1. Moonshadows, Malibu Farm Café, or The Beach Café at Paradise Cove, all located in Malibu, offer fun brunch options with an oceanside view. The proximity to the beach is convenient for an after-lunch stroll.

2. Who doesn’t love a personalized yummy treat? Visit Duff’s Cakemix in West Hollywood for a few fun-filled hours of designing and decorating your own cake. Duff’s offers an endless variety of possibilities. Some of the flavors include classic red-velvet, lemon poppy-seed, confetti, and beyond. Sound fun? Grab an apron and get to work.

3. The LACMA Museum, located on Wilshire Boulevard, hosts unbelievable exhibits. From Dianne Von Furstenberg: Journey of A Dress to James Turrell: A Retrospective, shows are highly entertaining and might even get you inspired to create your own in-home exhibit.

In addition to the fantastic opportunity of taking an “Instagram-worthy” picture, each destination will leave you satisfied after a beautiful day out in Los Angeles.
