So, as I mentioned in my Lisa Hoffman post, I spent a fab weekend in the Los Angeles area recently. A friend and I flew out to celebrate the birthday of a pal and she in turn, subjected all of her friends to a super fun scavenger hunt to celebrate.

One of the most memorable scavenger hunt challenges landed the manliest man on each team straight into the pedicure chairs at Venice's lovely Nite Spa. Our boys were primped within an inch of their life at this adorable beauty haven, tucked away on a side street of this charming beach town.

Nite Spa has a lot of character - it's a comfy spot with clever artwork and details and best of all, it offers a full spa menu from noon-midnight each night (with the exception of Mondays - they're closed) accompanied by complimentary wine (wahoo!) It's a genius concept - I mean, how often have I been hurting for a pedi and unable to rush home in time to make it to my local Astoria, Queens spot? Too often, let me tell you.

If you're in the Venice or Santa Monica area, check out Nite Spa at 1301 Abbot Kinney Blvd (entrance on Santa Clara Ave.) in Venice. Call 310.396.5122 for an appointment.
