Dollar Hits, Historic Filipino Town Los Angeles

Image
Address: Historic Filipino Town, beside K-Town, 2422 W Temple St, Los Angeles, CA 90026 Rating: 4 out of 5 Feedback: Amazing! Almost everything for 1 dollar and you can grill it yourself as well. They have special menus/dishes which cost more than a dollar e.g. Balut (Philippine's Weird Duck Egg) is 2 dollars Definitely, Philippine Street Food that has a variety of "EXOTIC" things like Betamax - Coagulated Pig's Blood Pig's Ears Chicken Skin Chicken and Pork Intestines and many many more Do NOT order the garlic rice - it was old and hard rice. Just order a steamed rice. Balut (Duck Egg)

We tried Crab Egg's Benedict which was really good. The bun was interesting since instead of bread, they used battered tomato. Ordered crab for 20$ as it was only 3$ more from a normal Egg's Benedict. Biscuits is their famous dish here for like 10$. Reminded me of Scones and it came with Preserved Jam, Cinnamon Cream Cheese, and Cheese Pimiento. 

Runyon Canyon Park HIking

Website:  https://www.laparks.org/park/runyon-canyon Address: Runyon Canyon Park, 2000 N Fuller Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90046, USA Feedback: I liked it since there was a nice view of Los Angeles (unlike Crystal Cove where more than half of the route, you can't really see anything but just dead / brown landscape).   There were lots of water fountains and the trail is pretty much easy with actual pavements There's a LOT of people hiking or even people who just go for a run Nice SHORT Hike with a view of Hollywood, Griffith observatory, and skyline of LA Parking: Fuller Ave or just around the streets near it. Can get crowded if you get later in the day.

Alfred Tea Room / Coffee (Melrose Place, Los Angeles)

Alfred Tea Room Website:  https://alfred.la/ Address:  705 N Alfred St, Los Angeles, CA 90069 Rating: 4 out of 5 for Tea 4.5 out of 5 for Coffee Feedback: Signature Pink Drink  It's like Almond milk with Raspberry/Strawberry flavor. Not really my thing but it's also like 6.50 for their Signature Pink Drink so a bit pricy. Matcha - OK nothing amazing but it was good. Boba could be better Coffee - good but would have wanted nicer latte art
