The Olvera Street (or El Pueblo) is the historic center of LA. It is right opposite of the Union Station. You can lots of Mexican restaurants and stores there. When I visited with two friends I met at the hostel, we had a Mexican lunch which was very good. We also tried some Mexican candies such as ...

If you're right in the city and have to choose between Universal and Knotts, go to Universal, for sure! It is a lot scarier. The cast and the people who work there are also really into it (I know because I used to work there for the holiday parade, and the staff really enjoys being a part of the act...

Universal Studios Hollywood theme park is a theme park based around the original Universal movie studios in Universal City, Los Angeles.

I visited the last day of the Magritte exhibit, which exceeded my expectations. They had 90% of his famous ...

The LA Philharmonic now plays at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. This hall is definitely worth seeing, whether you attend a performance (average $100) or just take a tour ($20). The architecture is unique, fresh and a modern marvel. The seating arrangement is very peculiar, with seating on all 4 sides...

The Saddle Ranch is a favorite of USC and UCLA students, as well as recent graduates and the hip, young, Sunset Blvd. crowd.
The atmosphere is lively, the food is decent, and the mechanical bull adds an extra touch of fun.
It is a great place for birthdays because they have larger tables and ...

I've had to go Europe a number of times recently and find myself constantly struggling with getting there the easiest way possible. With all the flight delays (rate of 50% this past year!!) and lost luggage problems (1 in 4 for me) I try and go direct to Europe and then take Ryanair or EasyJet to th...

The only decent place in Southern California that I've heard has good diving is Catalina, a large island off the coast of LA. You can take a one hour boat ride for about $20-30 from San Pedro or Long Beach. The water can be cold in the winter. The aquatic life isn't tropical, but there are one of a ...

Hehee! Sorry I couldn't resist writing a review with Will as the cover shot. It's just such an adorable juxtaposition! Big Southern guy, little colorful yogurt.. ahahah!
