The Backstage Bar & Grill is a legendary place that's been around for over 70 years. Located across the street from Sony Studios, The Backstage has always been a studio hangout, but now it's also a favorite spot for birthday and private parties. There is no minimum, room fee or any hidden charges. My kind of place! The Backstage is the top spot on the Westside for sports. They show all the games all the time in HD on 10 plasmas. Their food has been named the Best Bar Food In Los Angeles, they are the only bar kitchen in history without a freezer or microwave. Check out the Menu. The Backstage is cool and laid back; dim lighting, cheap drinks, a cozy firepit & the friendliest staff in town.

So you're going to miss Gramma's turkey and dressing...no sweat. They've got that covered! Mary Jane's Coffee Shop adds their own twist to Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner.
And I'm sure Gramma doesn't make a mean raspberry lemondrop martini like the rooftop Moonstone Lounge. Don't worry. The fire pits and heat lamps will keep you warm.

Fairly new to Koreatown is HAUS, the all-dessert boutique. I passed by this past Wednesday and the place was packed, inside and out. Inside are tables and big stylish sofas, where dessert fans can indulge on chocolate soufflé, passion fruit-mango cake and apricot crème brulée tart, along with an assortment of teas and coffees, all while listening to the sounds of Chingy and Lupe Fiasco. There's plenty of patio seating outside, and one of the tables features its own fire pit. Valet parking is also available.
But the best attribute Haus has to offer is the service buzzer attached to every table, which has three buttons: "Call," "Water" and "Bill." You won't get much service unless you use it. When you're ready to order, hit "Call" and a waiter comes directly to the table. Want water? Push the button and the next thing you know you have a glass of water in hand. Ready for the bill? Hit "Bill" and you're on your way. I think I need a few of these magic buttons in my life. 






Bottle Rock is a combination wine retailer, tasting room, and small plates cafe, with over 800 wines from around the world, as well as beer and sake. Bottle Rock offers artisanal cheese, charcuterie (meat), and gourmet chocolate plates. They also have a (very) small plates menu, including bruscetta, mozzarella caprese, and my favorite, the petite lollipop chops. (Beware, if you are hungry, please get a real bite to eat before heading to Bottle Rock. They aren't called a small plates cafe for nothing!) Bottle Rock is a bit pricey, but it's definitely a great place to go hang out with friends and chat over a glass of wine or frosty mug of beer on a Friday night. Try the $18 a glass Bardessono Vineyard Cabernet. It's one of the smoothest cabs I've ever tasted.
Bottle Rock also offers Saturday wine tastings from 1pm-4pm and is located at 3847 Main Street in Culver City. Call (310) 836-WINE (9463) or click the title link for more info.
