Intrepid Foodblogger, Chicken Fried compares two Pastrami Reubens at 2 of Los Angeles's well known delis.

Early this month (July), my wife purchased a fried chicken (already prepared) from the Walmart Deli department located in Paola, KS. When we opened the packaging, the first thing I noticed was a few chicken feathers on the OUTSIDE of the breading on a leg and thigh.

The Cobb salad was a signature menu item of the legendary Brown Derby in Hollywood, a landmark restaurant in Los Angeles, California. Variations of the salad are now served in restaurants world-wide. The original recipe contained:Lettuce (head lettuce, watercress, chicory, and romaine)TomatoesCrisp baconChicken breastHard-cooked eggsAvocadoRoquefort cheeseChivesSpecial Cobb salad vinaigrette The salad was presented to the customer on a plate, then chopped fine with knives before serving.In 1937, Brown Derby owner Robert H. Cobb went into the restaurant's kitchen to fix a late night snack for Sid Grauman, operator of the Chinese Theater of the same name. He combed the refrigerator for what ingredients he could find and chopped them up finely because Grauman was suffering from a terrible toothache. Thus, the Cobb salad was born. From then on, Grauman would always request that a Cobb salad be prepared for him. The news about this wonderful creation spread quickly throughout Hollywood making it an instant hit, therefore it was added to the menu.The Hollywood Brown Derby Restaurant at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World, a 90% accurate replica of the original, serves Cobb salad.
