I am finally settled in and have been exploring Downtown. I have never spent much time in DTLA other than Staples Center and occassionally Dim Sum in Chinatown or Sushi in Little Toyko so it's been a great new experience.

What I am learning is resources are not like the South Bay...fewer gas stations, grocery stores, shopping, and when you eat out a lot it gets expensive so I think it's time to start cooking at home again.

The area I live in is quite safe but just walk 3 or 4 blocks East and well...it's a whole different world but I kind of like that everyone is not the same here. It is like many little countries in a 5 mile radius.

The new LA Live is quite exciting...never a dull moment.

Lucky Strike Lanes: A bowling lounge in a sleek atmosphere with billiards, DJ's and private party space.

Grammy Museum®: A museum that celebrates music and gives guests an insider perspective only the Grammy Museum® can deliver.

Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE: Home to the EMMYs, ESPYs, American Music Awards and American Idol Finals.

Nokia Plaza L.A. LIVE: Downtown's new gathering place with free events for the community.

Club Nokia: Los Angeles' exciting new music venue featuring emerging music acts, to headliners and comedy shows.

STAPLES Center: The world's most successful arena and home to Los Angeles' Kings, Lakers, Clippers, Sparks and Avengers.

Conga Room: Los Angeles' legendary Latin-infused night club, restaurant and live entertainment venue.

Regal Cinemas: Grand Opening - October 27, 2009 with the global launch of Michael Jackson's THIS IS IT


With lots of restaurants too


I have tried almost all of them now but not all.

We do have some great local places too.
