"If you love a chicken sandwich, head for Ma Lou's Fried Chicken in Ypsilanti. There's a good selection on offer here, but two sandwiches stand out as customer favorites. The OG combines fried breast or thigh with Cheddar, smoked Gouda, slaw, and pickles – but if you prefer something spicier, try The Hot Chick. To make it, the joint's classic fried chicken is slathered in a Nashville hot baste, then slotted into a bun with bacon, lettuce, tomato, jalapeño ranch, and pepper Jack cheese."
