside is very pleasing. As the sky darkened outside, it was dimmer outside and felt more romantic / intimate. Music playing inside was Indian. My boyfriend recognized a few tracks. We parked outside in the street and while it wasn't far from the restaurant a transient half-dressed man passed by us on the sidewalk and hit our car with his cart of belongings. He left a scuff mark. We didn't confront him. We parked right by a pole where the sidewalk was beginning to narrow. Nonetheless, this experience made us feel very unsafe. We saw the man pause for a time in front of the entry way to the restaurant. We encountered fellow restaurant goers who noticed the man and like us only walked to the restaurant once the man had left the immediate area. My boyfriend wasn't happy with the paid $14 valet situation in the big lot the restaurant is directly adjacent to. The private lot was vast and completely empty save for a few cars. Straight away, we saw the menu in person differs from the menu online. We thought we had our order already decided but made adjustments accordingly. We weren't given water with ice. We were poured chilled water and were given water over ice after we asked for ice at least three times. All the food was relatively spicy as my boyfriend likes. I don't handle spice well so I was getting hot and bothered. Presentation was lovely and I found the food relatively good despite the spice levels I was barely tolerating. My boyfriend and I agreed the nonalcoholic ease adaptogenic drink was delicious. The chances of us coming here again for dinner are slim to none. read more

I had dinner at Brick Lane last night (8/1). I always have high hopes when a new upscale Indian restaurant opens because I think Indian food is really underrated and deserves to be showcased along with the more commonly seen world cuisines. Unfortunately, this was one of my most disappointing restaurant experiences in recent memory. I'll start with the good. The space is a renovated warehouse with an industrial kind of vibe and is a fun setting for dinner. That's it. The service was awkward and inconsistent. I'd be willing to overlook that if the food was good. Or even OK. Nope. Our first course (Banarasi Aloo Kachori) came out lighting fast and yet was oddly lukewarm. The pastry on top was tough and doughy. Nothing tasted fresh or like it was even made in-house. The biggest problem, though, is that the spices were raw. In all the dishes. There are few things worse in Indian food than spices that haven't been cooked through. We also had the Tandoori Prawn and Hara Lasooni Paneer. Equally bad. I'll pause for a moment to mention that my husband is Indian and I have been to India several times, so maybe our expectations were high, but that seems reasonable given that the prices here are equally high. Anyway, we reset with the hope that the main dishes would be better. Somehow. We had the Applewood Smoked Butter Chicken and Bricklane Laal Maas. Again, the spices were not cooked though, but even more confusing was that it seemed clear that the meat was not cooked in the sauce (what?). The laal maas was the most offensive, though. It was really inedible. I don't like to waste food, but after three bites I just couldn't force myself to eat more. The meat had a revolting taste of liquid smoke and a blander version of the (orange) butter chicken sauce was poured over it. If you've had laal maas before, you'd be as confused as I was. I'm still having a physical reaction thinking about it. We also ordered three different bread options, all of which were indistinguishable and looked like they came out of a frozen packet. Is anything made here?! Our waiter came back at the end of dinner, and as I was signing the check awkwardly asked if there was anything they could have done to make the dinner better. That's a strange point to ask when I clearly did not eat my meal, but really I don't think there's anything he could have done, I can't believe that anything else on the menu would have been something I'd want to eat. I hope no one that is new to Indian food goes here and leaves with the impression that this is how Indian food tastes. read more

Chris and staff were awesome. Very attentive. Appetizers were perfect! Main courses had a little too much spice read more

We recently visited Brick Lane with our family of six and had a decent experience, but there were a few things that left us disappointed. I'll start with the positives. The restaurant is good looking and large, and the service throughout the meal was good. Our servers were attentive and friendly. The only hiccup was that it took a while to get our check at the end. First, we were automatically charged a 20% large party gratuity for our normal family of 6. While I understand that many restaurants do this, it's something guests should be aware of before dining. I also think this probably needs to start around 8 people. There's a huge parking lot right outside, yet you're still required to use paid valet instead of being able to self park and it's $14. I parked my own car but still paid the $14. Also the area is kind of weird I understand they practically got a built out restaurant as this used to be brera as the interior is pretty much the same but something like this would probably do better on the west side. Downtown LA is just a little odd when it comes to high end restaurants and specifically Indian restaurants. As for the food, it was good but not great. There were definitely a couple of standout dishes that we really enjoyed, but overall the food didn't justify the premium prices. Our bill came to about $550 for six people, which was surprising considering we were just a normal family dinner and some things were good and some were mediocre. We weren't ordering the most expensive items on the menu or anything extravagant just a variety of dishes to share. I usually don't mention cost in my reviews but this seemed liked a lot for this meal. I rarely comment on price because I'm happy to pay for a great meal. But if you're going to charge premium prices for Indian food the food needs to better across the board. That just wasn't the case here. What we ordered: * Chili Cheese Kulcha - 4.5/5 * Banarasi Aloo Kachori - 2/5 (beautiful presentation but lacked flavor) * Hara Lasooni Paneer - 4/5 (very good, but $28 for paneer felt overpriced) * Smoked Kashmiri Chicken Tikka - 3.5/5 (would have preferred chicken breast instead of dark meat) * Lucknowi Lamb Galouti - 4.5/5 * Boti Kabab - 3/5 * Paneer Saag - 1/5 (looked great but had very little flavor) * SoCal Karahi - 3.5/5 * Applewood Smoked Butter Chicken - 3/5 * Sourdough Naan - 4/5 * Garlic Naan - 4/5 * Missi Roti - 4/5 Another surprise was that they had run out of bottled water, which I didn't expect from a restaurant at this price point. They also don't accept cash, which wasn't an issue for us, but it's something diners should know before visiting. Overall, Brick Lane has a good atmosphere and some genuinely good dishes, and the service was solid. However, between the mandatory 20% gratuity, paid valet despite the large parking lot, running out of bottled water, the cashless policy, and the premium pricing, I just didn't feel the value was there. For nearly $550, I expected more dishes to impress not just a few. Unfortunately, I don't see myself returning. Our search for great Indian food in Los Angeles continues. read more

A great addition to LA's Indian dining scene. Brick Lane brings London style Indian food to LA. While it is on the pricier side, the quality of the food and attentive service make it worth considering for a special meal. We were warmly welcomed with complimentary mango mousse tart and raspberry tart, which was a thoughtful touch. We ordered a variety of dishes, and the standout appetizers were the Chicken Tikka and the Shakarkand Chaat, featuring sweet potato and yogurt. Both were flavorful and well-balanced. The ambiance, however, felt a bit subdued and lacked the vibrancy we were expecting. For the main course, we had the Wild Mushroom Biryani and the Lamb Yakhni Pulao. Both dishes were excellent, with rich aromas and perfectly balanced flavors. We also tried the Applewood Smoked Butter Chicken. Although the chicken was exceptionally tender, the smoky flavor wasn't quite to our taste. To finish, we had the Kerala Coconut dessert, which was light, refreshing, and a pleasant end to the meal. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience with excellent food and service, despite the slightly underwhelming ambiance. read more

Hard to believe this place has only been open a month. They're putting such a cool spin on Indian street food inspired by the UK, and everything felt really well thought out. The menu is built around sharing, with an appetizer, smoked meat skewer, and curry for each person, so it's perfect for a date or bringing a group. We tried a ton of different dishes and every course delivered. Service was outstanding. The bartender knew the cocktail menu inside and out and explained how the Indian spices and flavors were worked into each drink. The food staff had great recommendations too, which made it easy to navigate the menu and try the right things. The ambience is what really surprised me. The space is huge and open with a great energy, plus outdoor fire pits that make it easy to hang out for a while. It feels modern while still embracing the culture behind the food. I have a feeling this place is going to become a staple in LA very quickly. Can't wait to come back. read more

Brick Lane in the Arts District is a great spot if you're looking for Indian food with a modern twist. It's definitely more upscale and creative than your typical curry house. We ordered family-style, which was the perfect way to try a bunch of different dishes from Chef Sanjay Rawat. The cocktails were fantastic, and the food was a fun mix of traditional Indian flavors and creative new takes on classic dishes. My favorite of the night was the Charred Sweet Potato Chaat, which reminded me of a mix between pani puri and bhel puri. The Boti Kabab was another standout--the steak was incredibly tender and packed with flavor. Some of the other dishes we tried were the Paneer Keema Saag, Hyderabadi Mushroom Dum Biryani, Grilled Branzino, Applewood Smoked Butter Chicken, Awadhi Lamb Rack, and Hara Lasooni Paneer. Everything was delicious, and there were still plenty of dishes on the menu we want to come back and try. This is definitely a place to go with a few people so you can order a variety of dishes and share. The service was excellent. My wife has a seafood allergy, and the staff was very attentive about letting her know which dishes to avoid and making sure she felt comfortable ordering. Overall, this is a great romantic date-night spot or somewhere to celebrate a special occasion. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back with family and friends. read more

A Wonderful Dining Experience at Brick Lane We had such a wonderful experience at Brick Lane! From the beautiful, elegant ambiance to the warm and attentive service, everything about the evening felt special. The lighting and décor are beautiful and classy without feeling pretentious. It is a perfect place for a special dinner, a gathering with friends and family, or even a larger celebration--they have the space, atmosphere, and wonderful staff to make it memorable. Our waitress, Bo, was absolutely fantastic. She was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure we enjoyed our meal. She made us feel very comfortable and welcomed throughout the evening. Her service truly added to the experience. I had the Banarasi Chaat, Palak Paneer, saffron rice, and sourdough naan. Everything was beautifully presented and full of flavor. My husband, who eats meat, had the Awadhi Lamb Rack, which comes with rice, and also ordered the Missi Roti. He thoroughly enjoyed his meal. My only small complaint was that the saag was a little too spicy for me because I prefer very mild food. But Bo was so accommodating and let us know that we could request a milder preparation next time, which I really appreciated. And then came the desserts! I had the Valencia Orange & Cardamom, and honestly, it was unlike anything I have ever tasted. Such a unique and beautiful combination of flavors. My husband had the Kerala Coconut, which was equally delicious and wonderfully creative. Both desserts were memorable and a perfect ending to the meal. Brick Lane is one of those places where you can tell there is thought behind the food, the presentation, the setting, and the service. The restaurant has a very special atmosphere, and the staff make you feel genuinely cared for. Five stars for Brick Lane, and five stars for Bo! We will definitely be back. read more

Unfortunate attempt for a fine dining restaurant that needs work still. First impressions, the staff was nice and the restaurant inside seemed aesthetic. However, once I was served, the old fashioned was not an old fashioned. It was slightly more expensive than a typical one and was missing the signature transparent ice cube and marashino cherries with the twisted toothpick that you would see at any fine dining restaurant. Maybe they just happened to run out of the ingredients and resources to provide that (happens). Lamb yakhni, honestly the flavor was there but the portions were not. Almost felt like finding waldo with the actual lamb pieces. Applewood chicken, the sauce was great with the naan and had a little kick of the spice. However...somehow, for a $40 plate there was only 4 pieces of chicken. Maybe that specific chicken was extremely special and blessed by gods or they were just very short on chicken which was why we were served 4 pieces instead of 3-so I am extremely grateful for that. Furthermore, the side of rice was marginally less than the lamb plate (portions were very off) but it's okay, resources were probably short (happens). On yelp, it says reserve for a free dessert. We did a reservation, but the restaurant itself was already very empty so really it wasn't needed. At the front desk, they had some small pastries for all customers. We were told that was the complimentary dessert by the end of our meal. All in all, maybe they were just short on resources, happens. I will not be coming back, ever. read more

Heard about this restaurant through Eater LA, so we made the drive (over an hour each way) hoping for a great family dinner. Unfortunately, it turned into one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had in recent memory. We arrived promptly at 5:30 p.m. and were the only people there, yet the hostess told us our table needed to be prepared. Meanwhile, several other parties arrived and were seated immediately. At first, we assumed the delay was because we had our toddler with us, even though we had already explained we didn't need a high chair since he would stay in his stroller. But other families with toddlers and infants were seated without issue. Once seated, we ordered and were told it was best to place the full order at once so the chef could send dishes out "as he deemed fit." Our first entree arrived about 20 minutes later, followed by a very long gap before anything else appeared. After finishing the first dish, our plates and utensils were removed and never replaced. A server brought another entree to the table, realized we had no utensils, took the dish back to the kitchen, and asked someone to reset the table. When he returned, it turned out the dish wasn't even ours. By this point, our toddler was understandably getting restless. Anyone dining out with young children knows how much planning goes into making a meal out enjoyable including timing naps, snacks, activities, etc. We had now been sitting there for over an hour with little food and virtually no service. Eventually, we flagged down what appeared to be the head waitress and explained that we hadn't received attention or food in roughly 40 minutes. She apologized and assured us it would be corrected. Our waitress later returned looking nervous and apologized as well, but it was obvious the entire staff was disorganized. The kitchen also seemed painfully slow, as barely any food was leaving it. After yet another wait, our food finally arrived. We ate quickly and eventually had to walk to the host stand ourselves to pay because no one checked on us or brought the bill. The restaurant itself is aesthetically nice, though the surrounding area felt sketchy. More importantly, the food simply didn't justify the experience. Nothing we ordered was particularly memorable -- just expensive, fancy-plated Indian food. If you want truly outstanding wood-fired kebabs and incredible sauces, go to Saffy's instead. Fine dining is about more than presentation. You're paying for food, service, ambiance, and the overall experience. This place currently delivers none of those consistently. They either needed a proper soft opening with limited seating or a more streamlined prix fixe menu until the staff could handle service smoothly. Overall, a frustrating and expensive waste of what was supposed to be quality family time. read more

Had dinner Saturday night . Everything was great food was delicious what I liked about the food was they have made it little modern but have not deviated from the authentic flavors. Most restaurants forget to keep the original flavor so loved that . Cocktails were good . Our host was very nice and helpful in his suggestions with cocktails which actually helped us to make good choices. Will definitely go again . Location was a little turn off but beautiful restaurant. Definitely worth the visit. I hope I got the names right for the dishes and cocktails. read more

Nice place... is why I gave this rating an extra star to get the 4 in writing . Food...was overall good. But service NOT so much. The food took very long to come out after we ordered. To be exact. The app came out in about 20 mins which was okay. But the rest of the actual food came out in 45 minutes which took way too long. There was only 2 chef at the fire pit making food for the whole restaurant. Maby adding 2 more chef would speed up the food time coming out so customers wouldn't have to wait that long. Hopefully if I plan to come back next time it will be a better experience read more

Had an incredible dinner at Brick Lane in the Arts District. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor, but the standouts for me were the Branzino, the banarasi aloo Kachori, Valencia Orange and Cardamon and the Elaichi Vesper cocktail. The Branzino was perfectly cooked, delicate, and flavorful, while the Kachori was a fantastic balance of textures and spices. The Elaichi Vesper was easily one of the most unique and well-crafted cocktails I've had in a long time. read more

This place fell very short of all expectations we had from this place being featured on social media everywhere. Let me start by saying that the service was great and our server was very nice. The plating was good. The food, however, left way too much to be desired. Every dish was lacking in flavor, even the cocktails. It's trying too hard. We are Indians and are familiar what good Indian food tastes like, but this place ain't it. read more

We visited as a family of three with our toddler and had a fantastic experience. The restaurant was very family-friendly and had a high chair available, which made dining with a little one much easier. Another big plus for DTLA is that parking was abundant and convenient. The food was exceptional from start to finish. The breads were soft, fresh, and some of the best we've had. The standout dishes were the Laal Maas (lamb shoulder) and the branzino--both were cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and beautifully presented. The lamb was tender and rich, while the branzino was delicate and expertly seasoned. The fusion approach felt thoughtful and elevated without losing the authenticity of the flavors. Combined with the welcoming service and great atmosphere, this was an outstanding meal. Without a doubt, one of the best Indian restaurants in DTLA. We'll definitely be back. read more

Was excited to try this new place in the Arts District, but alas, it wasn't a good experience because I arrived hungry and left hungry. Asked for their vegan options since their menu's small print said most items can be made vegan (without marking anything explicitly as vegan on the menu). Was given around five items on entire menu that could be made vegan. And this is how they can be made vegan: for example, "SoCal Karahi": if you wanted that in their vegan version, per the server, it would just be ginger and rice. I asked if they had vegan meats or cheese or even tofu, and they said no. They also said they couldn't make any of their non-dessert items without onions. Chef never even offered to come to talk to us when I asked if there's anything the chef could do to accommodate our dietary preferences. This was surprising because there were hardly many folks inside the restaurant, so the chef couldn't have been that busy. Server said they can't accommodate us because food is premade with blended onions already and because they don't do vegan substitutes. Only vegan dessert option was a sorbet. Additionally, no chai (caffeinated or not) was to be found on the dinner menu. Only nice thing was the spirit-free menu, artwork, and the ambiance. The drinks presentation was impressive as well. I hope they can improve their food menu in the future to cater to the diverse dietary needs of the city they serve. read more

Prompt, friendly host sat me at a great table! Sevice, friendly and knowledgeable. I'm not super familiar with Indian cuisine, and my server gave me some great recommendations I had Hara Lasooni Paneer: Layered charred cheeses with a mixture of dates and pine nuts over a shishito pepper cream and topped with a charred tomato chutney. Amazing! Also exceptional the Lucknowi Lamb Galouti and Orange Cardamom Tart. Yum! read more

Visited this place on Friday, good to see a new high end Indian restaurant in LA. The service is quick and warm, host and waiters were all very nice. They've some classic dishes with an upscale twist -- keeping the spice game still honest. Nothing feels watered down or "Americanized." I ordered the Aloo kachori, Branzino, lal mass and chickens tikka. We absolutely loved the food. The Laal Maas and the Branzino are the absolute stars of the dinner - Fall-off-the-bone lamb neck with that amazing rich sauce. As for the branzino- Rarely do you see a whole fish dish at an Indian restaurants. A little on the pricey side but absolutely love the food. read more

All the dishes we ordered were impressive: Charred Sweet Potato Chaat, Boti Kebab, Applewood Smoked Butter Chicken, Smoked Kashmiri Chicken Tikka, Garlic Naan, Tandoori Roti, and for dessert Orange and Cardamon Tart. Service was friendly and welcoming. Great space, except for the acoustics. It was very difficult to comprehend the conversation among the three of us at our table. Ambient background noise drowned out our ability to hear one another, and the room was not near full. If we could carry on a normal dinner conversation I would give 5 stars. read more

We went for dinner and, since we had a reservation, were seated within five minutes. Our appetizer arrived in about 10 minutes, but we then had to wait nearly 35 minutes for the main dishes. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. The kebabs were dry and overcooked, and the paneer dish was excessively salty. Overall, the meal did not meet our expectations. read more

Visited the restaurant right after the soft launch for a special celebration with my wife and 2 other couples. The ambiance was a tasteful balance of Indian bespoke art and the raw outdoorsy vibe of Brick Lane in London. We were immediately seated upon arrival, no wait and started with a variety of interesting cocktails. The bartender incorporated atypical Indian fruits, liqueurs and sweeteners such as kokum (sour), jaggery (sweet), fenugreek seeds (bitter), spice blends, etc. to create an Indian twist on the familiar likes of whisky sour and old fashioned. Quite innovative, refreshing and delicious. The theme of harmonious balance, familiar tastes with unique ingredients echoed throughout the food as well. I found the chef quite deft in letting the ingredients shine through instead of being drowned out by heavy Indian spices (typical in many Indian restaurants). Loved the chaat that swapped traditional potato patties with baked sweet potato. Haloumi paneer, Branzino, lamb (laal maas) were the highlights on our table. The butter chicken felt a bit of miss or must I say safe amongst all the dishes. The vegetable biryani was a sleeper hit with a very meaty treatment of the mushrooms (instead of typical jackfruit biryani) and is a must try. The bread accompaniments were great and added a sour / sweet or neutral element to deliver the curries. We ordered a flight of wines to pair with our food and the whites and reds didn't disappoint and complemented the spice very well. To close out our meals we tried 2 desserts for the table that presented well and tasted great. The staff gave a complementary dessert for our celebrations and we ended the night with great tasting spicy ginger and saffron tea served in ethnic kettle and glasses. Overall, very pleased with the vibe, ambiance and service of the restaurant. Food is a modern take on Indian cuisine that evokes nostalgia and curiosity at the same time without overwhelming the palate. This goes on my regulars list. read more

Great location in the arts district with amazing ambiance. Co-owner Sachin Nayyar came to our table to check in and we told him it was our second visit in a week. That should tell you a lot! he introduced us to chef Sanjay Rawat, who has created a menu worth praising. almost too much to mention, but I'll try The Lamb neck is fall off the bone tender with a depth of flavor from an array of spices that stayed with me like a fine wine. Fantastic prawns, salads, wagu beef, branzino. Yes we had it all! We will be back soon, yes AGAIN too busy eating to take photos read more

While I realize that Brick Lane is still at the "working the bugs out" stage, they need to work them out very soon, or they're going to have a problem, because they're not going to survive on hype. First, the positives: the space is lovely (it's the former Brera, and there were few changes). Food was good to excellent, although pricey. I'd describe it as "SoCal modern Indian Inflected". Now, the downside: the service was the worst I've seen in a long time at a restaurant near this price point. Our waitress seemed flustered and confused; someone else's glass of wine ended up on our bill, until we spotted it and asked to have it fixed. The hostess was forced to fill in gaps for the waitresses. There seemed to be no dedicated "bussers" ("bus-people"?) so waitresses were bussing dishes, replacing dishes and flatware. The "kitchen runners", (can't think of what else to call 'em) seemed unable to coordinate with the waitresses, so food arrived at tables with no flatware or dishes. Nobody was "checking back" with diners, and we, and diners next to us, had to go to some effort to get anyone's attention (see other reviews from last night). Oh, and as someone else noted, there's no yea/chai/coffee to be had. Lassi would be nice, too! So, food 4+ service 1. read more

Finally, an Indian restaurant in LA that is worth the hype! The sweet potato chaat alone is worth the trip - crispy, tangy, layered just right. But then the Laal Maas arrives and the bar moves again. Deep red, slow-cooked Rajasthani lamb with a heat that creeps up on you in the best way. Chicken tikka was super tender and spiced just right. The best thing on the menu for me - grilled Branzino cooked in Indian spices without ever overwhelming, just melted in the mouth! The innovative drinks are clever without being "try-hard" - top picks kanji margherita and kokum negroni. The space feels like someone actually thought about it: warm lighting, rich textiles, Arts District edge without the attitude. What an elevated experience! read more

Food is subpar. Service is good. Drinks are fine. Chef is trying too hard to make it complicated

Our reservation was 7:30. We didn't get our first dish until 8:15. Portions are small and Indian spices didn't really come through in the dishes. The tandoori chicken was probably the best dish but the beef kebab was strangely grainy and tough to eat. The garlic naan was lacking garlic flavor. And the butter chicken tasted more like salt with a side of butter chicken. Will definitely not come back here. read more
