Things to do in Los Angeles, California (CA): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

December 31, 2021 Almeta Stockton

Hollywood beckons to tourists who long for a brush with Tinseltown glamor. Tour movie studios, slip your hands into the famous prints at the TCL Chinese Theatre, or indulge in a celeb sighting at one of LA’s white-hot nightspots. Spot your favorite star while shopping at The Grove, or forget all about the famous eye candy as you take in the iconic artwork at The Getty Center. For a different type of star-gazing, peek through the telescopes at the Griffith Observatory.

There is a reason this bakery has been in business since 1903. Located in Little Tokyo, this unpretentious-appearing small bakery serves excellent Japanese pastries.The mochi balls are simply outstanding . If you're in the neighborhood, give it a try.

Arka Designs Fine Jewelry

Reviewed By LADerrick - Los Angeles, United States

Every guy knows that shopping for an engagement ring is THE MOST stressful thing in the world. My girl has been going back and forth on what she wants and doesn't want, and then she'll start liking the things that she didn't like in the first place. Kind of frustrating. A friend of mine who works at The Biltmore Hotel had suggested I pay Vito a visit. At first I thought, " Jewelry store at a hotel? umm... I don't know..." That feeling quickly subsided upon entering Arka Jewelry. What I loved most was that I never felt like I was being rushed into purchasing anything. Vito had the upmost patience with my girl and I as we sifted through all the different style rings and what each design meant. After a few visits, we were finally sold on one particular ring that we chose. It was perfect. Vito has been in the game for years and I felt very confident that I was not overpaying for the engagement ring. Thanks Vito!
