    Folks from outside of LA: stop trying to make LA what it isn't. A thread.

        New Yorkers, we don't have bacon egg and cheese from bodegas here. We have NY pizza and bagels that are equally perfect, but be open to trying them.

        Southerners, we don't have barbecue like yours. You just need to know where to find the good places tho. LA is massive, so no, you haven't tried all the spots.

        DC Metro area crew: our seafood is not like your seafood. But our West Coast options are outstanding. Just different.

        Texas folks: we aren't a huge Tex-Mex kind of city. A few restaurants are out here, but not really. And all of this is okay.

        We're LA. I don't demand Taiwanese breakfast in Atlanta. Or breakfast burritos in South Carolina. Or mariscos in NYC. I want to try food that your city excels at instead of placing my LA-centric view on your city. You also might miss out on something spectacular. /fin

        I have enjoyed SO much good food in LA. I think it helps to know a local who knows the city well and goes off the beaten path
