"The Brentwood Country Mart is one of those places that could only exist in L.A. and its perennially sunny weather. Grab a bitE at its outdoor food court (my favorite stall is Reddi Chik) and then peruse the shops: there are outposts of famous California Brands like Doen and Jenni Kayne, as well as Gwyneth Paltrow’s original Goop Store. Then, stop by the Farm Shop for some locally sourced, California-inspired fare and products… as well as a quality selection of natural wines. —Elise Taylor"
