LA - DAY 2

// JUNE 29, 2017

Day 2 of LA was spent at the Museum of Ice Cream. I was able to snag two tickets when the museum extended their stay. Thank god I followed their Instagram account so I would know the time and day I would have to purchase them!

The museum was a lot of fun! This pop-up museum definitely holds up to the hype that I have seen online. As well as being an Instagram heaven location!

The boyfriend came with me. He was an amazing model for this museum trip ;)

The mint room was quite refreshing. We were given a slice of a mint mochi ice cream (drool). The mint on the right side were all sweet mint, which smelled the best. The mints on the left side had different types, which I already forgot :X. The fun thing about the planted mints is that they used cacao shells to top off the soil. So if you smell the soil, it will have a hint of chocolate. Mint chocolate. So clever!

We ended our day stopping by the LA Convention Center to pick up my Anime Expo badge, then headed to Little Tokyo to do a little bit of exploring. We found ourselves eating ramen at this pretty good place, Hakata Ikkousha

I had the Tonkontsu Standard and the boyfriend had the Tonkontsu Black. The bowl on the left is their Cha-shu Don, which is a pork rice bowl. So simple but so flavorful.
