Yes, the traffic can be quite bad, but in my experience heading to the airport early helps a lot (about 3 hours earlier). The queue at the airport security is a nightmare- the last time I was there there was a blackout at one of the checkpoints, then they had to move everyone to another. I nearly missed my flight connection to Tokyo.

On the subject of a nice restaurant, I was at Beverly Hills two years back and there was an Italian restaurant called Il Fornaio (just looked up Google Maps- 301 N Beverly Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210). The food was excellent, and with two glasses of wine came up to be about USD 150 for two people (I thought it was quite alright).

That's too bad!

Especially, spring vacation is coming soom.It would be crowded.

Thank you for your helpful information.
