events and weather in LA

HELLO ANGELENOS!!! It's Valentines Day week, which means I'm.... staying home and pouring myself into work subconsciously hoping I'll find love when I've accomplished enough to be worthy of it. Just kidding, but kind of not at all.

Anyway... there's a ton going on this week, especially Frieze LA and LA Art Week - check out Arkive and LA Art Show for a great list of events for these.

WHAT'S POPPIN IN LA

    • Olivietta - fancy european food. (one of our LPs owns this restaurant but I'd still recommend it!)

    • Eataly - I did a "choose your own adventure" italian cooking night with my girlfriend at the time last year and it was a hit. Basically buy a bunch of random italian ingredients, drink a bunch of wine, and cook whatever feels good - you can't mess up because italian food is all the same. Never forget the flowers gentlemen.

    • Chick-fil-a - Dress up nice and bring a table cloth, place settings, and some other items for ambiance and set it up inside a Chick-fil-a. Joking. But kinda not - if you do this PLEASE send pics.
