South of Koreatown, the Byzantine-Latino Quarter melds both Greek and Latin communities. The neighborhood's culinary poster child might be Dino’s Burgers #2, a family-owned operation since 1968. The signature dish, Pollo Maniaco, aka maniacal chicken, is a plate of grilled half chicken—its reddish-orange tinge attributed to a marinade of vinegar, garlic, chilies and secret mix of Greek-spices. Short-order cooks serve the bird atop a plate of French fries and douse everything with more spicy red sauce. Add a container of crispy cole slaw and a stack of corn tortillas for makeshift tacos.
