The hidden jewel is even better when you are on a 3 class international configured 777 sold as 2 class domestic. Pay for coach and for the price of a couple of upgrade stickers, HEAVEN

Wandering around the Southland
...I was a little hungry, so I went up the 405 to Culver City and found Tito’s Tacos – one of my goals on this trip was to only eat at some unique Southland experiences. I picked up two tacos and a tostada, and somehow got a box full of nacho chips and salsa to boot which I didn’t really want. I ate one taco on the drive back, and finished off the other taco and tostada back in the room. Good stuff.[/b]
Tito's has some of the best mexican food for such a great low price. Try the enchilada next time. My usual order is one taco w/cheese, one enchilada, and an extra side of salsa for the fresh made tortilla chips.

...After two days in LA, I am not sure I can face a regular fast food hamburger again back in Chicago – I might have to go to Hackney’s in Glenview to get a great-burger fix.
Did you try In-N-Out next to the airport? Great burgers. It seems that one of Los Angeles' positive claims to fame (besides the earthquakes, OJ Simpson, mudslides, brushfires, plagues of locust) are great burger joints. In-N-Out, Fatburger, Tommy's.

Great trip report. I love it when a trip report is done in my own backyard because I can picture exactly what you were doing
