Los Angeles's 22 Greatest Restaurants
"Before Wolfgang Puck was on TV, opening airport restaurants around the world, or teaching online cooking classes, he was pioneering the brand of casual elegance at Spago that now describes much of Los Angeles. When the restaurant opened in 1982, Puck was one of a handful of chefs pioneering “California cuisine,” making use of the state’s bountiful produce in combination with Asian and European techniques. The results are legendary, such as the famed smoked salmon pizza with crème fraîche, salmon roe, and red onion."

"Reservations required weeks in advance unless your name is Leonardo Di Caprio or similar, at Spago you can eat a very good Italian inspired meal. It’s a cool place the one where people go if they want to be seen so sneakers do not go well. Put it in your list for a real treat when in LA!"

"Beverly HillsCurtis Stone’s fine dining spot, with a rotating menu influenced by wine regionsThis intimate, 24-seat, Michelin-starred restaurant in the heart of Beverly Hills is the brainchild of celebrity chef Curtis Stone. Since the menu changes four times a year, it’s got lots of replay value -- important, if you and your date are looking for “your” restaurant. Stone and his team travel to leading wine regions in search of inspiration, crafting unique tasting menus that help guide diners on a culinary journey through that particular region."

Hot Fun in Malibu: The Best Attractions in SoCal's Famous Beach Playground
"The Carbon Beach Club Restaurant is one of the most romantic places in Southern California to while away an afternoon. Located on the beach overlooking the Malibu Pier, the restaurant is part of the Malibu Beach Inn, a lovely boutique hotel. At the restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and/or drinks (if that's all you're in the mood for), you'll be swept up into the wonderfulness of it all, watching the waves crash along the shoreline, seeing the birds swoop and soar overhead and, if you are really having a lucky date, catching a humpback whale breach as it makes it way along the shoreline during migration seasons."
