This loops around the entirety of Signal Hill, but an easy hike. Somewhat steep and precarious in sections but extremely worth it for the amazing sea and city views!!! Definitely recommend.

This tiny restaurant is an absolute GEM of the city. Run by an afghan couple, the food is simply amazing. For those who haven't tried this food before, its kind of a combo of Indian and Lebanese.
