"Sapp is famous for its spinach-tinted jade noodles topped with a medley of barbecue pork, roast duck, and crab meat, but one would be hard-pressed to find a dud on the menu. Though original owner Jin has retired and moved back to Bangkok, her family members continue to run this classic all-day Thai restaurant. From pad kra pao to an intensely fragrant boat noodle, everything is fair game at this Hollywood staple that won the hearts of Jonathan Gold and Anthony Bourdain over the years. If it’s really hot out, ask for an order of iced longan juice, something Jin used to give her regulars back in the day." - Kat Thompson
