Visiting Where can I leave our suitcases while we travel?

4 Upvotes

Husband and I are visiting LA, we’re from overseas

We are spending 11 days in the US, 3 of which will be spent in Las Vegas and that will be maybe day 7-9 of of our trip. Because we have large suitcases and don’t really need to carry that with us to Las Vegas for 3 days, is there a storage facility we can leave our suitcases in LA for 72 hours? The only one I can see on Google is LAX Luggage Storage. Is that a legit and safe company to use or are there better alternatives?

Recommendations Most unique spot to eat?

51 Upvotes

I have an 8 hour layover in LA on Monday and want to take advantage of it and venture out and enjoy a one of a kind meal that I could only get in LA. I am open to any genre or price range. Are there any quintessential LA spots or restaurants with must order dishes? I noticed lots of places are closed on Monday, so ideally a place that will be open.

Transportation Flying from LAX to Asia with a 2g disposable weed pen. Is carry on safe enough? NSFW

0 Upvotes

I’m not too worried about my destination. My main worry is customs/TSA or whoever it is that does the security checks once I get in the airport.

I’ve been doomscrolling endlessly with conflicting answers and I’d like to ask if anyone has any recent experience with this? International flight experience over domestic would be preferred. Thanks!

Edit: yall gotta chill 😂 how many times do I have to reiterate that my destination is not a concern. If you don’t have any international flight experience from LAX then it’s just best to scroll past this post

EDIT 2: after all this critical feedback, I have decided that I’ll just finish the damn cart. A tall task since I have around a week and a half left but fuck it we ball

Recommendations Looking for Conversation friendly bars that play rock n roll?

3 Upvotes

Basically, as the title suggests. I'm looking for an average bar where people actually talk to each other and the music being played is some form of rock n roll. I'm assuming this would skew the demographic to slightly older, but really age doesn't matter to me. Just looking for a friendly place to enjoy a cold pint and hear some rock n roll music. Do they exist any more?

Eating Can anyone help me find restaurant investors or restaurant opportunities in LA (for Indian cuisine)?

2 Upvotes

Hi folks,

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I am trying to help a restaurant owner & chef who is trying to move from Delaware to Los Angeles. Where he ended up in Delaware is very seasonal for the hospitality business, and he wants to be busier year-round. He has years of experience as head chef for the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai, as well as other high end locations. He is very eager to come to Los Angeles, which I understand!

I'm not in the restaurant business and don't even know how to start helping him, but I offered to help since I have been to his restaurant several times, and the cuisine is excellent - the best Indian food I've ever had. I would love for him to relocate to Los Angeles, so I could enjoy his food more often!

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start? Is there a particular part of Los Angeles that we should focus on? He's interested in either starting his own place with help from an investor, or joining an existing restaurant as head chef where he could also be a profit-sharing managing partner.

Many thanks for any suggestions or pointers!

Recommendations Favorite places to play chess around the city?

5 Upvotes

Where's a spot I can post up and play chess, preferably outdoors in a park or on a street corner? Bonus points if there are old folks there who like talking shit.

Board game shops and clubs are cool and I'd appreciate any recs but I'm looking for more of an informal setting. I used to have a spot in the Bay where a bunch of folks gathered on a street corner around a half dozen tables and you could just kick it with the OGs and watch the world go by. I'm looking for something like that. Some place where you could sit down with a forty in a brown paper bag and maybe a joint. I'm looking more for vibes than anything cause I suck at chess.

About L.A. SoFi Stadium tour, is it worth it?

2 Upvotes

I am visiting LA at the beginning of next April and was wanting to do a SoFi stadium tour. I was looking forward to doing the All access tour which includes going on the field etc. Unfortunately, whilst I am in LA they are only offering the standard tour. For anyone that has done the standard tour, is it worth it? The USA womens soccer team is playing a game there on the 5th, would i be better off going to see that instead?. I just want to see and get a glimpse of the stadium
