Sitting right on the border of Toluca Lake and NoHo, you’re going to have to get in your car and drive to HealthyCA, but this dime-sized spot is worth it. It’s nothing more than a counter and a few tables out front, but you don’t come to HealthyCA for the cute vibes. You come here to get what’s probably the best salad situation in the whole area and to sit in silent self-hatred back in your car.

Want to go horseback riding and catch a stunning view at the same time? At the end of Beachwood Drive (this could be before or after you visit the Hollywood sign) eventually, you'll hit a dead end at Sunset Ranch Hollywood's cluster of horse stables. The ranch offers a variety of daily trail rides (we suggest you book ahead on their website: http://www.sunsetranchhollywood.com/ ) through Griffith Park. Pricier and longer rides include meals or a trek to the top of the park or Mt Lee, but even the basic one hour ride ($40) lets you snag a close-up look at the Hollywood Sign along with sweeping views of the hills and LA cityscape below.:

This place has all the excess and novelty that makes K-town great for everybody. There’s karaoke every night, at 5 pm on weeknights, 8 pm on weekends. I embrace the liberation of occasionally being saturated with k-pop, bar food that makes me sweat, and bizarre cocktails.
Bust out the AM-radio gold, all those songs your mother loved. Crosby, Stills, and Nash—maybe Carole King, Joni Mitchell, or even Steely Dan if you're feeling on top of your game.
