Share a bone-in rib-eye for two with french fries and creamed spinach. Heaven on earth. If there aren't any tables, sit at the bar. It's better!

Groceries
Whole Foods Market
7871 Santa Monica BlvdGood all around quality. Limited Variety
Bristol Farms Westwood
1515 Westwood BlvdGood Quality, good butcher.
For advanced grill-masters. This is THE place to get meat. I don't recommend going there on Friday. The traffic can be horrendous.
El Gaucho Meat Market
2715 Manhattan Beach BlvdFor advanced grill-masters. This is THE place to get meat. I don't recommend going there on Friday. The traffic can be horrendous.
Located a couple blocks away! Just walk down Sandal Ln and continue very carefully as the road becomes a trail. The market is on Beverly Glen. I've personally never had trouble getting an uber but guests have reported difficulties. If that is ever the case, simply walk down to Glen Market and order the Uber to that location. If it's dark make sure you take a flashlight and careful not to slip!

Museums
My favorite museum in LA is actually in beautiful downtown Pasadena.
You will find a remarkable variety of 20th Century art such as Degas, Renoir, Picasso and Van Gogh. Wait til you see the quality of the works. It's a 50 minute drive but parking is easy once you get there.
Tip: Treat yourself to a nice lunch at 'Il Fornaio' afterwards.

10 minutes away, this museums offer a very nice facility, a great coffee shop and an amazing gift shop. You will usually find temporary exhibits of current -often conceptual- art. Half of the time you leave the place scratching your head wondering what it all means but, it's sooo convenient, and free:)

Fun fun fun for the whole family. There's nothing quite like LACMA. It's a must see for any serious lover of art. It's big. I recommend visiting the Serra Sculptures. There's something for everyone there.
