Oscar Sunday 24th of February, 2013 - Hollywood California

Sunset Blvd. looking towards Vine Street
This Sunday's weather is an example of the rare mild winter weather and brilliant sunshine that Hollywood is so naturally renowned for. Even Oscar Sunday saw a light amount of automobile traffic, along Vine Street, Sunset and Hollywood Boulevards.

Magnolia - the restaurant next door

This is the eastern-most restaurant in the block east of Vine Street along Sunset Blvd. There are 3 restaurants in a row here and all are within walking distance of the Arclight Cinema (the former Hollywood Pacific Dome Theater). Lots of night-life around here and because it's close to Sunset & Vine, not much in the way of "street people". Bowery & Magnolia, owned by different people, none the less are priced very similarly. Expect to shell out about $30 for a nite-on-the-town. That's dinner and a drink. As for celebrity spotting, that's pretty much hit or miss and if that's your aim, head up Vine Street to nearer Hollywood Blvd., which is less than 1/2 a mile away. Katsuya and Kabuki may be better Hollywood Hangouts. Also, Ivan Kane's Cafe __was (a visual pun - the sign read in broken neon lights - Ivan Kanes's Cafe Always Open) along Vine north of Sunset.
