Self Tour in Los Angeles (Day 1)

I am quite satisfied with the trip to Los Angeles this year. Being a tour guide for my colleagues for a one day trip in Los Angeles turn out to be quite organized. I am glad that all the destinations planned for one & half day in Los Angeles are achieved and I am able to accomplish the Griffith observatory visit this year as I not able to do it last year. The food that we tried also quite good although I just choose the shop based on my instinct & tour book review.

Kodak Theatre. Academy Award(Oscar) venue.

Hollywood Highland. A highend shopping complex with the lastest trend and design of fashion items.

Hoy Ka Thai Noodle @ Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles

When we reached LAX airport, we took a shuttle to the nearest Metro station. From there, we need to take the Metro for two stations before we took a bus to our hotel. The whole journey took about 90 minutes. When we reached our hotel in Hollywood near Thai town, we were so hungry and I simply choose an Thai restaurant for lunch. There are quite a number of people in the shop and it should be good.

Taste:8/10(Good. Try their crispy pork rice. But beware of the spicy level. Don't order anything higher than medium if you can't eat spicy food).
Price:7/10(Moderate. The price is considered budget. A large bowl of noodles priced at USD5.00).

Obvious sign.

They have all the spicy and extra spicy chilly flakes.

Tomyam soup.

Thai pork rice. Crispy pork and nice. A must have dish here.
