Food Scene

Cafe & patio for omelets, breakfast pastas, pancakes, sandwiches, burgers & chilaquiles. Small restaurant but worth the wait. The sides for breakfast are not your typical eggs & bacon or cantaloupe and honeydew (unless you want it.) EAT serves buttery zucchini shreds, and their fruit cups often contain unusual treats like star fruit or dragon fruit.

This place seems to always be busy, but they are worth the wait. They're known for a massive selection of breakfast dishes, available all day.

Sightseeing

There is a lot more to see in Hollywood proper but this is near by and it's fun to see the courtyard outside the theater, big Emmy's statue and busts of famous television personalities.

Entertainment & Activities

Really fun for families with younger kids. In the heart of Griffith Park, which is great for hiking, biking and being outdoors. Till January 6th, the zoo is holding a special holiday event from 6pm-10pm where everything lights up in holiday lights. Most animals are asleep for the lights event but a fun different side of the zoo is there to enjoy.

Great family spot for younger kids! It's free to explore the old trains and see the small museum that has a model train set that kids can watch from behind the glass. The main attraction here is the Travel Town Railroad that circles the park. $3.50 for adults and $3 for children under 11. Fun cheap entertainment for the family.

Los Angeles is known for many things but one of the main attractions is it's the country's largest film and TV hub. I always tell my tourist friends to be a part of any TV audience they can while visiting. My favorite audience to be a part of is The Price Is Right gameshow. Everyone in the audience has a chance to be a contestant! Go to http://on-camera-audiences.com/shows/The_Price_is_Right for tickets. You may just "come on down being the next contestant" on the show and leave LA with "A New Car!!!!".

There's an impressive Harry Potter Town with Hogwarts and a large Springfield area for Simpson's fans! Lot's of simulator type rides and a few coasters to enjoy. The waiting times are not bad but you want to take a full day to enjoy the park and city walk shops and restaurants.

The locals love their blue baseball team. Even if you are not a Dodger fan, (I'm not either) Chavez Ravine is a historical stadium and a neat place to see a ballgame. It's the oldest stadium west of the Mississippi River and third-oldest overall behind Fenway in Boston and Wrigley in Chicago.

Destination for hockey (LA Kings), basketball (Clippers & Lakers) and many concerts. If you do catch an event here, I suggest taking the Metro Redline Subway from NoHo. The subway is cheap, faster than the congested freeways, and you'll avoid parking in this busy sports and entertainment district.

Essentials

Local grocery store, you could walk if you don't mind carrying back groceries. They open at 6AM and close at 1AM, so it's great for everyone but insomniacs. We use them often to stock our fridge for the essentials.

Smaller than your average grocery store but more attractive for their unconventional and interesting products. Parking can be tough but that speaks to how popular the place is. Their packaged salads are great for lunch.

Parks & Nature

Griffith Park offers many hiking options but a fun trail to explore is the Old Zoo Trail. Like the name suggests, you hike passed old zoo ruins and abandoned cages. Many movies have been filmed here.
