The Weekender
The Weekend Starts Here

THURSDAY THROWBACK

Cheap Gin at the Edison

Come for the 35-cent 1910 martini, stay for the unexpected view. During routine upkeep last weekend, the owners discovered a mysterious underground tunnel behind a wall—and promptly installed a window so you can see it for yourself.

411:: 411: Thursdays, 5-7pm, The Edison, 108 W. Second St #101 (at Main), Downtown, 213-613-0000

SATURDAY STEALS

Blueprint Sale

At this annual parking-lot sale, you'll find modern furniture and other home wares from Calligaris, Robert Abbey and John Charles marked up to 70% off.

411:: 411: Nov 10-11, Blueprint, 8366 Beverly Blvd (at Kings Rd), West Hollywood, 323-653-2439

SATURDAY CROSSBONES

Dussault Apparel Motel

If you suddenly discovered you were the illegitimate son of Rob Zombie or Gene Simmons, you could update your wardrobe accordingly in the VIP room (where liquor flows freely) of this new boutique. Skulls feature prominently, even on the leather bags.

411:: 411: Opens Nov 10, 8010 Melrose Ave (between Fairfax and Crescent Heights), West Hollywood, 323-951-9215

SUNDAY SCORE

Sports Bar Menu at Citizen Smith

Hollywood's ever-evolving urban bistro now has a weekend sports-bar menu (Cajun BBQ Shrimp, Waffles a la Mode) for your game-watching needs, with two-for-one beers and free shots when your team scores. Hint: say you're a Pats fan.

TUESDAY MASHUP

Penthouse Party at Elevate Lounge

Your favorite Downtown 21st-floor lounge (such a competitive category) brings you the rare opportunity to watch nostalgic 90's fans (Moby is DJ'ing) mix with the super-hipsters (nightlife king Franki Chan is hosting).
