First we had a DELICIOUS dinner at Mas Malo downtown. It is the sister restaurant of one of my fave mexican restaurants in Silverlake.
Mas Malo is on 7th and Grand. Its absolutely beautiful, in a grand sweeping ballroom with epic ceilings. We had crunchy and chewy chips and a salsa flight for starters, and I had a spicy cucumber margarita... omg in heaven.
We saw this, and although this would normally be up my alley, we stayed away.
This was super fun and we had a great time....but now it was time to move on to the desserts! We crossed the road to Bottega Louie.
The French Macaroons are seriously amazing. We tried salted caramel, pistachio, espresso, earl grey, rose, and vanilla. The flavors were incredible. Mind you, at $1.75 per macaroon, they aren't cheap. In my mind, they were totally worth it. Also, they guy that helped us was smokin' hot. Melissa said he was def gay, ah well. You win some, you lose some.
Last but not least, we went and saw this movie at LA Live.
LA Live is the new movie theatre/restaurant/concert venue downtown. Its all bright and shiny and new. It felt weird seeing a movie there since most of the theaters in Los Angeles are historical and beautiful. The movie itself was cute and popcorn worthy, but the crowd sucked! Totally ghetto! Everyone was talking, on their cell phones, just being overly rude. I thought it was just a fluke, but today at lunch, another friend of mine had the same experience there. I think from now on I will be sticking to my side of town for movies, but I am glad we checked it out.
Over all it was a super fun night. I love Melissa and Kevin, and I love downtown LA.
