The Eclectic Evening
Pack A Picnic
For 45 fun tickets, Doughboys will pack you a baguette, four spreads, two drinks, and a choice of scrumptious sides (they also throw in utensils and a cute little tablecloth). Before your next stop, we also recommend grabbing copious amounts of vino (champs?), and perhaps some candles for mood lighting.
Doughboys Café & Bakery, 8136 West 3rd Street (Near South Kilkea Drive); 323-852-1020.
Catch An Outdoor Flick
Okay, so the cat's way out of the bag on Hollywood Forever, but the masses don't make watching a movie in a cemetery any less cool. Plus, it's also a good test of your date's patience level, since you'll most likely have to wait in line, ha! Maybe play a quick game of "F*ck, Chuck, Marry" or MASH, to bind your time? Get there promptly when the gates open at six, so you can snag prime film-viewing real estate when the show starts at 8:30.

Finish The Night With A Brewski
Head to K-Town after your cemetery snuggle, and check out this hidden bar. It's nestled at the end of a coffee shop's parking lot, so keep your eyes peeled. Inside you'll find a crazy-curated list of beers, and even a totally unexpected local blend: Try the Craftsman Triple White Sage, blended with sage from the hills of Pasadena.
Beer Belly, 532 South Western Avenue (Near South Oxford Avenue); 213-387-2337.
