Food Scene
The food is great. It's a small place in the middle of a strip mall. They're close by, very convenient and they have happy hour deals on food and sake. My favorite...the Not My Roll and their garlic edamame is delicious.

A Hollywood legend began when husband-and-wife Paul and Betty Pink took out a $50 loan to buy a hot dog cart to sell chili dogs on the corner of La Brea and Melrose in 1939. Some 75 years later, the hot dog stand, Pink’s Hot Dogs, is run by the same family and has a celebrity following who crave the 30 types of hot dogs on the menu.

Experience the Venice Beach boardwalk!!! Plenty of vendors and entertainment. Also, there is a drum circle on the weekends (where locals come out and join in with one another to just vibe with whatever percussion they bring). For skateboarders, there is an amazing skateboard park. Stroll or jog along the beach, roller blade or skate, rent bikes, scooters, or people movers...dining or drinks.

A must for tourists. Shopping, dining, movies, live music, entertainment, holiday events, a dancing water fountain and an old fashioned trolly ride. Christmas is great for the tree lighting event and summer is great for outdoor concerts, but this place is for every season. Dinner, a little shopping, and/or a movie. A great romantic date night.
