Food Scene

Casa Vega is an old Valley stand-by. It's always crowded for happy hour, and it's a great place to grab an "old LA" style drink as it's one of the few restaurants that has NO windows to speak of.

Du-Par's is one of the last true L.A. diners with a history dating back over 70 years. The Studio City location is a short drive from the house, and worth it. Their pancakes are world-class.

Barone's is decent Italian and it's within walking distance of the house. They're famous for their Neapolitan-style rectangular pizza. Yum.

It's Starbucks...what else is there to say? The coffee's consistently decent, though far from extraordinary. If you have to have your latte, this is a good place to go.

Shopping

Fashion Square mall is the closest shopping center. Anchored by a Macy's and Bloomingdale's, it's a small-to-medium sized mall. It's a decent place to find gifts and clothing.

Drinks & Nightlife

With live music many nights of the week, Ireland's 32 is a fun neighborhood hot-spot. It's dive-y, but it's great on nights when the bands play. Big plus-- it's walking distance from the house.

Arts & Culture

This is, by far, the best movie theater in the valley. Reserved seating, plush chairs, wider aisles (in some theaters), and top-notch projection & sound make the experience a pleasure.

Sightseeing

The Universal Studios theme park is the closest one to the house, and it's an easy drive to get there. Situated next to Hollywood, it's worth a visit if you want great views and a sunburn.
