Descanso Gardens
‘ This past weekend I dragged my fiance and my parents out to stalk Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge – another location that I discovered thanks to my new favorite stalking book. The 160-acre botanical garden has been featured in countless movies and television shows over the years and is also a popular wedding venue.…

A Weeklong Visit to L.A. with Friends!
‘ I am heading to L.A. today to spend the next week with my friends Kim and Katie who are visiting from Kentucky (that’s Kim above during a visit last November). We have a ton of fun stalking activities planned (you can follow along on Instagram) that will not leave any time for blogging, so…

A Breather
‘ This past week was a particularly trying one for me, during which both of my parents wound up in the hospital – my dad expectedly for a scheduled surgery and my mom completely unexpectedly (and rather scarily, I might add) when she fainted in the pre-operating room while my dad was being prepped. They…

Saddle Peak Lodge from “Bones”
‘ There is no shortage of historic restaurants in Los Angeles that have appeared onscreen. Despite their abundance, I thought I was well-versed on pretty much all of them. One I went completely unaware of for years, though, was Saddle Peak Lodge in Calabasas. I only learned of the 100-plus-year-old eatery in March 2013 while…

Sorry For the Delay . . .
‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past week. We had friends in town visiting and I was a little remiss in my blogging duties. I did do a ton of stalking while they were here, though (we even ran into Ken Todd while stalking TomTom, as you can see above!), so a bunch…

McSorley’s Old Ale House from “Rounders”
‘ It has been said that 60% of restaurants close within a year of opening and that 80% don’t make it past year five. Many in New York, though, have real staying power. Take McSorley’s Old Ale House, for example. The East Village watering hole/eatery has been around for more than 16 decades! Yep, 16…

Special Café from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Video
‘ [UPDATE – The Special Café site still stands! You can read all about it here. Even though this post contains erroneous information, I am leaving it up as it chronicles an important part of the long, arduous journey my fellow stalkers and I embarked upon to track the locale down.] Since we’re on the…

Howard Stern’s Building
‘ Why oh why did when I am already back on the West Coast?? Apparently Howard Stern is very upset that Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have moved onto the same block where he resides. While I was in New York this past week, I was obsessively keeping my eyes peeled at every children’”‘”‘s playground…

Hotel Barclay from “Little Fires Everywhere”
‘ Not only do The Morning Show and Little Fires Everywhere share a leading lady, Reese Witherspoon, but the two new series also seem to be sharing locations! Both made use of The Wolves, an insanely beautiful downtown Los Angeles bar that I blogged about in December, as well as Hotel Barclay, a historic and…

The Griffin from “NCIS”
‘ Today’s location comes with a caveat. Last Saturday evening while in L.A. for a brief visit, I headed to The Griffin, an Atwater Village bar I had been dying to stalk ever since seeing it in an episode of NCIS almost three years ago. The place did not disappoint and I started writing this…
