I asked my friend Ethan Peck, a tremendous actor, to go watch The Master there, and he came back at me with all these requirements about how close we’d sit to the screen and whether or not the sound was going to be the highest quality. And ArcLight is a theatre for serious movie-goers. I like being around people, I like to see the Tesla cars and fantasize about owning one, and then I like to see movies and fantasize about something else. I love Century City AMC because it’s in that mall. You go when it’s pitch dark, stand on the terrace level, and watch the sun come over the horizon. We’ve been three or four times now, though. I was sick until 2:45 in the morning and we were supposed to be there at 5 a.m., and I was worried she’d think I was a flake. She wanted to take me on a date there, and I ended up getting food poising the first time we tried to go. I only go for sunrises, and occasionally sunsets. They pride themselves on the ingredients, and on the weekend they do chicken and waffles. It’s a really beautiful café the owners did a great job styling it, and the food is incredible. Sweet Butter opened up recently right on Ventura. I love breakfast-I like going to sleep at night because I know I get to wake up and eat in the morning. I caught him buying another one on his way home. I took a buddy from out of town there and ordered him one, and when he tasted it, he was like, “Dude! This is like the best of everything! It’s like breakfast, it’s like Thanksgiving, I can taste cranberries, there are little pieces of chocolate in it…” and I was like no, those are the dates. ![]() There are dates in it, and they’re the best part. They have a smoothie called Captain Coconut, and it is so good. They also just opened a restaurant-bar between the mall and the Farmers’ Market. What do I love about it? I love that they validate parking! Any time I’m in that area and I want something to eat but I’m undecided, I go to the Farmers’ Market-I love being around people, and I really like the little Brazilian spot they have in there. I went for a year straight trying to catch Stevie, and the one night I didn’t go, he was there. Over time, when Brenna was still singing, Spike Lee was showing up, Justin Bieber, and then Stevie Wonder would show up and jump on stage with her. Everyone is well dressed, but they’re really into music. ![]() It was this little hotspot, free and in the lobby. ![]() We used to go when Brenna Whitaker would sing, but she’s gotten pretty popular now. They have a weekly jazz thing on Sunday nights. I also got to see Nemo on Ice while working there-that was entertaining! Sacramento and they ended up winning by one. I used to work for the Clippers-I sold tickets-so I was in the Staples Center all the time. ![]() My girlfriend Katrina Amato also teaches a beginner-level class there. There’s a live DJ, and he mixes all the music I grew up listening to-I’m dating myself, but he’ll throw in a track from SWV and then follow up with Puff Daddy when he was Puff Daddy B.I.G, and then Janet Jackson mixed with a dance beat. This is a studio in Silver Lake, and there’s a guy named Benjamin Allen who teaches a hip-hop class. Learning a new hobby was one of my New Year’s resolutions last year, so I picked up dancing.
