This place has a great vibe and even nicer food! the chicken and biscuit sandwich is absolutely irresistible. The bread on the Po Boys is actually shipped in from New Orleans. Try the Crawfish chips!
Don't be fooled by the name, this place is not "spicy" however you'll get deliciously spiced, wonderfully priced authentic Chinese food here. Different than the typical American Chinese spot.
I work about a block away from here. Owner is very friendly, I love to get the Pork Glaze Banh Mi but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The lunch rush settles down around 1:30pm
Fantastic falafel and hummus, just be warned, there is a TON of garlic in everything here. So, if you are a vampire, this is probably a place to skip, for everyone else, it is AMAZING!!
The first time I took a bite in to their vodka slice, it tasted like I was sent to a new flavorful dimension. The cheese on that slice was great quality too!! Square pepperoni slice also great!
if you get the Pauwel Kwak, ask for it in the special glass with the wooden stand. It's a cool novelty, the way they drink it in Belgium.
Sit in the far right seating section of the theater if you don't want to get too wet. Probably will get more soaked by guy with bucket entertaining crowd than by the show itself.
As a Simpsons fan, weirdly the best part of this ride is seeing all the attention to detail in the line queue. Lots of great jokes and nods, ride itself is fun though.
Significantly less crowded than the original Pink's location, also a better food deal than anything in the main theme park.
If you are visiting Venice Beach beforehand, stop by at the Costco nearby. Season passes are like fifteen dollars cheaper than even the one time general admission at the gates.
Some shows are better than others. Animals don't always follow their cues but it's probably even more adorable when they don't. Be sure to pet the doggie after the show
If you can, go for the back side of tram 4 or 5 and sit on the left. Many more explosions, plus there's some psychotic mama's boy that always comes out on the right
Tons of Simpsons references peppered throughout, be sure to check out the secret room on the top floor
Get an obscenely large Maple Bacon donut for five bucks and split it with a friend or two. One of the better food deals in the park.
The frozen banana is six bucks at Daniel's but it's an easy purchase to justify for any Arrested Development fan
Great food at a decent price, the Día de Muertos stuff at the entrance is a nice touch
