🥑 I don't care if avo toast is basic

Pickleball courts, natural wine tasting, & a boardwalk party

There are so many fun, little streets in LA. Which is why I made this fun, little video about them. Why not pick one this week that you haven't been to yet and explore? 

Also, if you're looking to unpack your latest dating trauma with your bestie, here are my recs on where to go. We all need a cleansing gossip session once in a while.

📍PLACES TO BE📍

Night + Market

Venice, West Hollywood, and Silver Lake

If you're looking for a quiet restaurant to have a chill night at, then this isn't the place for you.

Yet, if you're looking for a rowdy group dinner, loud ass music, and spicy af Thai Food, then Night + Market is your answer. It's a great birthday dinner option.

You gotta get the crispy rice salad, larb gai, and their unique chicken pad thai. 

Lolo Wine Bar

East Hollywood

The first time I went to this natural wine bar, I knew it was going to be in my "places to meet a friend at" rotation. Lolo Wine Bar is French bistro adjacent with an excellent bottle shop inside.

Elite patio, funky wine, and pasta that surprises you. Any place with Bub and Grandma's bread on the menu is doing something right.

Oh, also, whoever is running their Instagram deserves a raise. Their captions never fail to make me giggle.

Bravo Toast

West Hollywood

My millennial is showing because...Bravo Toast is excellent. I don't care if avo toast is basic, it's delicious, and that's a fact.

This place is a weekend staple. The Green Goddess and Bagel Toasts are standouts, and don't forget to get their Doheny Latte.

💬 ONE FINAL THING 💬

@InterviewingStrangers on TikTok made this Silverlake Starter Pack. Accurate?

See ya around,
