Ludo Bird - Kalkbaai iNingizimu Afrika

I was surprised to see a chicken sandwich place at the Crypto and even more so after the first bite. The chicken sandwich is pretty good as far as flavor. It was a bit hard to bite but we managed to finish it all. Also the house made chips were delicious. The cashier recommended it and we didn't regret trying it. A bit pricy for the size of the sandwich but let's not forget that we are inside a stadium so it was expected to be. Everything costs more at these places. Even a bottle of water can go up to $6 Great service from employees. ....

DISGUSTING. FOOD POISONING. DONT EAT HERE EVER. I went to the laker game last night vs the bulls. I got Ludos. I took one bite of one tender and noticed it was undercooked. I was grossed out and moved onto the next tender. After biting into that second tender, I immediately noticed a HORRIBLE taste and SICKENING consistency. I looked down at my chicken to see that it was totally pink and undercooked and was also full of some kind of cancerous cyst filled with puss. I immediately spit that piece out after chewing it for a few seconds. This was the most disgusting and traumatic experience I've ever had with food in my life. I felt so sick after just a couple bites. I still feel awful. I don't even know what it was that was in that chicken but it was so gross I can't even believe it. If anyone can reach out to me or help me contact LudoBird and/or Staples about this. I plan on taking action.

Inside Staples Center, I wanted something besides nachos or hotdogs. I read about Ludo's, so naturally I had to check it out. What is it about fried chicken sandwiches lately? They're everywhere! I ordered the dark meat version of their fried chicken sandwich. It had coleslaw in the middle, not a lot, but it added to the texture of this sandwich. It was spiced just right and this is a good sandwich overall. Would I get this again? At $13.50 with no sides is kinda steep, but this was decent. I would try the white meat next time or maybe the strips only and skip the bun. If you don't want the typical pizza, burgers, nachos or pretzels at a game, then try Ludo's.

While I was checking the board menu I was surprised they didn't offer a sandwich. The menu is very limited to the chicken strips and chips. I ordered the chicken strips and the chips which were okay and very oily. I'm not sure why this place is popular but there are better chicken choices out there.

Ludobird on the first floor of staples center is a great alternative to other typical game vendor food. Their chicken sandwiches are tender and juicy completed by a delicious sauce. It's not overpriced for staples center but definitely overpriced if you were to pick it up outside of the arena. I highly recommend utilizing their mobile order so you can avoid the long, patience testing line. That said, Go Kings!
