The weekend is jovial.
You've got big plans for the summer, and you'll need to dress the part. As of right now, you'll find the likes of Patrik Ervell and Band of Outsiders marked down by as much as half-off inside Opening Ceremony.
On a rooftop overlooking Venice Beach, one hotel bar is redefining the notion of liquid brunch—by focusing on the liquid part. To get your bottomless Bloodys, mimosas or beer, you don't have to gorge on mountains of pancakes... just a quick appetizer like a charcuterie plate.
Now that your torso will be viewed by the masses for the next three months, you've been thinking you might have to lighten up on the burger-and-beer nights. Head to Culver City for M Café's macrobiotic take—for $14.95, the Big Macro Burger comes with your choice of organic beer. The beef isn't beef (it's brown rice and vegetables), but the beer's still beer.
There's a new happy hour every night at your favorite Westside piano bar—think two-for-one drinks and $12 sangria pitchers—and on Tuesdays the drink specials last all night. So basically, when you thought the holiday weekend would end Monday night, you were wrong.
Office-lunch options in Westwood are slim at best, so you'll be glad to know the Glendon Bar & Kitchen is throwing its crabcakes and Ugly Goat Pizzas (peppers, goat cheese and grilled zucchini) in the ring starting Wednesday. And yes, the bar is open.
