Wish you were weekend.
FROM PERKS
We’re not saying these watches are better because of their industrial-style construction. Or because they have three bold sub-dial faces. Or because they’re made with extremely lightweight and durable steel. Or crafted with supple leather straps… But we’re not not saying that either.
WONDER BAR
Meet the Traveller Bar. It’s a four-seat drinking hub made out of an old elevator car that lands at Loews Hollywood tomorrow. It’ll serve you classics like daiquiris and gin fixes while you thumb through its time-worn cocktail books. In October, it will leave town and forget to write.
OLD DOG, NEW TRICK
You don’t tend to miss oversize hot dogs serving regular-size hot dogs on LA’s streets. But you sure missed Tail O’ the Pup over the years. Well, miss no more. Because starting tomorrow, the iconic stand opens in truck form at Opening Ceremony. Truck form, but still.
WHO’S THE RASA
Tabula Rasa. It means “clean slate.” It also means new bar in Thai Town where two Bestia vets make you Cuban sandwiches to match your beer and wine before you and your friends go to Jumbo’s Clown Room. That’s, like… the real meaning.
THE PURSUIT OF HAPPY HOUR
Paley is now offering you half off your wine, drafts and cocktails every afternoon during the weekdays. Then, on the weekends, it’s flipping things and offering the same deals late at night. Things are all right in the upside down.
CHANGE REACTION
LA is changing so much these days. For example, today, Luna Park turns into Pata Salada, where you’ll have Mexican crudos and steamed mussels with fine tequila. And in the Valley, Studio City now has its own Alfred Coffee. You can’t fight change.
Hadley Tomicki lives in Los Angeles. He is probably going nowhere on the 10 Freeway this very second.
