The Sweet Escape

Chapter 21: The Sweet Escape

Just like in Hollywood's most romantic comedies - the sweetest
moments, the most passionate kisses and caresses, may happen
when the ferris wheel on Santa Monica Pier stops all the sudden,
the stars sparkle above you and the view is fascinating - this is
the special moment to indulge in a kiss. Amidst an enchanting
scenery and a mellow, cozy vibe watching the sun go down - L.A.
is a place where true romance is alive - from corny to sweet to
classy to hot - Angelenos know how to create a sexy vibe.

Especially the seaside, and in particular the infamous Malibu is
home to some most romantic eateries and cute little Inns where
love is being celebrated in high - L.A.- style. So why not wriggle
out from the so absorbing hustle and bustle of Tinseltown and hit
the road, 18 miles up PCH in order to celebrate a feast for heart
and senses.
The steep pathway to the Hideaway Café is charmingly lined
with roses and wildflowers. Tucked away in a heavenly breath
taking atmosphere near the ocean, set atop a hillside and
overlooking Zuma Beach, is this cozy country-style cottage Café
a heaven for couples and a hot spot for dates. The main attraction
is the stunning view from the extensive wrap-around patio with
a gorgeously illuminated pool and warming fire pits, that guarantee
romantic outdoor dining during day and night.
For a romantic evening (wear a cute little dress and some sexy
heels), arrive at sunset and sit under the stars to soak in the warm
breezes and the sweeping view over the dark ocean and palm trees.
Let Champagne flow and toast to this glamorous moment.

What's on the menu? Dining guests order the eatery's culinary
highlights like ahi tartare, macadamia-crusted halibut with mango-
papaya citrus sauce or osso buco served over spinach risotto. The
breakfast/brunch bill of fare includes omelets, French toast, huevos
rancheros and other faves that are served until mid-afternoon. If
you come here during the day don't forget to bring your big-ass
shades.

The staff is extremely discreet and highly professionel. Expertly
trained waiters present impressive manners while always maintaining
a low profile - holding the door for the ladies, greeting and nodding
politely and always letting ladies walk first. Who knew that LaLa Land
can be so romantic and so graceful?
