Broken Spanish

For modern Mexican fare

Chef Ray Garcia prepares dishes like oxtail quesadilla and chicharrón with elephant garlic mojo and radish sprouts, served up in a clean-lined space with cognac-hued tufted banquettes, hardwood floors, hanging plants and concrete accent walls.

1050 S. Flower St., Los Angeles 213-749-1460 brokenspanish.com

Bestia

For critically acclaimed Italian

Conceived by husband-and-wife duo Ori Menashe and Genevieve Gergis, this rustic Italian go-to in the Arts District specializes in handmade pasta, pizza and charcuterie. Inside a repurposed warehouse, exposed brick walls, industrial bar stools and tan leather booths serve as the backdrop for inventive dishes like roasted bone marrow with crispy bread crumbs.

2121 E. 7th Pl., Los Angeles 213-514-5724 bestiala.com

For panoramic views

E.P. & L.P.

For late-night bites

For the pastrami sandwich

An Angeleno institution for over 70 years, this family-owned deli in MacArthur Park has built an international reputation as one of world’s leading purveyors of pastrami.

704 S. Alvarado St., Los Angeles 213-483-8050 langersdeli.com

Clifton's Republic

For a unique dining experience

This 47,000-square-foot dining complex originally opened in 1935. The iconic establishment reopened its doors in 2015 after a five-year, multi-million renovation and houses an art deco-style cafeteria, six bars, a ballroom and a coffee shop. Inside, you’ll find updated versions of Clifton’s original curiosities, from manmade waterfalls and wildlife murals to a faux, three-storey redwood tree.

648 S. Broadway, Los Angeles 213-613-0000 cliftonsla.com

Dinosaur Coffee

For third-wave coffee

Los Angeles has no shortage of clinically precise caffeine labs, but if you’re looking to stay a while, this sun-filled coffee counter in Silver Lake is a cut above the rest. Dinosaur’s casual atmosphere and ample seating make it an ideal spot to feel like a local.

4334 W. Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles dinosaurcoffee.com

Tacos Tumbras a Tomas

317 S. Broadway, Los Angeles 213-620-1071 grandcentralmarket.com

Freedman's

For the potato latkes and natural wine

Bruce Hornsby and the Talking Heads play through the speakers as diners dig into plates of glazed brisket and potato latkes (famously prepared in a waffle iron) at this modern Jewish restaurant tucked into a strip mall in Silver Lake. The half sour salad – made with pickles, fennel and a savoury herb mix – balances out the menu’s heavier fare, and Matt Bone, Freedman’s general manager, curates an impressive all-natural wine list.

2619 Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles 213-500-0916 freedmansla.com

Griffith Park

For a breath of fresh air

This 4,210-acre reserve is home to infinite hiking trails, a swimming pool, hidden gardens, tennis courts, a candy-striped carousel and even the original Batcave. Head to the Griffith Observatory to gaze through telescopes, explore cosmic exhibits and enjoy some of the best views of the city.

4730 Crystal Springs Dr., Los Angeles 323-644-2050 laparks.org/griffithpark

For the laughs

The undisputed epicentre of L.A.’s thriving comedy scene, UCB’s first West Coast outpost plays host to a nightly mélange of stand-up, improv and sketch comedy in an intimate 92-seat theatre. Sit stage-side as sitcom A-listers and tomorrow’s top talent spin their latest yarns, all for $12 or less.

5919 Franklin Ave., Los Angeles 323-908-8702 franklin.ucbtheatre.com

For family-friendly fun

For a taste of SoCal’s coastal culture, head west on Interstate 10 toward Santa Monica State Beach. The world-famous Santa Monica Pier bisects a 5.6-kilometre stretch of sand and features a full-service amusement park, arcade games, a hands-on aquarium and a hand-carved carousel.

Santa Monica Pier, Los Angeles 310-458-8900 santamonicapier.org

The Broad

For the contemporary art

Amoeba Music

For crate digging

The largest independent record store in the world, this Hollywood musical landmark occupies an airplane-hangar-size space on Sunset and Cahuenga. Its collection of new and used CDs, LPs and DVDs is a collector’s paradise.

6400 Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles 323-245-6400 amoeba.com

Tortoise General Store

For a souvenir

Located in Venice Beach, the retail utopia of the Westside, this Japanese housewares store is a much-loved destination among L.A.’s design obsessives and regular locals alike.

The Line L.A.

For the minimalist design

Holding its own amid the high-rises of Wilshire Boulevard, the 12-storey Line hotel has 388 rooms – concrete boxes brightened up by Aztec-inspired furnishings, original watercolour works by local artists and floor-to-ceiling windows (ask for a view of the Hollywood Hills). There’s also a fleet of Venice’s own Linus bikes available to guests.

3515 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles 213-381-7411 thelinehotel.com

Ace Hotel Downtown Los Angeles

For the cinematic history

Since opening in 2014, the hotel’s purposefully shambolic design and rooftop pool and bar have made it a hipster haven. But the real draw is the theatre: Built in 1927, it was the flagship for Charlie Chaplin’s United Artists film studio. Today, the 1,600-seat venue, masterfully restored and over-the-top ornate, is a hub for live music, film and the performing arts.

929 S. Broadway, Los Angeles 213-623-3233 acehotel.com/losangeles

8300 Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles 323-650-9090 standardhotels.com

Andaz West Hollywood

For the rooftop pool

This hotel has been witness to some serious rock ’n’ roll history: It was once known as the Riot House, and the late Led Zeppelin drummer, John Bonham, was rumoured to have driven a motorcycle through the hallways. Today, the Andaz strikes a subdued and sophisticated note in the heart of the Sunset Strip. Head to the rooftop pool deck before dark, where you can get a glimpse of L.A.’s mid-century marvel, the Stahl House.

8401 Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles 323-656-1234 westhollywood.andaz.hyatt.com
