The weekend is more comfortable thinking in terms of Celsius.
Cocktail hour. Sometimes you need a good head start. Naturally, we’ve got a plan. For brunch: a burger, an omelet or a Hangover Burrito with bottomless mimosas to wash it down (at the swank art deco hotel, Crescent Beverly Hills). For lunch: cookies spiked with whiskey (or tequila). Execution is key.
You’ve liked Josie restaurant well enough over the years, but frankly it’s had a distinct lack of Beer & Bacon Caramel Corn. Here to correct that glaring oversight: the casual next-door restaurant called... Next Door. They also offer a rib eye and Blood Orange Manhattans. Now they’re just showing off.
If you’re looking for a Santa Barbara crash pad, Michael Bay just put his four-bedroom showstopper of a house on the market. It’s got a three-car garage, an infinity pool and walls that look like suede. Which will be great until, for no reason, it explodes.
If you’ve ever had dinner up at the Peninsula’s Roof Garden, you know how nice the view is. The view of those cabanas by the pool, that is. And now you don’t have to be a hotel guest to book one for some after-work pomegranate mojitos in the sun.
Levi’s is launching a pop-up bike shop on Saturday. At the kickoff party, you can bring in your bike for repairs, and some tailors will be around to adjust your new biker-friendly pants. Oh, and there’s also an open tequila bar—so you might want to bring a tandem bike and a designated cyclist.
When the sun’s still shining like this, you have to maintain your summer body—so stop by M Café for a chicken pot pie or a Philly cheesesteak. This being M Café (no meat, no eggs, no dairy...), neither chicken nor cheesesteak is involved here. Your abs will thank you.
