If you always wanted to spend your summers at sleepaway camp (or were always denied an invite to all the coolest house parties), The Bungalow is for you. Vintage details, oldies music and a retro cocktail menu at this hotel-adjacent bar by the beach are so carefully curated you'll be surprised you weren't offered a post-war costume at the door. Bungalow is the perfect place to make visiting friends jealous that you live in Santa Monica while you sip a can of Golden Road and play ping pong. Arrive anytime after opening hour and you'll be waiting in line.

The Rolling Stones kicked off their tour here last week...does this mean Echo Park has now truly arrived? I love the Echo, it's very egalitarian in it's bands - always something fresh to see and hear!

Food Scene
If you're a foodie LA is the place! The food is so good here!
Mario Batali outdid himself by renovating this historical building on the corner of 7th street in downtown LA. A spill of natural light and 40' carved plaster ceilings, this location absolutely arresting. The hard wood floors and cafe tables catapult you back to the time of Bogey and Bacall. The restaurant has a great bar scene and an even better food scene. The service is impeccable, as the place is crawling with well-heeled staff. You can't go wrong with one single thing on the menu. The wood fire pizza is to die for and the butter lettuce salad is a perfect compliment to any entre. This is the perfect spot for the LA experience.

At Grand Central Market, you'll find a wide assortment of restaurants – and there is sure to be at least one that tickles your palate and isn't too hard on your wallet. Look for lean pastrami and other house-smoked meats and fish at Wexler's Deli; egg sandwiches done to perfection at Eggslut; Texas-style smoked barbecue at Horse Thief BBQ (who also have an outdoor garden and a bar); Las Morelianas, if you love authentic carnitas; and many other taste delights. For dessert, check out Valerie at GCM for baked goodies and McConnell's Fine Ice Cream, where you must try the Salted Caramel Chip and the Dark Chocolate Paso Brittle.

You can buy a computer at the apple store, get a book at Barnes and Noble, walk around eating gelato and get a pair of pants at the Gap. I mean they have it all. I love love love the farmers market for a good bite to eat and to go pick up my fruits and veggies.
