I love the Library Bar for its awesome beer selection, which was hand-selected by the Beer Chick herself, Christina Perozzi, the former bar manager of Father’s Office. But turns out they now have a brand-new specialty cocktails list. For me? You shouldn’t have. The good news? There are 10 lovely old-school-inspired concoctions to choose from,…

Nikki's Local 72: To Happy Hour or Not Happy Hour?
I’m torn because I think I just had the worst happy experience ever. But I can’t chalk it up to a place I’ll never go to again because of its AMAZING dessert, pretty tasty appetizers and unusual events. I dropped by Nikki’s in Venice for its happy hour: 1/2 off appetizers and two-for-one well and…
This Weekend: Your Prom Queen's Suggestions
So many parties this weekend! Too bad I’m going to be out in the desert somewhere pitching tents and roasting smores and… suffering from a state of unpluggedness. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to enjoy all the fun in town. Go, and please tell me about it. I’ll party vicariously through you….
Stoli Hotel: The Lux-Faux Hotel That Vodka Built
Just what is that Stoli Hotel you see and hear about everywhere? I even saw it on an animated billboard near my apartment. At this point you probably already know that it’s not a real hotel, but rather an invitation-only hotel concept party that travels from city to city. Currently it has taken up a…
Seven Grand Opening Night Party
I wonder if anyone has fallen down those stairs at Seven Grand yet? It just opened last month with its official debut last Thursday, but mixing whiskey, scotch or bourbon with four flights of dimly lit stairs can’t be good. AND there’s no elevator. I guess that’s one way to ensure that people won’t drive…
This Weekend: Don't Take Your Mama Out
Mom gets one special day this weekend. Maybe a couple of hours at the most for that thanks-for-being-my-mom Sunday brunch where you have to be her little sunshine. But what do you do all the other hours of the weekend when you’re itching to be your dark and drunk self? I got some ideas for…
FREE Cocktails and Perez Hilton at the Key Club
This is for my bro who, like many, is a dirty dirty Perez Hilton addict. But tonight’s his (and your) chance to meet the world’s most (in)famous blogger as Perez hosts YRB Magazine‘s May/June issue release party at Key Club. If celebrity gossip isn’t your thang and you don’t know who Perez is let alone…
Bodega Wine Bar: Tuesday's Bottle o' Wine for $20
Not only do I love Bodega Wine Bar for their fab happy hour ($5 glass of wine, $13 carafe, $21 bottle, $3 appetizers) but they now how these great specialty nights to further entice me into becoming a big, fat wino. Thursday nights feature KCRW dj Cathy Tamkin and Sundays are Service Industry Night where…
For Yo Mama: Sheckys and Fashion Elements Sales
Flickr Shot by sweetpe184 Sample sales. I never understood why anyone would charge you good money to rummage through many piles of stuff. That’s why you gotta love Goldstar Events. You can purchase tickets or “purchase” tickets for some pretty cool sample sales for discounted prices. Sometimes you can get in for free! Just in…
Experimenting in the Woods Cocktail Lounge
Last night I did something I’ve never done before. I wasted a full glass of Jameson and ginger ale. I know, I know. I’m crying inside. I tried to palm it off on my drinking companions but they, too, already had their fill of cocktails at the Woods. It didn’t help that Jason, the tattooed-covered…
