If you want to witness what architecture is about, visit SCI-Arc. This is where I went to school ,and I can tell you there is not one day that you will not be surprise what goes on inside this school. From open to the public lectures every wednesday to galleries and installation, and not to mention the student work.

This is the place you want to go to have a awesome brunch. Be prepared for a waiting line outside on the weekends. The place is packed then. My personal favorites is the Polenta with Maple syrup, bacon, spinach and chicken apple sausage. If you had a rough night before I would suggest the "Hangover Helper", with the bottomless fresh mint-lemonade. Always does the trick.

Lovely food, superfriendly, good-looking space with great music.

I go shopping there for veggies and bread but always leave the store with a little more than that.

Old Bat cave and filming location in grifith park in los angeles. there is a nice hike to get to the cave, and it is a unique history to the place imbued with Hollywood remnants.
