Great Dim Sum. They come quickly with the carts and can be a little pushy. The Shrimp with candied walnuts is amazing. Great place for lunch and then explore LA's fading China town.

This is a great late night noodle house. Open most nights until 3AM! Serving Japanese beer on tap and domestic. My favorite dish is the... Tenshin Men (Shrimp Omelette on Ramen with Gravy Soy Sauce Based Soup) Ask to add a 1/2 order of fried rice on the side for about $3. Goes great with a pint of Kirin or Sopporo.

This easy-to-miss storefront in the heart of Echo Park offers a New American menu that's classic with some quirky twists (think braised-beef pot pie), not unlike the neighborhood. The space is blockhouse modern, with painted brick walls and lots of candles.

Least busy and best bike path in all LA. Go North up the channel with the ocean and channel on both sides of you or south to Manhattan Beach and enjoy the Ocean Spray. Path Goes all the way to Redondo Beach. Go North to Malibu with some breaks in the path around Marina del Rey. Watch out for windy days as you will get sand blasted.

If you come to LA, this is a must see "cultural experience." Kind of seedy and rougher on the weekends. Muscle Beach has been featured in so many movies and TV shows. Fun to rent a bike. BTW, if you want to see some hot beach babes you may want to drive to Manhattan or Huntington Beach.

Fan out your credit cards in front of Tiffany's for a fun pic. If you must buy something at Tiffany's the most affordable thing I have found is the key chain or money clip. Worth it for the bag and beautiful gift wrap.
