I'm not sure how many of you are familiar with Porto's Bakery, but it is a Cuban bakery/restaurant with three locations around L.A. county and it is wonderful! The menu has lots of Cuban food, but their specialty is the wonderful pastry selection. Believe me, it is not uncommon to encounter long lines at any of their locations, but it is well worth it! -- The Episodic Eater

Want to eat in a velvet tent with painted ceilings? Look no further than this fun Beverly Hills restaurant! You must love garlic though (and be careful, it stays in your pours).

Arts & Culture

Since its inception in 1965, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) has been devoted to collecting works of art that span both history and geography, in addition to representing Los Angeles's uniquely diverse population. Today LACMA is the largest art museum in the western United States, with a collection that includes nearly 130,000 objects dating from antiquity to the present, encompassing the geographic world and nearly the entire history of art. Among the museum’s strengths are its holdings of Asian art, Latin American art, ranging from pre-Columbian masterpieces to works by leading modern and contemporary artists; and Islamic art, of which LACMA hosts one of the most significant collections in the world. A museum of international stature as well as a vital part of Southern California, LACMA shares its vast collections through exhibitions, public programs, and research facilities that attract over a million visitors annually, in addition to serving millions through digital initiatives, such as online collections, scholarly catalogues, and interactive engagement at lacma.org. Situated in Hancock Park on over 20 acres in the heart of Los Angeles, LACMA is located between the ocean and downtown. This is also home to the famous lamp posts exhibit that (especially in evening) make for beautiful photos!
