With new spots opening, seemingly, always, sunny, summery SoCal is so worth a visit.
stay: We’ve been waiting with bated breath for the unveiling this month of L’Horizon—a mid-century modern hotel masterpiece reinvented by storied L.A. designer Steve Hermann. New are a stunning row of tented cabanas at the infinity pool, a tented spa and a plein-air restaurant. The bungalow-style rooms have been updated with new floors and brass bathroom fixtures, while the architectural integrity has been kept intact. This adult-only oasis is instantly the chic-est sleep in the city. L’Horizon, 1050 E Palm Canyon Dr., Palm Springs, 760-323-1858, lhorizonpalmsprings.com
dine: The new Rooster and the Pig bills itself as Vietnamese-American street food with a focus on fresh ingredients and shareable dishes like pork lettuce wraps, crispy fish rolls and green papaya salad, all under $10. Get there close to opening time, or be prepared to line up. Rooster and the Pig, 356 S Indian Canyon Dr., Palm Springs, 760-832-6691, www.roosterandthepig.com
play: Hipsters from Vancouver to West Hollywood refuel at Ernest Coffee on Stumptown coffee by day and, by night, craft rum at adjoining club, Bootlegger Tiki. Co-owned by former Vancouverite and photographer Jaime Kowal (who also owns the boutique Amado Hotel) with her architect business partner, it’s the cool-and-creative hub of the Springs. Ernest Coffee, 1101 N Palm Canyon Dr., Palm Springs, 760-318-4154, www.ernestcoffee.com
brunch: The newly rebranded Avalon Hotel (once the Viceroy) has moved more of its restaurant seating outside, either poolside or in a new tented space filled with embroidered throw pillows, tie-dye runners and gold flatware. The menu at Chi Chi Restaurant is by chef Tara Lazare, who is rapidly expanding her fempire of SoCal cuisine, F10 Creative. Waiters here wear white sneaks—all the faster to whisk shrimp burgers and fresh peach mimosas to your table. Avalon Hotel, 415 S Belardo Rd., Palm Springs, 760-320-4117, www.avalonpalmsprings.com
drink: While Mr. Lyons, a reimagined steakhouse from F10 Creative, has elevated the dining options several notches (and by several zeros), we prefer the adjoining bar, called The Lounge, for quiet tête-a-têtes and classic cocktails. Mr. Lyons Steakhouse, 233 E Palm Canyon Dr., Palm Springs, 760-327-1551, www.mrlyonsps.com
party: Karaoke night at the Ace Hotel is where you can mingle with locals or just sit poolside eating juicy tacos from a new menu by Brooklyn’s Five Leaves (the late Heath Leger’s concept). Sit back, relax and watch all the craziness ensue, knowing that—as the sign outside says— “Everything will be OK.” Ace Hotel, 701 E Palm Canyon Dr., Palm Springs, 760-325-9900, www.acehotel.com

‘사진 같아 보이는’ 레플 말고, ‘실제로 좋은’ 레플을 찾고 싶다면
내용
레플리카의 가장 큰 함정 중 하나는
사진은 멀쩡해 보이는데 실제로는 완성도가 낮다는 것입니다.
조명 각도를 잘 맞추면
웬만한 저퀄도 멋있게 보일 수 있기 때문입니다.
69티비는 사진이 아니라
실사용 후기·직접 촬영한 디테일 컷·비교 이미지 등을 통해
실제 완성도를 판단할 수 있는 자료를 제공합니다.
광택, 패턴 간격, 엣지 마감처럼
실물에서만 확인할 수 있는 요소들을
정확히 보여주는 것이 강점입니다.
구매 이후 첫인상,
장기간 사용했을 때의 내구성까지
실사용 평가가 많아
현실적인 기준을 세울 수 있습니다.
무료웹툰·해외골프여행 콘텐츠도 있어
역시 방문할 때마다 즐길 수 있습니다.
사진이 아니라 실제 ‘품질’을 보고 선택하고 싶다면
69티비가 제대로 된 판단 기준을 제공합니다.
