One of my biggest regrets is not getting my driver's license when I was 16. Confession: I still don't know how to drive. Back home, my town's pretty small, and my parents and friends always gave me rides to and from places. Once I got to USC, I didn't really think I would need a car. The public transportation is pretty efficient and now Uber has become even more convenient. There are times though that I wish I could just get into a car and drive to a cafe in LA or Santa Monica, order something to eat and drink, and read without worrying about the time.
I don't get off campus much, but when I do I take out my food bucket list and track down one of LA's best places to eat. Living in a big city has its perks. Food is definitely one of them. I'm a HUGE foodie, and I love traveling. Wherever I go, I try to search up the most popular (and reasonably priced) restaurants, cafes, food trucks, really, just anywhere that has delicious food. If I could have three wishes, one of them would be to have a bottomless stomach so I could try every food in the world without getting full and without gaining weight.
I've got two more years in LA and over fifty restaurants and cafes to cover on my list. BuzzFeed has two great posts that highlight some of the best places to eat in LA. Next time you're around the Los Angeles area, forget Subway and Chipotle and pick one of these!

Tiffany, one of the restaurants I HIGHLY recommend from your second list, "23 Cheap Eats," is #9. Masa in Echo Park. If you haven't been there yet, put it on your list (maybe up a couple from 9). I haven't been in a while, but it is a cool place where I've always had a cool time. Nothing fancy.
ReplyDeleteI also love to try different new restaurant! My recent favourite is the La Paella near Beverly Center. You should try it if you haven't. :D

ReplyDeleteI am a huge foodie and one thing that makes LA appealing to me is the endless options of food. I usually look for Asian food so I know less about other cuisines. This list can help me explore new places. Thanks! :)
