Hanukkah in Los Angeles just wouldn't be complete without the city's best latkes (we know—like you needed an excuse to eat fried potatoes). Prepare to celebrate the festival of light with latkes and kosher plates from the best restaurants in Los Angeles, and make sure you don't forget wine. Make a stop at one of LA's best gift shops to impress your host or the kids after a couple rounds of dreidel.
