L.A. Area’s Movie Glow-Up Continues as Look Cinemas Takes Over Pasadena’s iPic Theater

The Los Angeles area’s movie theater renaissance is in full swing as Look Cinemas is set to take over the former iPic location at One Colorado in Old Pasadena. The dine-in theaters will reopen in December — just in time for “Dune: Part Three” and “Avengers: Doomsday” — with luxury reclining pod seating, immersive picture and sound and chef-inspired food and craft beverages delivered directly to guests’ seats. Movie Theater Chain iPic Files for Bankruptcy The iPic multiplex closed in June amid the company’s bankruptcy proceedings. The six-screen location has been in operation since 1991, first as AMC, then Laemmle and later as Gold Class luxury cinemas. “Old Pasadena has had a movie theater at One Colorado for many years, and we weren’t willing to let that story end,” said Brian Schultz, CEO of Look Dine-In Cinemas. “A local cinema is where a community comes together to laugh, cry, be inspired and share experiences. We can’t wait to welcome Pasadena back to the movies and invite everyone to make this Look cinema their favorite spot.” “One Colorado has long been a premier destination in the heart of Old Pasadena, and the cinema has been part of that experience,” said Mark

The Hottest New Tables in Hollywood During AFM

Baldi 9850 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills The Hotel Lobbies Where Hollywood Takes Meetings During AFM At the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, chef Edo Baldi gives the steakhouse an Italian accent, cooking beef and wagyu over an olive wood-fired grill. Don’t let the steaks distract from sweet corn tortellini with mascarpone and truffle butter, or the pancake soufflé for two. Terracotta tones and olive trees warm the restaurant. For casual meet-ups, Bar Baldi pairs thin-crust pizza with beverage director Jim Kearns’ limoncello-laced spritz. Birdie G’s 2025 Avenue of the Stars, Los Angeles Moving from Santa Monica into the former Lumière space, chef Jeremy Fox’s Birdie G’s brings its family-inspired cooking directly to Century City. Matzo ball soup, the Pickle Chick cutlet and rose petal pie join koji-aged steaks, handmade pastas and California vegetables. EDG’s design draws on midcentury supper clubs, with banquettes and expanded patio seating. The planned breakfast-through-dinner format covers the working day; martinis and Manhattans take care of happy hour and beyond. Bad Roman 267 N. Canon Drive, Suite A7, Beverly Hills The former Palm steakhouse has a new cast of characters: a boar sculpture, greyhound statues and snake door handles. Quality Branded’s Bad Roman fills green velvet banquettes

Lulu and Georgia Just Opened Its First Showroom (And I Have Their Designers’ Exclusive Shopping Picks!)

We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. I’ve been a fan of Lulu and Georgia for as long as the Los Angeles-based brand has been on my radar — probably for at least the last decade. The company is an authority on the contemporary California cool aesthetic for sure. But in recent years, Lulu and Georgia’s offerings have branched out to include more traditional-leaning pieces alongside the laidback-meets-modern fare the design world has come to expect from them. And can we talk about designer collaborations? Lulu and Georgia is at the top of their game there, partnering with British talents like celeb designer Jake Arnold and Ginny Macdonald alongside artsy American trendsetters like Sarah Sherman Samuel, Eny Lee Parker, and, one of my personal favorites, Heidi Caillier.
