Los Angeles

[Greg]

I'm posting this pretty early as I will be in LA (my home town!) from April 13th through the 17th.

What I want to know are where the cool cigar lounges are and if anyone would like to meet up for some smokes and drinks.

LA is a massive town dude. Give me a little more information. Lots of great places.

'LA is a massive town dude.'

That it is!

I'll most likely be staying near the Convention Center downtown (i have to present some research data at a cancer meeting that will be held at the CC), though I haven't booked a room yet. I'm looking at the Omni and The New Otani hotels.

Thanks Chuck, I can give more specifics later...

Your really going to be in the heart of LA. Lots within 10 miles. The best if you can get in is the Grand Havana Room. Its private but if your in with any major B&M, they can usually get you in. Otherwise:

Buena Vista Cigar Club
9715 Santa Monica Blvd (Cross Street: Roxbury Drive)
Beverly Hills, CA 90210-4201
3102738100

Small socialable cigar lounge with booze. $5.00 if you smoke your own.

Cuban Seed Cigar CO
8851 1/2 W Sunset Blvd
West Hollywood, CA 90069-2107
3108540353
Very nice lounge and selection

Nazareth's Fine Cigars
350 N Canon Dr Ste 22
Beverly Hills, CA 90210-4792
3102715863

Great cigar store.

Restaurants
The Bel Air up on Stone Canyon allows cigars on their patios. This is the old hang out of the stars. Thats the only one close. Arnie had a place in Santa Monica called Shatzi's but I haven't been there in years.

My itinerary is set.

I'll be staying at the Wishire Plaza Hotel on 3515 Wilshire Blvd from 4/13-18th.

Chuck, it's a must that you make it out at least one of the nights that I'll be in town.

[jwintosh]

[Greg]

Well, I arrive in L.A. at 11 AM. From there, check in at hotel and then I have the whole day free. Also, have the entire day Saturday free.

Saturday night I'm having dinner with the boss but I am free the rest of the evenings through the 17th.

We'll have to coordinate something.

Sound like a Semi-Plan!!
