"From staring at a six-foot sculpture of a thumb to buying a $500 candle that smells like a musky mammal, there’s a lot you could do in the Arts District. What you couldn't do, however, was find a good tapas spot for a fun but relatively low-volume date night. Enter Flor Y Solera, a Spanish restaurant from The Factory Kitchen people where you can get a potato omelet and a glass of sherry with someone who thinks your periwinkle loafers are cute. This restaurant is on the upscale side (read: not cheap), but you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how good the food is at this former factory near the LA River.
