While you wont find any frozen drinks on site, spruced up and styled with cute little umbrella tops, you will find all the boozy staples of a hard night out, and a stiff hand at that.

It’s not news to you that dating in LA can be hard. Choosing the appropriate outfit, making sure your hair looks elegantly disheveled, and having a well-curated list of questions and emergency conversation starters in your back pocket are only a few of the things you need to get right.
