Mama’s Favorite Things: Los Angeles

by Staff January 25, 2016

In typical Mama fashion, Mama Shelter Hollywood, the upstart boutique hotel is celebrating all-things-New Hollywood with a Hollywood go-to guide for the new (old) neighborhood — reveling in all its weird and wackiness. Most within walking distance of the hotel, Mama points the way to the very best bookstores, restaurants and bars, art galleries and historical architecture as well as the weird underbelly that makes Hollywood unique and many more surprises — such as the nearest SOS bail bonds if your weekend gets really wild.

The two-sided map features a collection of illustrations of Los Angeles’ best local lore, chosen by owner Benjamin Trigano and Jim Heimann — a cultural anthropologist and Executive Editor for TASCHEN America. He has authored numerous books on architecture, pop culture and the history of the West Coast, Los Angeles and Hollywood. His unrivaled private collection of ephemera has been featured in museum exhibitions around the world and in dozens of books.

Mama Says Get Lost

Some of Mama’s Favorites includes offbeat bookstore Larry Edmunds, watering holes The Frolic Room and The Happy Endings Bar and ice cream parlor Mashti Malone’s Ice Cream.  There are categories for sports, entertainment and SEX, and the map highlights such little-known landmarks as the American Legion Post 43, Clara Bow’s It Cafe, Philip Marlowe’s fictional office, the Beth Olam Cemetary and the Valentino Memorial. Further oddities include Museum of Death.
