The Royal, The Santa Monica and The Music Hall have unique and special screenings that you won't find in big blockbuster movie theaters. The Laemmle family has a long history in Hollywood Cinema and one of them used to be our neighbor.

Either go there to dine after viewing UCLA Hammer - or just pick up a freshly made pizza to reheat later on.

Walking distance from the house (on Constellation Blvd.) and right next to The Annenberg Space for Photography. Excellent HAPPY HOUR and a great night spot for dessert if you cannot afford dinner.

The menu is super unique and fresh and deliciously seasoned. Try the mushroom veggie ramen dish - you will be amazed at the market fresh produce plus flavorful broth and noodles. And for $6.00 more a few pieces of spicy friend chicken make this a memorable meal. Up and down Sawtelle are places galore to drink beforehand or afterwards. Directly across the street is B Sweet Dessert Bar!

If you are on a budget - skip the restaurant. But make a stop on the first floor to get tastings of the Gelato. Take the spiral staircase and stop off for specialized coffee. Then wander around the markets for produce - sandwiches - pizza- roasted chicken and sides. Check out the italian sodas. It's really amazing!

I have season tickets to LA Opera and also The Gloria Kaufman Dance Program @ Dorothy Chandler Pavillion. You can also get last minute tickets to LA Philharmonic - which my parents adore when they come to visit Los Angeles.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is an historic and elegant Bar/Lounge. Not at all "Hollywood" the crowd is chill and easygoing. Thursday nights they have LIVE JAZZ which is amazing. Signature cocktail list is inventive and reasonably priced - appetizers and entrees offer plenty to nibble on. A truly cozy and inviting old school 'speak easy' vibe. Equally suitable for someone out for the night on their own, or meeting up with a handful of friends to chat and enjoy.
