LA's Finest Sporting Events

     LA is home to some of the best sports teams in the United States and in the world.  LA is home to the Los Angles Lakers, Clippers, Kings, Galaxy, Dodgers, Angels, and more.  The only team LA lacks is a football team.  All of these teams are fun to watch in person.
     The Lakers are always a fun team to watch.  The games are a great time and celebrity sightings are regular.  Although they are not looking like championship contenders this year the games are always fun to be apart of.  The Clippers organization has completed a huge turn around in comparison to past years.  The last three years have been great for the Clippers and they are often said to be the best basketball team in LA and even on the West Coast.  With all the talented players the Clippers have acquired the past couples years they are a very fun team to watch in person.  They are not called "Lob City" for no reason.
     I have not been a fan of Hockey for long but the LA Kings and hockey in general is one of the best sports to watch in person.  Kings' games are very exciting and with their success in recent years the games are very fun to watch.  I have been to so many Galaxy games and if you love soccer you should go to their games.  Galaxy have won the MLS Cup the past two years and the team have some of the MLS's best players.  I am not the biggest fan of baseball but the Dodgers had an amazing year this year so if you like baseball go watch them play!  Thanks for reading about another day in paradise!

Let's Party!

     Everybody enjoys getting dressed up and going out and having a good time with friends.  This week I will be featuring a few great places to have fun with friends on the weekends or whenever you choose to enjoy yourself.

     Hermosa Beach has many places to have a good time.  Hermosa has casual sports bars and crowded clubs so there are several places to choose depending on what kind of vibe you are looking for.  North End Bar is a great bar to watch a sporting event or hang with friends.  If you are lucky you may even spot some of the LA Kings players after their games, they go to North End often.  That should speak for the quality of the place for itself.  Another fun sports bar is called Underground Pub & Grill.  This is right by Pier Ave where all the major and popular bars/clubs are so if this place isn't your type then stroll down the street and choose from one of the many other spots.  

     I only touched on some places in Hermosa but there are great places all over LA.  Be sure to check out this page!  Thanks for reading about another day in paradise!

Acai?

     Something that is new to my knowledge is how popular acai bowls are these days.  I heard about them a while ago and now there lots of places that specialize in acai bowls all over LA.  Acai is a berry that is a grape-like fruit harvested from acai palm trees, which are native to the rainforests of South America.  There are many health benefits that nutritionists are advocating for regular consumption of this fruit.
     If you are in LA there are probably several places close by that you can check out and try this fairly new phenomenon.  I visited a place in Manhattan Beach today called Nekter.  It was my second time trying these bowls and it was delicious.  I highly recommend trying this place and acai in general.  Right down the street there is a place called Paradise Bowls.  I have yet to try this place but I have heard a lot of good things from friends.  There are also some good places in West LA like Amazebowls, which is supposed to really good as well.  If you are interested in trying this delicious trend then hop on the internet and find a place near you!  Thanks for reading about anther day in paradise!
