There's is one sweet treat of cinnamon that can't be beat in SoCal, the churro. And Churro Borough has a whole restaurant around the lengthy filler-upper. The mother watering treat comes with ice cream if you order the "original." The churro take on a cookie form in that version of the treat.

Shake Shack

8520 Santa Monica Blvd

West Hollywood, CA 90069

The burger joint franchise that everyone was talking about is still quite busy with wait times. What makes this place so special still might be the hype. Enough people seem to like their take on burgers enough for it to stay open.

They not only serve their acclaimed burgers and shakes, which are actually made of custard and LA has it's own, the Shack Attack LA Edition, they also have hot-dogs, chicken, beer & wine and yes, even dog treats.

This ice cream serves it's frozen goodness in-between funnel cakes. A fast roll out selection means there's always something new to try.

*Funnel cake sandwiches on only Wednesdays, at certain times, called ahead.

Fosselman’s Ice Cream

Alhambra, CA 91801

Wait, there's something else to do that close to Nucleus. The city of Alhambra has about nothing going for it other than Nucleus and a Heavy Metal themed burger joint, Grill ‘Em All, the city also bares a good ol' fashioned Ice Cream parlor.

Over 48 flavors await you and they of course make banana splits, shake and malts and other old time favorites. It's also a candy shop too, get ready for a brain freeze and a sugar rush!

Jurassic Restaurant

15301 Gale Ave

City of Industry, CA 91745

(626) 336-5899

A dinosaur themed restaurant with Gothic Lolita servers that serves Thai food. I've been asked about this one a lot.  It's all concept and nothing beyond that, you're going there for it's looks and looks like it has a T- Rex Skeleton.

*There's huge problems with its times. On its website, when it's up, the times don't always accurately tell when it's open and calling doesn't help much either. Have a back-up place in mind if you're driving all the way out to it.
