📍PLACES TO BE📍

Malibu Brewing Co

Malibu

I'm going to be here all summer long 🍺

Here's how it's going to go: spend the day at Lechuza Beach and then head to Malibu Brewing Co for a flight (my favorite was the Wild Grove) and small bites.

The perfect ending to a beach day in this idyllic new shopping center off PCH.

ROCA Pizza

Pacific Palisades

Here's your next pizza take-out spot.

ROCA just opened in Caruso's own Palisades Village. It's by the creators of CPK who were inspired by Roman-style street pizza during a recent trip to Italy. The sleek spot has all the square slices on display and nice salads to choose from as well.

Make sure to get the pepperoni hot honey slice 🍕

Cofax

Fairfax

You'll find this spot on every "best breakfast burrito in LA" list 🌯

Cofax is where you go when you need to soak up a hangover, especially with the pastrami burrito. They also just extended their hours for dinner Mon - Fri serving items like fried chicken burritos and smash burger burritos.

Don't mind if I do.

💬 ONE FINAL THING 💬

Guilty lol 😅

See ya around,
