"Yes, we're rolling our eyes at the name and technicolor beverages. But La La Land Kind Café in Santa Monica is the chic, minimalist escape you need whenever your pass at NeueHouse expires. There's a pleasing, all-white aesthetic (think high ceilings and minimalist décor) that is so sparse you're coaxed into a sort of zen-like trance. Plus, there are plenty of places to sit: at the bar, on the sprawling wooden patio, or in your car while pretending to be at home for a Zoom call. " - nikko duren, brant cox, sylvio martins
