Guerilla started off as a good truck and grew into a brick and mortar. The sweet potato tacos are it! 

Favorite bookstore. There's an art book + comics section and a chapter books section.

The best ramen I had in LA, maybe anywhere. Even my food-critical son loved it.

Fantastic food in a cozy, intimate restaurant - where you can sit at the bar and see the chefs expertly doing their culinary thing with style and ease.

One of my favorite special occasion dinner places. Always low dim lighting and a calm vibe. Piano in the background and lighting make you travel back in time. An LA classic.
