2. L.A. Derby Dolls
Leave Staples Center to the celebrities and paparazzi. To really cheer on some hometown heroes, consider an outing to the Doll Factory, the L.A. Derby Dolls' banked track headquarters in downtown. Treat it like a Texas A&M football game and share a kiss every time the Dolls score. 1910 W. Temple Ave., Echo Park. (310) 285-3766. More information: derbydolls.com/la.

1. Maxwell DeMille's Cicada Club
For a date that's really the bee's knees, spend the night on the dance floor at the Cicada's old-fashioned supper club in downtown. And if the date doesn't go well, you're at the perfect place to find a new dance partner. 617 S. Olive St., dwntwn. (213) 488-9488. More information: cicadaclub.com.

My favorite first date spot is the Venice Ocean Front Walk or a picnic on the beach.

Wife and I had our first date at Rose Bowl antique and flea market - must have worked, since we've been together now for 18+ years

White Harte Pub rocks...a fun pub, it's like going to a good friends home...

Hey White Harte Pub (British) there's Monday Night Dinner & Movie nights, and for same price as going to the theater you can have dinner, movie, dinner and drinks! So why spend a fortune at the movie theater unless there is a must see new film, you're better off going to a quaint and cozy pub for drinks during your movie in a beer garden....

I went on my first date with my fiance to the Cicada Club. It's a fabulous place to start falling in love with someone.
