Just a beer bong away from UCLA, Westwood Boulevard just south of Wilshire (aka SoWood) offers more than Persian rugs and day spas -- but there are a lot of those too. It’s an international stretch dotted with cafes, coffee shops, and markets serving fresh produce and Middle Eastern sweets. Add renovated storefronts and New Age fitness studios, and it’s a walkable destination to get lost for a while.

Sort of like Cold Stone, only it’s not ice cream and you can eat it for breakfast. Choose from 47 different kinds of cereal, add fruit, candy and syrup toppings, then splash on your preferred dairy or soy.

A historical landmark in L.A., Crest Theatre is the uni-plex where movie dorks flock to see current box office hits. Its marquee screams old school Hollywood glamour and the starry interiors do not disappoint.

According to a recent report, people have stopped leisure reading. So, after you watch a movie and get your nails did, pop by the bookstore and pick up a novel, or novella, whatever. Just read.
