How can a guy REALLY enjoy Los Angeles WITH a girl imported from Europe?

Suffice it to say, I'll have a steady supply of girls I know from Europe (one at a time, each one staying for about 1-2 months), staying with me out in the 'burbs.

For obvious reasons, we will not be going to clubs, bars, or any other venues where local sausage prowl hungry and desperate.

But I do want to have a good time myself (most important), and show them a good time (secondarily important).

My bank roll is about 250k a year so I can afford to splurge but not excessively so.

I know there are road trips to Santa Barbara, the National Parks, etc. that can be done. But I'm just wondering if there are prime "date spots" and other hip scenes/venues that would just be downright cool to spend time at with a beautiful lady at your side.

Thanks.

If you want to go to any cool social places with less chance of hungry hunters, avoid going on Friday or Saturday, maybe even Thursday as there are always hunters on the prowl. She'll probably want to see Hollywood, so go DURING THE DAY on a weekday as at night she might see all the clubbers and want to go check it out. A nice date spot that I've used in the past were gardens. There's this one in Arcadia:

It's a huge garden with a cafe inside with tons of flowers from all over the world. Lots of private places too where you can get romantic/physical if you want.

Here's another garden that I only checked out once but seemed more fun but not as romantic (I wasn't able to go all the way inside so not sure)

If you like road trips, yes Santa Barbara is a beautiful city. If you have the energy, you can drive Highway 1 along the ocean all the way to San Francisco and about an hour north of there is Napa where you can go wine tasting. You'll have to stay at a hotel for a day but that would be good. Either on way up to or down from San Francisco, you can go to Monterey and eat oysters there.

If you want to stay in socal, maybe take her to San Diego to the beaches there and the zoo BUT STAY AWAY FROM GASLAMP DISTRICT AT NIGHT, as hunters will be out in full effect.

Hope this helps and have fun. If you ever have a spare one and need a trustworthy wing, lemme know

Definitely go to Griffith Observatory. You get a dramatic view of the LA Metro Area..amazing lights and its romantic...and free.

It's unclear to me as to whether you've already banged these chicks, or you're trying to play host and bang them on your own turf.

If you're talking about taking one girl out at a time, I don't see what the problem is. While LA is one of the thirstiest cities I've ever been in, most dudes aren't going to run up on a chic if she's clearly with a guy. If you're talking about a group of girls, all of them hot and you being the only guy, you better have a strong frame, because some dude out there is going to test your boundaries.

If the latter, I'd say take them out to hipster spots where the dudes are less aggressive. Some place in Echo Park like the Echoplex.

[Drazen]

Brunch at The Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. If its nice, go hang out at the pool.
I like walking around the Farmer's Market/Grove area. Good to show someone around as well there.
Venice Beach (Hotel Erwin Rooftop is great)
LACMA is great, go hit up the Tar Pits as well.
Concert at the Hollywood Bowl.
Laker game (tickets are cheaper now than they'll probably ever be). Sit in the 100 section or go to HYDE lounge (you might need to buy a bottle).
Getty Malibu (you can do the Getty Center too for the views, the collection is whatevz though)
The Edison Bar (Its a bar but its good when they have shows there). Perch is good too, just get dinner reservations.
I'd also recommend going down to Laguna Beach to hang, walk around, etc.

Every European Girl I've met asked me about the beaches, so take them to the Beaches. Venice is weird. Manhattan Beach/Hermosa Beach is nice to hang, hit some Volleyballs, etc. Malibu is scenic.

Oh yeah, Disneyland and Universal Studios as well.

[medicineman]

Thanks for the tips.

Some I have already banged. Others, not yet, but it wouldn't be difficult. And yes, they might invite a friend, a sister, or something like that when they are in town, which is why I want to avoid the thirstiest of the thirsty type venues.

Where are the hipster spots in Los Angeles?

And does Laguna Beach have that "typical" pretty & upscale LA feel? Santa Monica, to me, just looks like a mess. As does Venice Beach.

Laguna is probably the upscale you're looking for. Surf and Sand resort is really central and they also have the Montage for upscale options. Newport Beach/Corona del Mar is pretty close as well.

LA isn't upscale or pretty. For the most part, its a gritty city. Venice Beach is a mess, but its an interesting mess. Abbott Kinney in Venice is a great spot, I like hanging up and its a more upscale hipster spot. The beach is horrible but the Boardwalk would be interesting. Santa Monica sucks, I hate that place. Really pretentious but tons of tourists because it has an outdoor shopping mall area and a pier with a Ferris Wheel.

How old are these girls, I would think that young, naive early 20-something isolated European girls would look more for these spots. If they are the uppity model types, then you're looking at mainly dining and hanging at restaurants in Beverly Hills/Hollywood/etc and going to more intimate venues like Soho House. Just really depends on what you're looking for, but if they haven't been to LA before, I'd think they'd want to see cheesy tourist spots and hang out at nightclubs or bars.

Griffith Observatory around sunset is spectacular.

Getty Villa and El Matador State Beach in one day work well together.

Getty Center

During the summer, Hollywood Forever Cemetery screens movies and it's perfect for picnicking.

Will edit this thread when I think of more.

[Aaron-]

May I ask what kind of an arrangement this is? Are these girls you meet online and let them fly over for a month or two, and send them back afterwards?

[LAX]

This is a good list. We need more info though - are you taking them out at night? Eurotrash chicks love to see celebrities. Only places I will add

Food/Location:
- Malibu - paradise cove, mastro's ocean club is new, nobu in Malibu, geoffreys.
- Santa Monica: loews hotel, shangrila rooftop,
- Manhattan beach - shade hotel is a cool place to stay
- Newport beach is nice for a weekend.

Restaurants not on the beach - the following have good scenes
- dan tana
- pace
- stk, boa
- katusya

Dude - no guys are going to run up on your chick. Like speakeasy said - dudes are dying to get chicks here but if its clear the girl is your you are safe. It is actually a weird thing to even ask.

I think it depends if OP has banged them or not or is still working them. I once brought this girl to a gay club in WeHo (it was only 18+ club in area) and I kid you not, all these gay dudes started hitting on her. I had met her earlier in the day at Union Station as she was visiting out of town for a few days.

Another story. This actually happened in SF but still relevant as it's California. I was with my ex and her sister who was visiting from out of town. We were at Temple club and got there really late around 1AM from a day of sightseeing. So only thirsty dudes going beast mode at that time and guess who they went after. I still remember that time, it was like me, my two girls, and like 10 guys surrounding us all dancing all checking them out like sharks on their prey. You could argue that it should've been obvious that my girl was with me but damn homey, after a whole day of driving around, I don't want to be holding my girls hand or grinding with her just to make it known she's mine. Just wanted to go and dance (actually THEY WANTED TO) so I can totally understand OP's concern.

If during day, yeah, no worries but at night, fuck that. If these girls are cute and dress sexy or worse, they're model hot, guys will come out of the woodworks. Even in gay clubs, haha.

[Aaron-]

In all honesty, if you cannot keep other guys off even when you are with her, she is probably out of your league.

[samsamsam]

I think there are a lot of guys that wouldn't care if she was with a guy already. A bunch of guys here seem like they would hit on a hot chick if the opportunity was there. Even if she was with someone. Or that's the way some guys talk here. Especially, if she makes eye contact and gives some IOIs to another dude.

How about a datasheet on making 250k a year?

[fucksong]

Haha, I only go for girls outta my league

[coverdoc]

A childhood friend of my friend is a professional football player and has deemed what you are doing "imports." I asked about this and he says he flies girls out to his city for the S&F sessions. Thing is, he only buys one ways so if the chicks act wrong or thirsty he'll give them the boot.

Difference is though this guy is a 6ft+ professional athlete, but a lot can be learned from this. Set up what's expected before they come, if something is not to your liking address it immediately so when you do hit the streets with your arm candy, she'll be attached at the hip with no thought of interacting with other men.

Last but not least, you must really have the abundance mentality. If the girl acts up, even after you stated certain things, have no qualms about kicking her and her sister/friend out without a return flight and import the next one. I don't know any chick who will fuck up a free flight/stay in LA.

Agreed.
Some guys need to man up and grow some balls.

If you're afraid that she will choose other guys over you (even if she is with you) you indirectly deem yourself as a very low-value guy.
And since everybody (both men and women) are drawn to value, you can't even say she is a bitch if she goes with someone with more value. After all if you think for a moment (rationally) about it, you go with the hot chicks and not for the fatties.

In addition, if you have showed your true intentions you shouldn't even worry about it

[samsamsam]

Coverdoc, interesting point about the one ways. I have heard some countries want to see your return ticket when you enter their country. I wonder if the US requires that also.

[kerouac]

If you already have the girl, OC or SD might be a better place for you. I'm talking Corona Del Mar, Laguna Beach, Dana Point (basically South OC) or North County San Diego (Del Mar, Encinitas, Solana Beach, La Jolla). These areas are well off and not nearly as dirty as LA and more conducive to relaxed dates, which is what it seems you're after.

[medicineman]

Thanks for all the tips. LAX's tips on restaurants were especially appreciated. Is the Silver Lake scene any good?

I know the girls from my time living in Europe for many years.

I'm going to be in a big house with a pool/hot tub in San Marino so Orange County, San Diego are all out.

Basically, I'll (we'll) be stuck in the boring ass suburbs and driving everywhere. I hate traffic though.

I'm not THAT worried about losing girls I'm with.

Living in Eastern Europe actually made me allergic to environments with a lot of thirsty guys.

More women than men everywhere just relaxes me.

I really hate wall to wall guys, it just depresses the hell out of me to witness, unless it's for some business meeting or convention I care about.

[Drazen]

No, the Silverlake Scene is not good. Its a bunch of hipsters and a few crowded dark bars that aren't very upscale. I do like Los Feliz to hang out though, but its pretty small but pretty nice.

Since you're off the 210, I guess you can hit up the Americana in Glendale (nice outdoor shopping mall with upscale restaurants). Its not that hard getting to Orange Country, take the 210 to the 57. You're also close to the Huntington Gardens which is really nice with gardens, estates, etc. Most everything around you is Chinese though.

[This Is Trouble]

Venice Canals. Though to note, there's nowhere to sit down. Therefore, picnics or whatnot are out of the picture.

[kerouac]

If you're in San Marino, I'm sure there are a bunch of places around Pasadena? Maybe hit up some Chinese spots in the SGV?

In any case, not sure how this belongs on this forum.

[poutsara]

good luck.
