"Best $2k I Ever Spent" Wolfgang Gartner Spins the Grand Opening of Lure Hollywood

I need blue mountains to tell me when my beer is cold?), clubs will forever be trying to outdo one another with expensive laser displays and complicated bottle service procedure. That's why we're overjoyed that, aside from looking cool as all hell, Lure Hollywood (in the old Cabana Club space) did the one thing that really matters and snagged Grammy nominee Wolfgang Gartner to spin the hell out of their grand opening.

Did you know we were a drama major in college? You didn't? Maybe that's because we're ashamed of it. Just now, though, we were flipping through pics of our turn as Silent Fairy Number 6 in"Midsummer Night's Dream," and we felt this hankering for some Shakespeare that only party photos could satisfy . . .

And even the strangest pickup lines seem suave when delivered with intonations out of Merry Olde Englande. More»

Last week, a private tea party was hosted at H.Wood's Tea Room, giving guests a different kind of experience than what they're used to at the smallish, typically hipster night spot. With the lights on in the usually very dimly lit venue, the space felt completely different and More»
Paul Sevigny tells the Times he doesn't understand the fuss about The Beatrice Inn's legacy. He's serenely glad about the opening of The Kenmare, but doesn't like those pesky taxis queuing up outside.
