Eat Your Way Through LA

You haven't experienced LA until you ride through it on the top of a double decker bus, in the heat, rolling down the freeway, holding down the banner thats whipping you in the face, dodging tree branches and hit and runs...

Example

Shouting "ILLEGAL" at everyone, calling out to the Paris Hilton look alikes. There is always an adventure and a good story at the end of an afternoon with John and the Double Decker Bus.


Example
John is the host of this tour. He filled our bellies and minds with garbage. Good garbage. Did you know Cher went to Hollywood High?

Example
I wish our first stop was Sushi 101. It's my favorite.

Example
Ok, First stop: The Smoke House, right across from Warner Bros Studios.

Example
You can't start the day without garlic breath. We give it two thumbs up. Way up.

Example

And if you were to rent a double decker bus, where would you go?
Example
Griffith Park, naturally! Did you know that Ben and Jen's baby shower was there days earlier?

Example
The LA River is beautiful this time of year.

Next eats: Almond Cookies in Chinatown.

It's the year of the Rooster.

Robin, Marie, and David. Robin is (A) Lauging at John's antics (B) Trying to keep cool on an August afternoon, or (C) preparing for a day's work at the rice paddy.

Enter: Olvera Street
Oldest road in Los Angeles

How much could you do in 10 minutes?

It's the premiere selection of Mexican wrestling masks.

They tempted David, but he resisted.

No. We didn't stop at the jail.

Example
I told Gill to avoid Boyle Heights at all cost.

But I would return, just to see the Mariachi square again.

Downtown, in all of her radiant glory.

This is where Wilshire begins. Or does it end here?

By this time, we were hot, we were tired, we were full. We didn't want Dodger dogs, we didn't want to walk around City Walk, we didn't want slurpees.

Example

Example
Time to go home and get some ZZZzzzzzz.
