Varnish Bar
4. Midnight in Paris:
Drink at: The Varnish

viciousdogs (1).jpg
LA Weekly
Vicious Dogs
3. Moneyball:
Eat at: Vicious Dogs
The Inspiration: What would America's favorite pastime be without a decent dog? How can you not get romantic about baseball? How can you not get romantic about hot dogs? (Yeah, yeah. Brad Pitt, too. Or Philip Seymour Hoffman, really.) 5231 Lankershim Blvd., North Hollywood; (818) 985-3647.


Tree of Life (1).jpg

Tree of Life
