It may be the city of lost angels, but we found heaven on a recent
naughty weekend in L.A.
eat
Even the carb-free, Zone-d out Los Angelenas line up for hours at Mario
Batali’s new Pizzeria
Mozza. We fell for the thin crust fennel sausage pizza with panna
and red onion ($14), salumi salami ($10), and great Italian wine list. www.mozza-la.com
drink
The young and the beautiful sip cocktails at the ultra-chic Cameo
Bar tucked inside the Viceroy Santa Monica hotel. Apple green and
dusky grey accent the mid-Twentieth Century English Parlor theme, and
it’s dark enough to allow for a side of naughty behaviour (à la L.A.
starlet) with your Grey Goose bottle service. www.viceroysantamonica.com
shop
There’s a new breed of boutique hitting North America en masse and Madison
Los Angeles is a prime example. Think must-have haute designers like
Viktor & Rolf and Dolce & Gabbana paired with cult faves like Vanessa
Bruno and Geren Ford. The rocker staff and pumping DJ AM-esque music
complete the ultimate la la land shopping experience. www.madisonlosangeles.com
sleep
In true L.A. fashion check you and your beau into rehab–electronic
rehab that is, with the Fairmont
Miramar Hotel’s Electronic Rehab Weekend. Staff will help you hand
over your iBook, BlackBerry and Motorola Razr and keep them locked up
tight, while you enjoy some well-deserved R&R on your oceanfront
balcony. Through July 31, 2007; rates from $319US. www.fairmont.com
