Don Pollo Peri Peri

You're heading down Ladywell East Road and you want something that tastes proper—not the usual chain takeaway fare. Don Pollo does flame-grilled peri peri chicken that's marinated how it should be, with enough kick to keep things interesting without drowning everything in heat for heat's sake. The place has built itself a loyal following round Livingston, and you can see why: they're not trying to be fancy, just consistent. It's the kind of spot where you actually want to stay and eat rather than just grab and go, though they do both well enough.
