You'll find Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles located two blocks off the Long Beach Grand Prix's landmark Turn 11 hairpin corner. Not only is Southern California's sweet and savory cultural tentpole a longstanding fixture in movies, songs and television, but it also serves as a popular destination for post-race victory celebrations -- as 2021 IndyCar champion Alex Palou confirmed.

Unlike Formula One's marquee street race, Long Beach isn't nestled into the coastal hills of the French Riviera and it's definitely lacking in opulent casinos and black-tie affairs.
