In LA, most of the restaurants are closed after midnight.

Midnight special is food truck chain open after midnight. Trucks drive around the city and offer different type of food every day.

But in other countries there are various food options after midnight. Because of that, transplanted millennials are surprised when they can’t find a place to eat in LA.

Each truck provides special food from different cultures. So every location will have different food type each day.

For transplanted millennials, it is difficult to find ingredients when they want to cook food back home. At the same time, there are many market places providing these ingredients. 

localmarket.com helps people to find ingredients for their local food.

You can search your national food through the database.

The online system shows you the recipe with ingredients. You can also find  local stores and get them delivered to your house.
