Wonderful small production winery with great Pinot- the standout being the Charles vineyard. Really friendly tasting service as well.
Decent pizza where the toppings and flavor are more interesting than the crust. Friendly and really quick staff.
Good big beach for kids and you can usually find street parking along 8th on weekday mornings. Easy walk to the pier from here.
Great wide beach that is perfect for social distancing during the week with tons of ample parking. And it’s got planes taking off which is cool for kids.
Great small family zoo in a really stunning location. Wonderfully landscaped and great for an early morning or afternoon kid outing.
Good place for a drink with co-workers when here for a conference. Could use a better draft beer selection.
Giant and interesting ship to walk around and explore- the officers quarters are interesting. And great view on the top deck at night.
By far one of the best wineries in the valley. The white pinot noir is an outstanding surprise as is the estate red Pinot. Doug is awesome as is the little cottage you can stay in on via Airbnb.
Nice place for an afternoon drink and snack with lots of outside seating in the sweet sweet SoCal sun. A great place to escape to from your conference.
Good conference facilities that are right on the bay. Lovely to be able to get a break from the recycled air and be outside in a welcoming environment.
Beautiful views over the bay and decent drinks. Good for a nightcap if here for a conference.
Good location that is close to everything downtown. Try for one of the north facing rooms on the higher floors with a little bit of a balcony - great for sitting out late at night.
Beautiful Art Deco theater for touring shows. The balcony seats are pretty far away, but it’s still great. The lobby is spacious and very cool.
Great venue to see the NY Phil or any of the traveling orchestras that Linc Inc brings in. Nice outdoor terrace as well.
Good little gem of a museum on the way to the Adirondacks. Usually with some pretty compelling temporary exhibitions.
Wonderful collection of multiple telescopes and observatories. Lots of history and some amazing view over LA and the San Gabriel’s. Very cool on days when they are open.
The best restaurant in LA by far. Tremendously inventive cuisine that is worth the money and the pretense. Go for the after dinner add on in the garden, it’s worth it.
Awesome food hall with so many options of cuisine it’s hard to make a decision. So try them all.
Stunningly beautiful interior you’ve seen in hundreds of films. Go walk around on a lunch break and take thousands of photos.
