The 16 Best Restaurants In North Hollywood

"Much like jury duty or reading Animal Farm in school, experiencing the Thai street food market at Wat Thai should be a citywide mandate. Every weekend, this Buddhist temple hosts nearly a dozen food vendors in its parking lot, and locals show up by 9am to beat the lines. On the menu is everything from mango sticky rice and BBQ beef skewers to spicy som tum and duck noodle soup, and the most popular stalls tend to sell out by noon. If you get excited about dining at picnic tables covered in street food, Wat Thai will give you goosebumps. Just remember that it’s cash only and you’ll need to exchange your money for $1-$2 tokens that you’ll use to order food." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren, garrett snyder
