Coffee shop just down the hill. Good coffee. I prefer Fix up the street, but Chango has its own devotees. It's next door to Cookbook, a small local gourmet (and expensive) grocery store, across from a gas station, and on the way down to Sunset, so it's a convenient stop.

Echo Park's home cooking. Relaxing. Fun. Famous for deep-dish pizza but they have other dishes. It's expensive for what it is, but it's a warm and inviting place to hang out. Always crowded.

Highly recommended. Many people's favorite taco spot. Great outdoor seating. Colorful crowd. Try the sampler plate - delicious and a bargain! Try the horchata - the perfect antidote for a salsa inferno in your mouth! They also have many non-spicy options. Seriously, go! BTW - often a line, but it moves quickly.

A great downtown Los Angeles scene. This is a beautiful and bustling place. Loud. Great bar. The food is good, expensive, although you can order appetizers or small plates, as well as a full meal. We like to sit in the bar for a drink and soak up the people watching, then go elsewhere for dinner.
