The List

Hump this

Eat: Charcoal
6372 Sunset Blvd, Hollywood; 323.465.8530

The man behind the Lodge and Memphis wants to fat you afresh at Charcoal. Spitting distance from the Arclight, its stacked hamburgers and meat-laden salads make it a great post-movie date option, even if 90mins of Nic Cage has crippled you with post melodramatic stress syndrome.

Drink: The Library Bar
630 W 6th St, Downtown; 213.614.0053

The bookish hangout has wrangled ex-Father's Office manager Christina Perozzi as their new beer sommelier, bringing with her rare brews like the smokey/sweet Maredsous and the Trappiste Rochefort -- whose 11.3% abv'll stupefy you into thinking you like reading.

Watch: Last Remaining Seats

Ditch the multiplex for one of LA's classic, old-school theaters during this LA Conservancy screening series. Tickets are still available for everything from Yankee Doodle Dandy to Scarface -- your date can say hello to your little friend after she's found him poking up through the popcorn.

Buy: Combat Sushi Board Shorts

These durable, cargo-pocketed shorts scream "I love to eat" almost as loudly as the 46"-waist they'll encircle. Of course, swimming with pictures of raw fish puts you at risk of a deadly eat-my-shorts shark attack.

Hump this

This google mash-up shows you available housing in your area -- apartments for rent, sublets, even places to buy. Many of the pop-ups contain photos and descriptions -- places that don't are likely to be infested with Kato Kailin.
