Parc, Los Angeles

As if nestled in a cozy botanical garden, complete with a 14-foot tree surrounded by globular pendants of light, Parc attracts exotic A-list fauna to their bar and restaurant.  Known for its excellent food and even better wine list, the spot has also gained notoriety for its gorgeous (and friendly) wait staff.  If you decide to go early for food, small tasting plates stand in for main courses that are too easy to work off once the DJ starts spinning later in the evening around 10.  The specialty Joie de Vive cocktail made with organic açai liquor will have you climbing their 65-year-old tree in no time.
