This is where we got engaged! The museum entrance is free and looking at the sites is pretty incredible (on a clear day) You can either park at the bottom and take the relatively easy hike up (45 min to an hour) or drive all the way up and park up top. Parking is limited at the top, but there is parking along the road on the way up. Also, a great view of the Hollywood sign!
This is one of our favorite breakfast places. The breakfast burritos are huge and delicious! Eggs, Potatoes, Bacon, Cheese? You can't go wrong! Ask for extra salsa! Chris thinks he is one Lucky Boy :)
Our favorite boba place! Known for their unique take on tapiochi, a hybrid between boba and tapioca, this is the best place in the SGV (San Gabriel Valley). We highly recommend the Butter Popcorn flavored tea!
One of our favorite coffee shops! The Lavender Vanilla Breve is the absolute best!
WE LOVE SOUP DUMPLINGS!!! Koko is half Taiwanese so this place takes her back to her roots! :) This is a MUST eat, especially if you are staying at LeMeridien because it is across the street!
Koko's mom is from Vietnam, so Vietnamese dishes were a large part of her childhood! These are some of the best Spring rolls ever! The Nem Nuong (or charbroiled pork sausage) spring roll is one of the best, as well as the Banh Xeo (Vietnamese omelette)
Grab a few Cuban Pastries or a Cubano sandwich then go for a walk at the Glendale Galleria! Chris loves the cheese rolls, potato balls and the strawberry matcha latte Koko loves the cheese rolls, Parisian chocolate cake and doesn't think anyone should sleep on the Orange Juice!
Any Parks and Rec fans? This City Hall might look familiar ;) A beautiful location we love to take photos at!
One of our first dates in LA, visiting the Huntington Library is a great place for exploring a beautiful botanical garden and some rich history, home of the original Canterbury Tales! This is a must see if you have a half day you want to fill!
Whenever we visit LA, and feel extra motivated, we try to walk the 3 mile loop! So incredibly beautiful and one of our favorite spots!
