SPA & FLASK SERVICE
If he's been a little tense lately, a beer and an 80-minute deep-tissue massage ought to help him relax. If
not, the included flask and take-home bottle of tequila should probably do the trick.
THE ULTIMATE COMME ÇA COCKTAIL
On the big day, you might even be okay with throwing down $23 on a cocktail. The fine barmen at Comme
Ça will be slinging Rockefellers in dad's honor—a jigger of 23-year Rittenhouse rye, a
pony of sweet vermouth, a dash of bitters and a brandy-soaked cherry. Make it two.
QUALITY PATIO TIME
Or you could always take him to the beach…in Culver City. The upstairs patio at Rush Street is being
filled with sand for a weekend of surf-and-turf specials, margaritas and beer pong. You learned from the
best.
BBQ, BEVERLY HILLS-STYLE
In Beverly Hills, even the barbecues are coursed out—this epic four-course affair, on one of the
city's most striking rooftops, includes everything from Peking Duck Spring Rolls to grilled rib eye
to a formidable dessert platter. For an extra $15, they'll throw in a whole grilled lobster.
CIGARS, CHAMPAGNE AND COGNAC
But to truly go all out, Pasadena's grandest hideaway will unveil an indoor-outdoor labyrinth of waffles,
Chopin vodka Bloody Marys, cigars, Krug champagne, sausages, Hennessy XO cognac, sushi and plasma screens
showing golf. It's like they see right into his soul.
