Great Dim Sum. They come quickly with the carts and can be a little pushy. The Shrimp with candied walnuts is amazing. Great place for lunch and then explore LA's fading China town.

This easy-to-miss storefront in the heart of Echo Park offers a New American menu that's classic with some quirky twists (think braised-beef pot pie), not unlike the neighborhood. The space is blockhouse modern, with painted brick walls and lots of candles.

If you come to LA, this is a must see "cultural experience." Kind of seedy and rougher on the weekends. Muscle Beach has been featured in so many movies and TV shows. Fun to rent a bike. BTW, if you want to see some hot beach babes you may want to drive to Manhattan or Huntington Beach.
