Food Scene
This is one of our favorite little restaurants. It is open late until 11 pm and the servers are efficient. If it is busy, you might need to seat yourself, but the servers will quickly notice you and bring out complimentary tea. I recommend the Beef Wraps. They are so good and enough to feed 2 people. NOTE: this place is cash only!

This is a drive-through boba place. I repeat, DRIVE-THROUGH BOBA. What more could you ask for? It is so dangerous because I want to go there every time I leave the house. After 8:30 pm, they shut down the drive-thru and start the 'night party.'

If you've never heard of In-N-Out, then you certainly aren't from the West Coast. Found only in California and a few special nearby states, In-N-Out has become the iconic fast-food hamburger spot. In an effort not to raise your hopes too high, it might not be the best burger you've ever had and there might be a really long line, but its alright and very popular.

Entertainment & Activities
Even if you are not interested in horse-racing, the Santa Anita Race Track is a fun way to spend a day. There are a couple restaurants in the racetrack where you can enjoy brunch overlooking the races with the San Gabriel Mountain Range in the background. Time of races are posted online. Since it is outdoors, try not to go on the hottest of days.
