I'm REEEEAAAAALLLYYYY sick of people goin' so hard for Pink's.....honest opinion, you can get a much BETTER hot dog from the City Walk movietheatre. In terms of food, what you NEED to do is make sure you hit up a taco truck on the late night and cop like them $1 carne asade joints :hot Tommy'sis good, and only go the Roscoe's on Pico (trust me). Also, go to Amoeba music store (which I forgot to) but they have tons of selection and old stuff andocasionally have shows. ALSO!!! Walk around hollywood blvd. during the day cuz I know sometimes you get passes for a free screening of something comingout....that's how I saw American Gangster like two months before it actually dropped. And the %!%$ is ALL THE WAY FREE! Just make you sure you get therelike 30 mins before they say because it's on some first come first served and you wanna be up in the front of the line.
Melrose is hot for shopping....parking is crazy though, so park on a side street and just walk. If you into thrift shopping, they got good ones over there.Just got back from L.A and I miss it already. Rodeo drive is too rich for my blood. Beverly Center is prolly the best mall, followed by South Bay galleria.Every girl past Olympic is about an 8< so I wouldn't advise goin' with a lady friend cuz you will be doing a LOT of gawking/looking.
