"Drive to Raffi’s Place, which is a massive, bustling Mediterranean restaurant that is indoors, but it's made to look like it's outdoors. The service is impeccable. It's huge, filled with families eating their hearts out at any hour of the day. They do an incredible eggplant dip and incredible hummus, and this thing called the Tadig stew, where you bake beans on top of a layer of rice."

"In Koreatown, I'll go to a place called BCD Tofu House, which specializes in this Korean tofu soup and all of the Korean side dishes."

"At a Taiwanese restaurant called Huge Tree Pastry, get one rice ball. It basically looks like a log burrito made of rice, and stuffed inside are the most incredible greens, pickled vegetables."

"There is a stunning, colorful taco truck called Mariscos Jalisco. They specialize in seafood tacos — in particular, a ceviche, and also these really special fried shrimp tacos that are so fucking sensational and addictive. You will order two, then you’ll probably go back and order another two, then you might even order another two."

"My favorite café is a little hole-in-the-wall called Dayglow in West Hollywood. You can go there, pick up your perfect cup of coffee — perhaps an iced oat cortado, that's what I get. And then you sit outside — choose not to sit on the really hot aluminum benches, sit on the curb, because the streets are always really quiet."

"Get a huge meal at this long-running Greek restaurant in Malibu called Taverna Tony. There's such satisfaction in doing this big hike and being a little bit dirty, and just turning up to a restaurant and knowing they're going to treat you as well as some celebrity that might walk in."

"Doing the trek to Malibu, you just feel so remote. When I'm in Malibu Creek State Park, all I can see are the mountains and all I can hear are the trees and that beautiful sound of your sneakers crushing stones. It's so soothing when you are in a city that's going 24/7."

"There's an art museum that has a beautiful, permanent collection, and you can trot all around the botanical gardens… My two favorites are a Chinese garden and a Japanese garden."

"There is a fantastic gelato place that was started by a couple of Australians. It's called Awan. I choose blood orange with coconut, but maybe if you're feeling adventurous you can have the tortilla signature gelato they've been making lately."
