There are so many food options from many different cultures, and all are delicious. Grand Central Market is located in downtown LA and has a large range of food, and the ambiance is lively. Additionally, matcha is a classic LA drink, and West Hollywood is the home to many cafes that serve excellent matcha, like Community Goods and Cha Cha Matcha.
