The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum placed first in the list of Presidential Libraries and homes listed and ranked second behind Mt. Rushmore as the best presidential attraction in the country. “The American Presidency comes alive at the Reagan Library,” said John Heubusch, executive director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation. “Guests to the Library walk on-board an actual Air Force One aircraft that flew seven U.S. presidents, touch an authentic piece of the Berlin Wall, and pay their respects at President Reagan’s Grave Site. Readers could vote between eighteen different presidential attractions. Mount Rushmore was the only presidential attraction to receive more votes than the Reagan Library. Ronald Reagan’s path to the White House. Using Green Screen technology, visitors call a Cubs game, introduce a GE Theater episode, and even act in a movie with Ronald Reagan. Visitors also travel the world on diplomatic missions on board Air Force One and explore the White House Oval Office and East Wing. Visitors may also enjoy the Library’s outdoor grounds, including replicas of the White House Rose Garden West Lawn and dine in one of two restaurants.

RESTAURANT REVIEW

ATTICUS CREAMERY & PIES MEDIA

Dessert | $$ 10893 West Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles | (310) 474-7464 www.atticusisawesome.com

he first thing that caught my eye as I walked into Atticus Creamery on a balmy Los Angeles winter day was their chalkboard sign outside, proclaiming, “Homemade Ice-Cream!” – followed by the words “Honeycomb” and “Nutella Ferrero Rocher”. They might as well have spoken to my inner child foodie soul. How can you avoid this place with those proclamations? Recently featured on Huffpost Taste, LA Weekly, and Zagat (to name a few): Atticus is quickly becoming one of the best dessert shops in Los Angeles. Atticus is known for it’s mini-pies, ice cream, and generous free samples. All items are painstakingly made from scratch the morning of. Located right across the street from the Landmark Theatres on West Pico Boulevard, tucked away with its unassuming storefront, Atticus nevertheless tempts visitors in with an array of colorful fruittopped miniature pies and ice cream, front and center. Offering truly unique flavors and desserts, with names such as Lemon Lavender pie, the aforementioned Nutella Ice Cream, Oreo cheesecake miniature pie, and Salted Caramel Popcorn pie, it is no wonder that Atticus has become a hit among its sweet-toothed followers. You would be hard-pressed to find such memorable and interesting desserts elsewhere in Southern California, all of which are authentic homemade creations by its founders, Josh and Iris. The quaint kitchen-like setting of Atticus’ storefront belies the quality of the desserts here. Make no mistake – the ice cream and miniature pies are all made from scratch every morning, and what visitors

get to enjoy is a taste of pure sweet heaven. No matter what your sweet tooth aches for, whether it is a waffle cone of their customerfavorite HoneyComb ice cream, or a serving of the more adventurous Strawberry Pistachio miniature pie topped with some strawberry, visitors leave Attiticus with a smile on their face as they sample part of the unique dessert experience that define Los Angeles cuisine. For example, take their Nutella ice cream flavor, which I had the pleasure of enjoying many cups of. Creamy, sweet, and yet very much distinctly carrying that delicious Nutella taste, each scoop felt like experiencing the classic truffle, yet in cool ice cream form. In the meantime, my wife partook of their Oreo Cheesecake Pie, which she had promised to share with me. Apparently, Atticus must have made quite the pie, as I never got a chance to sample it myself. At the end of the visit, I found myself wishing I could take home almost all of the flavors of ice cream and pies that I saw on their chalkboard; in the end, I had to settle for a Salted Caramel Popcorn pie to console myself on the ride home. I suspect I am not the only sweets-loving Angelino who has felt the same way walking out of Atticus. If you find yourself in the Los Angeles area and you have a sweet tooth, you owe it to yourself to pay a visit to Atticus Creamery. While I visited their original location on West Pico Boulevard, they also recently opened a second location on West 3rd St, also in Los Angeles. Hope to see you there!

RESTAURANT REVIEW LUNA ROSSA

Italian | $$ 2449 Park Ave, Tustin | (714) 259-0861 www.lunarossaristorante.com/

n the age of new and eccentric cuisines, it’s near impossible to find food that is not deemed to be “new age”. Southern California is known as a “foodie-central” and is home to many eateries showcasing ambitious new types of foods with unorthodox flavors. It was a very refreshing change to have finally found a restaurant that did not cater to this modern hype. Good food is good food and it’s finally time to get back to basics. Luna Rossa provides just this. For years, Luna Rossa has prided itself in offering well-produced products that please the traditional Italian cuisine history. Everything coming out of the Luna Rossa kitchen is made fresh and from scratch. There are no artificial flavors or store-bought items that substitute the products that are painstakingly made either the night before or in the early morning of. There are no secret ingredient or secret recipes here for the simple reason that Luna Rossa understands that their customers like: simple Italian cuisine. Luna Rossa has many great items in its menu, but the top two items that I heavily recommend are the tortellini and gnocchi. These two very old-fashioned cuisines are traditionally associated with Italian food as a whole; unfortunately, there is now a modern [read: lazy] way that these are generated that does not come close to the traditional flavors that they are meant to have. The tortellini is one of Luna Rossa’s more meticulously created cuisines. Due to convenience, most wraps served by Italian restaurants nowadays are made from conventional mix flour, a common item in everyone’s kitchen. Unsurprisingly, Luna Rossa goes the traditional route. The exterior skin wrap of the tortellini is created by boiling potatoes the day before and breaking down the end product to create what is known as potato flour. The filling of the tortellini is short ribs that is grilled for well over 10 hours and seasoned very lightly. The process in all takes several

PLACES

days to complete, but the end product is incomparable to anything else. Gnocchi, I was corrected in reiterating it’s proper pronunciation as “nyo-key”, was my favorite dish of the menu. As a big fan of Italian cuisine and having tried hundreds of different types of gnocchi in the past, I proudly make this next proclamation: Luna Rossa serves the best gnocchi in the entire country. Gnocchi for those whom have never had it is the “Italian dumpling” sans the filling. It is a light entrée that produces light, heavenly bites with each spoonful. It’s one food you have to try to understand. Luna Rossa spoils its customers because once you have their cuisines, nothing else comes close. The texture, flavor, and presentation of the plates proudly given is second to none. Throughout the entire meal I was assisted by Stefano who not only yields deep Italian roots but was also incredibly proud of the product coming out of the Luna Rossa kitchen. From wine pairing and food recommendations, the staff here is beyond knowledgeable of what works and what doesn’t. In the end of my meal, I asked Stefano to describe the food that Luna Rossa serves: “traditional, simple, and good” was all that he said. And I could not agree more. Luna Rossa currently serves three locations nationwide. To find out more about this incredible eatery, check out LunaRossaRistorante.com. Luna Rossa is our to-go place of the month! //by Mara Ignacio

HOP ABOARD NEWPORT LANDING Tens of thousands of California Gray Whales migrate annually along the Southern California coast during the winter months through April. During the gray whale migration it is not uncommon to view 5 or more gray whales per cruise making for excellent viewing opportunities. On your quest for sightings of the gray whales, catch the spunky dolphins, barking sea lions, and so many more sea animals that are native to Southern California! Newport Landing Whale Watching has provided whale watching cruises for over 30 years. With backgrounds in marine biology their captains offer descriptive narrations that make the whale watching experience a rich one. Most cruises last between 2 – 2 1/2 hours,  and are almost always successful in spotting whales. In addition to breathtaking blue whales, Newport Landing reports spotting finback, minke, orca, humpback, and even sperm whales. Of course, it’s common to encounter friendly pods of dolphin and sea lion, too. For more info on Newport Landing, call 949-675-0551 or visit newportwhales.com.

HOP ON, HOP OFF MAKE A BEELINE FOR STARLINE TOURS Whether you’re a visitor looking to see the sights of Hollywood, or like me, a seasoned SoCal mom who’s always a bit too busy to find time to see the sights, Starline Tours is the way to go. Starline Tours offers many tours to choose from. I’ve got three daughters, and for my family’s adventure, we opted for the Hop-On, Hop-Off Double Decker Fun Tour of Hollywood on an open-air bus. This particular tour stops at 17 different locations where you can hop off at any time and see the sights, then catch the next bus 40 minutes later. We checked in at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, and our day was already starting off with delight. The girls were mesmerized by all of the stars’ hand and footprints left in the cement. There seemed to be hundreds of them. We boarded our big red bus and headed to the top level. My kiddos were so excited to see Hollywood. Here’s just a taste of some of the awesome sights we experienced: - House of Blues Sunset Strip - Nickelodeon Studios - Millions of Milkshakes - LACMA - The Original Farmers Market - Pink’s - Paramount Studios - Pantages Theatre, Hollywood - Hollywood Walk of Fame - Madame Tussauds Hollywood - And so much more… The main Starline Tours terminal is located at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre at 6925 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood.
