Los Angeles after dark

Geography dictates everything, because bars close at 2am statewide and the gaps between Silver Lake, the Arts District, and the Sunset Strip mean a separate rideshare for each. Echo Park and Highland Park hold the neighbourhood-bar crowd, West Hollywood the club end. Nothing walks to anything else, so commit to one district a night rather than attempting a crawl.

What to eat in Los Angeles

Tacos are the civic dish, and the spinning al pastor trompos of East LA and Boyle Heights beat anything served in a hotel. Grand Central Market downtown stacks a century of immigrant counters into one hall. Koreatown handles barbecue and late-night stew, Thai Town does boat noodles, Sawtelle does ramen. Langer's number 19 pastrami has a real case against Katz's.

What's actually worth your time in Los Angeles

Griffith Observatory charges nothing to enter, offers the cleanest Hollywood Sign sightline from its lawns, and bills only about $10 for a planetarium show. The Walk of Fame is a photo stop and very little else. The Getty Center's tram ride, gardens, and Brentwood ridge view justify the trip before you reach any art. Venice and Santa Monica are two distinct beaches.

What things cost in Los Angeles

Transit caps at $5 a day and $18 a week. Museum admission can genuinely total zero across the Getty, the Broad, the California Science Center, and Griffith Observatory, with parking the actual charge, at $25 at the Getty. Two street tacos cost a few dollars. The real Los Angeles line item is the rental car plus parking, not tickets.

Los Angeles's museums, and which one to pick

The Broad is free on a timed ticket, with Koons, a Kusama Infinity Mirrored Room, and a standby queue for walk-ups. The Getty Center is free as well, and you pay $25 to park, falling to $15 after 3pm, $10 after 6pm, and nothing after 6pm on Saturdays. LACMA, the Academy Museum, and the La Brea Tar Pits sit within blocks of each other on Wilshire.
