Favorite west coast hot spot/nightclub.
It all depends on what you’re in the mood for and the night you’re choosing…LA clubs can be a messy game of musical chairs and most of the time, it feels as though it’s the same chair placed in a different place. If I want the best of everything I can imagine for 2 days a year, there is no hotter spot (literally, at 107 degrees this year) than the Annual Coachella Music and Arts Festival in Indio California. It’s the greatest show on earth.
West coast eatery that everyone must check out soon?
You’d never believe this, but the best burger on the west coast is in Santa Monica at Father’s Office on Montana. Order some yam fries while you’re at it and see how many 11% alcohol beers you can handle before realizing that you haven’t left your seat in over 3 hours. If you love incredible Mexican food and addicting margaritas, run, don’t walk to Gardens of Taxco in West Hollywood. There’s no menu so revel in your server reading you a multi course dinner that features dishes that are not only so good you want to die, but are “born in the sauce.”
West coast hidden secret?
It’s no secret, but the West Coast has the coolest movie houses ever and some of the most unique movie going experiences out there. How about seeing an old Hitchcock film in the Hollywood Cemetery with 500 friends, or a silent Buster Keaton film with live musical accompaniment in one of downtown LA’s oldest and most architecturally important movie houses, or even an old movie theatre on Catalina Island with shining stars in the ceiling and painted murals on the walls playing the most recent releases? And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Forget the multiplexes… forget Netflix. Seeing movies is a religious experience and good movie houses are like cool churches, only better. The sermon is a lot more entertaining.
What would you take with you if LA separated from the mainland and became and island?
My cat Boo, all of my close friends, my laptop, a pair of sunglasses, a copy of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and a hell of a lot of digital photos of it all going down.
