Eat: Saam

Saam

A 40-seat semi-private room hidden in the back of The Bazaar, Saam's pimped like a rich dude's study with leather upholstery, Murano light fixtures, and bookshelved walls. The menu's a constantly changing prix-fixe, with 20+ bite-sized courses, many unavailable at The Bazaar, including salmon roe/creme fraiche "Bagels & Lox" cones, truffle/Kobe/foie gras tournedos rossini, and "Olive Oil Bon Bons" -- olive oil encased in a gelatinous sphere w/ sugar & balsamic, basically a poppable shot of salad dressing, less likely to scare away your date then slamming a takeout pack of Hidden Valley.

At the SLS: 465 S La Cienega, Beverly Hills; 310.246.5555 |

Celebrate: Bacaro One-Year Anniversary Party

Bacaro One-Year Anniversary Party

To celebrate their first birthday, the Downtown wine bar's asking just $15 for all-you-can-eat app-sized paninis and an all-night wine/beer open bar. Bevy brands are still TBA, but chances are, they won't intersect with your $15 all-you-can-drink Friday conundrum of Franzia vs Franzia.

Their website is at BacaroLA.com

Go: Levi's Powersliding Championship

Levi's Powersliding Championship

To make Tax Day blow slightly less, enjoy a slew of Free at the Santa Monica pier, including Korean tacos from Kogi, screen-printed tees from Long Beach customizers Hit & Run, party-happy electro-laced indie rock from Brooklyn's Matt & Kim, gift packs from Levi's, and a powersliding competition featuring top-ranked artisans of the extreme sport (basically skateboard-style grinding on body parts instead of wheels) with "celebrity judges" Johnny Moseley, Wee Man, and Girls Next Door's Kendra Wilkinson...so make that "judges".

Check out some powersliding insanity on YouTube

Today, 3-5 at the Santa Monica Pier |
