Great food, dozens of different open-air restaurants. Argentinian, Middle Eastern, incredible Mexican, Creole, Chinese, French, diners, bars, everything.

You can also buy truly hideous souvenirs here, snow globes with palm trees, bare-breasted salt and pepper shakers, kittens made of rabbit fur (eeek!) deeply un-chic, and perfect gifts for your boss.

It's next to the newer open-air shopping mall called "The Grove", as in Coconut, I expect, not Notting Hill. There you can find a big department store and tons of Gap, Crate and Barrel, Anthropologie type shops.

Great inexpensive day and or evening out.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2669 Little Saigon http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9295 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9295 Slauson Mall http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9294 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9294
