Cereal City Guide: Los Angeles

Such a low effort "travel guide" that is really just a book of advertisements for several boutique businesses - some of which didn't survive the pandemic. (e.g., the Owl Bureau no longer exists.)If you are looking for a real sightseeing guide, this isn't it. Sorry, but everyone knows about Griffith Observatory and the Getty. Otherwise, it's just shopping and interviews with meaningless individuals like Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen.All of the books in this series are like this. Would avoid Cereal media.

The first tip off was that almost all the Places to visit" were what must have been advertisers, starting with 5 hotels, 7 eateries, and 12 shops of various kinds, then 5 points of interest (2 houses, The Getty, Huntington Gardens, and the Griffith Observatory,Then they list "Additional Recommendations, which follows the same pattern, 3 hotels, 5 eateries, 6 stores, and ending with LACMA, The Broad, and a gallery.Really? Why was paper wasted on this?I loved that the furthest south listed on their "Neighborhood Map" was Ladera Heights, Except for that, anything south of the 10 freeway doesn't exist. That's very funny...and telling.Here's their itinerary of what must be a perfect day in L.A :Konbi for a coffee & pastry, Shopping at a furniture/clothing store, Hollyhock house,Coffee, then travel for 30 minutes for...pizza. Furniture shopping, clothing shopping,Stahl House, Then travel 40-ish minutes to Venice for pasta.My advice... If you want pretty pictures look at their website or @walkinglosangeles.Unless you like visiting hotels, there are many other sources and books with better info.

Awesome as all Cereal products
