LA's 19 Best Spots for 4/20 Munchies
It's 4/20 today, and you know what that means: it's the 89th anniversary of the discovery of the process to add sound to film!!!!!!! And since talking about silent movies always makes you chronic...ally hungry, here's a ton of crazy food p*rn, and where to get it. YAY SOUND IN MOVIES!!!
Mid-Wilshire
See those pastrami-drenched fries above? This unassuming place is where to get them.
Sherman Oaks
This gastropub has mac & cheese. And pork belly. On top of its burgers. On top. Of its burgers.
Multiple locations
Snoop goes there, so...
Downtown and Pasadena
This is not a drill. This is mac & cheese inside of pie crust.
Pot and Pot Lobby Bar
Koreatown
Yes, Pot is, uh, named for your favorite thing (soup!), but only at Pot BAR can you get these Notchos: a beautiful dream from Roy Choi's #2, Jude, who decided to make this concoction of rice cakes, cheese, chili sauce, spicy pork, poached eggs, and herbs. Hahahahah herbs.
Universal City
Universal Studios recreated The Simpsons' hometown where you can now eat Krusty Burgers and drink Duff beer. Yeah, read that again, then find someone to drive you to Universal.
Hermosa Beach
Seriously, this place has a meal, pictured above, based on Jack In The Box's Munchie Meals. It's too perfect for words.
Orange County
They put a goddamn pop tart inside a donut. Seriously, these guys should win some sort of Nobel Pop-Tart Donut Peace Prize or something.
Multiple locations
Not just this Philly cheesesteak, but Tastykakes, too? Yes. You will have those.
Studio City
Hangover. Hoe. Cakes. Also brisket.
Multiple locations
You guys, they have spaghetti and meatball sandwiches with the buns made out of pasta. YOU GUYS.
Santa Monica
Dude, are you licking your screen right now? Also, how far are you into GTA V?
Santa Monica
First, DK's made a fake Cronut. Then, DK's made a waffle donut. Now, you want to go to there.
North Hollywood
Henry's has taco burgers!!!
Multiple locations
It's hard to go wrong with the insanely juicy burgers. Or the absurdly crispy chicken. Or the mouthwatering pastrami. Or anything. What were we talking about?
Highland Park
It's like Pinkberry for donuts, which means you can put all sorts of silly crap on there. We're not judging. Promise. Stop being so paranoid!
Mid-Wilshire
The move is to go for lunch, get this pork belly kimchi fried rice, and then just laugh about nothing for like 20 minutes.
Hermosa Beach
Uh, dude? Those red-braised lamb nachos stand nary a chance.
