"hookah" waterpipe in L.A.?
 

Message: Hi<BR><BR>I'm in L.A. and looking for a cafe or a restaurant that has "hookah" (mid-eastern traditional waterpipe) to serve their customer. If anyone knows where they are, could you please tell me?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR><BR>Rak

Hollywood Canteen ,1006, N.Seward and Sami's International Club ( a storefront operation in East Hollywood-you may actually have to be a member)-it's on Kenmore and Hollywood) offer hookahs.

Waterpipe? Isn't it used for opium? Or some other narcotics' smokers?

Confused,<BR>Waterpipes are also used to smoke tobacco; usually flavored tabacco, which is probably why,Raxx, you won't find them in a restaurant;only in clubs.<BR><BR>M.

Go to the Gypsy Cafe in Westwood, near the Mann Village & Mann Bruin theaters, off Le Conte Avenue and Westwood Blvd. I see people using them at their outdoor tables.
