Transport your taste buds to Italy and "get woke" by ordering the affogato, ice cream frozen with liquid nitrogen and submerged in espresso. Or you can sip on a nitrogen-infused cold brew (not advised to do both for fear of never sleeping again). Like most on this list, they eschew artificial preservatives and stabilizers and use only fresh ingredients at their flagship Santa Monica store and Chino Hills location. Signature flavors include orange honey, maiz con queso (corn and cheese) and avocado. Of course it's dramatically prepared to ensure it makes it on to your Instagram feed... every mad scientist's social media dream.

EXPERT TIPS BY:
Wendy O'Dea
Los Angeles Local Expert
- Ice Cream: "Creams & Dreams is one of the few places you can sink your teeth into a macaron ice cream sandwich: liquid nitrogen-frozen ice cream between two nutty French macarons. Oui, s'il vous plait!"
- Best for Ice Cream Because: One of the first creameries around LA to start using liquid nitrogen, it's conveniently located (or inconveniently for locals) just off Third Street Promenade.
