Whomever is coming to Xbiz, I hope you have a great trip to "Fantastic LA" next week.
If you need any advice on our great city such as restaurants, clubs or sporting event venues, just ask me. Being an LA native, I know a few spots you won’t find in the guides.
Here just a few of my favorites off the top of my head (hit me up for more):
Restaurant:
Gardens of Taxco – This place opened 39 years ago and has unbelievable Mexican food.
No menus , the waiter recites the entire menu. Great atmosphere, best margaritas in LA
14.95 gets you a 3 course meal before 7pm if you print this coupon

1113 North Harper Avenue
West Hollywood, CA 90046
(323) 654-1746
Dive Bars:
There are a lot of these old school “dive bars” in Hollywood. You won’t find any red carpet or valet here, but you will have a “unique” experience at these historic watering holes:
The Frolic Room – Quench your thirst with cheap drinks while rubbing shoulder with the diverse clientele. You will see everything from young starlets to washed up character actors.
It’s been there since the 1940’s. You seen this bar in many movies, one that comes to mind is "LA Confidential" (when Kevin Spacey leaves the $50 drink tip). Elizabeth Short / Black Dahlia hung out here(and the exterior was used in the recent Black Dahlia movie.
Neighborhood: Hollywood
6245 Hollywood Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90028
(323) 462-5890
The Power House - If you look up the word "dive" in the Webster's dictionary - you'll see a picture of the Power House… for real.
I don’t know the history of this place, but it’s a lot like the frolic, but a bit more “rough”
Neighborhood: Hollywood
1714 N Highland Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90028
(323) 463-9438
On a business note…
Many webmasters have figured out that webcam sites are the best way to make money in this climate.
Not only because the amount you can earn on each customer is only limited by their bank account, but because of all the free/stolen content out there.
Bottom line surfers cant steal "live", they have to pay for it, and they do pay :-)
In this slumping economy I'm happy to say webcams are stronger than ever. I am setting up meetings to show you how you can turn your quality traffic in to cash.

Any other LA Peeps have any suggestions?
