Celebrities in California are actually quite easy to spot if you know where to look. If you’re a resident of California you’re most likely not going to go crazy when you see a celebrity because you’ve seen them plenty of times before. If you’re not from California and just visiting, may I recommend going to these 4 places in LA.
The Grove is a shopping mall and entertainment complex located in some parts of the farmers market in LA, it has much to offer when it comes to shopping, eating, or even something to do. What makes this mall so special from the rest is the open air environment and stylish energy. One of the many reasons you can spot a celebrity at the grove is because of its amazing array of food and dining experiences, they have a long list of top notch and modern restaurants some of which being: The Cheesecake Factory, Maggiano’s Little Italy, Wood Ranch BBQ & Grill, and even La Pizza just to name a few. The fun doesn’t stop there though, after dining you have the amazing offer to shop at luxury retail stores such as: Nordstrom, October’s Very Own (OVO), Ray Ban, J Crew, and tons more.
