Hot Spots in Hollywood

When clubbing gets old, and hitting up the best restaurant in Hollywood is a little overdone, there's always something new to be found in Tinseltown. Hollywood is known for it's best-kept secrets, including the best places to hang/eat out.


Sprinkles
9635 Little Santa Monica Blvd.

Cupcakes can be found on every corner on the West Coast, but in California they're the newest treat to tempt our taste buds. With flavors like apple pie, peanut butter cup, and Neapolitan, Sprinkles is a little hideaway in Beverly Hills with sprinkles from France and fun creativity.


Los Angeles Farmers Market
6333 West Third St.


This Farmers Market has been hanging around for over 75 years with quaint little shops, and other larger stores, like Zara's. There's salons, jewelry stores, fresh produce, and even a butcher shop. It's a great place just to roam around and dabble in a few of their jewels.


Hollywood Wax Museum
6767 Hollywood Blvd.

The Hollywood Wax Museum is home to faux celebrities who all look extremely identical to who their modeled after. Wax figures of the rich and famous date back to the 1940s and it's the first wax museum of the other related locations across the country.


Hollywood Park
1050 South Prairie Ave.

Even if it's just to wear one of those fabulous hats, attend a horse race at Hollywood Park for something different. Dress up and bid on a horse while you watch them race.


The Silent Theatre
611 N. Fairfax Ave.

The theatre is over 60 years old with vintage art deco and more films and art presented than just silent films. With visitors like Maurice Sendak (the author of Where The Wild Things Are) and comedy nights where Pee-Wee's Big Adventure is shown, there's always something different and interesting going on here.


The Arboretum & Botanic Garden
301 North Baldwin Ave.


Walk on the wild side in 127 acres of the Botanic Garden and enjoy unique plants and waterfalls you can't find anywhere else. In a city full of smog, it's refreshing and peaceful here with ongoing events, art classes, and art sculptures throughout the garden.
