Hungry Girl's Los Angeles
Lisa Lillien (a.k.a. Hungry Girl) shares her favorite healthy eats and more in Los Angeles.
In-N-Out Burger - LAX
Everyone loves In-N-Out, but do they know how to order there? Best guilt-free burger ever - a single burger, protein-style (no bun!!), leave off the special sauce, and add ketchup, mustard, tomato and raw onions. Your burger'll clock in with just 160 calories. HAVE TWO!!!!
Mastros Steakhouse - Thousand Oaks
The Beverly Hills location is a great place to see celebs -- Thousand Oaks is more of a date spot... either way, you can't go wrong. Don't leave without ordering a seafood tower. And for dessert, it's hard to beat the warm butter cake with fresh whipped cream. So good it once actually made me cry.
Rose Bowl Flea Market
The second Sunday of every month, check out this huge flea market. There's a fantastic mix of new and vintage stuff. You'll NEVER leave empty handed. You'll burn lots of calories walking, so treat yourself to one of those famous frozen slushie lemonades there, too...
Kazu Sushi
I've been to Tokyo, but the absolute BEST sushi in the world is located right here in Studio City. Kazu ROCKS... Best toro on the planet but EVERYTHING there is amazing. The miso-marinated quail eggs are a must-chew as well…
Cici’s Café
I live close to this Tarzana gem, but I would happily drive HOURS to get even one bite of their Say Trick or Treat (Pumpkin) Pancakes. I eat 'em every year on my birthday. Yum! The food is so huge and gorgeous I've been known to snap pics of random strangers' plates. (Just a warning!)
Naimie's Beauty Center
A beauty product lover's DREAM! I could easily spend hours here browsing all of the cosmetics and accessories. SO MUCH FUN!
Sherman Oaks Castle Park
For kids of all ages, this arcade is totally fun! And luckily there are games of skill and chance to help level the playing field. Skee-Ball is a classic favorite of mine... the prize cranes, too! You can count on leaving with a pair of humongous sunglasses... An added bonus? The place is super-clean and never too crowded. Woohoo!
Karina's Cake House
My favorite cake on the planet comes from this bakery in Glendale. The Kievsky cake has layers of crispiness, fluffy cake, and creamy filling. One of the world's best kept secrets. I guess the cat is now out of the bag...
Nordstrom Rack
I do most of my shopping online, but I frequent this bargain-packed spot almost weekly. Just a block or so away from Nordstom at the Topanga Mall (another one of my favorites!), the Rack is ALWAYS cram-packed with AMAZING deals on GREAT stuff...
