La for atlanta united vs la fc

We popped into LA for a short stay to see Atlanta united take on LA FC, while we lost it was a good trip overall.

WE stayed at The JW Marriott LA LIVE which just so happened to be the hotel Atlanta United was playing at. Great hotel with excellent amenities, lounge had good breakfast and snacks for rewards members, check in was smooth and room service was fast and efficient. This particular property shares a building with The Ritz Carlton so they also share so amenities as well such as restaurants and such.

We arrived Wednesday afternoon took a slow LYFT to the hotel (traffic is an understatement) got checked in and headed to the Dodgers game in you guessed it another slow LYFT. After the game we went back to the hotel ordered room service and crashed.

Thursday was a sightseeing day we started out by picking up a TESLA we rented for the day. First stop of the Day was LA County Museum of Art for some quick photos in front of the lamps and while in the area we walked across the street for Korean tacos that were excellent. Next stop was Rodeo drive for some window shopping followed by a drive out to Santa Monica Beach where we walked along the pier and had a corn dog. No trip to the left coast is complete without a stop by In-N-Out so that was next on our food journey before heading back to the hotel for rest and relaxation at the rooftop pool. We finished off Thursday with dinner at Broken Spanish a restaurant that sells elevated Spanish dishes, the oxtail quesadilla was very tasty. While we have eaten quite a bit and I literally have zero room left in my stomach David insisted I try Roscoe’s so that was the next stop and the chicken did not disappoint the waffle left much to be desired.

This is why loyalty to a brand is so great we were able to get a 4:00 PM check out on Friday since we would be leaving at 12:00 AM after the game on a red eye back to Atlanta. Friday was all about food and Soccer, first activity of the day food tasting with Street Food Tours LA, we stopped in different restaurants that were all really good, if I had one critique of the tour it would be that the guide calls ahead and order the food so we don’t spend so much time waiting for food.

After the tour we went back to the hotel to relax a bit before heading out for pre-game drinks. I think a highlight of the evening was once we returned to the hotel to get our bags the team was arriving as well and David hot to meet some players. He didn’t want to be a man fan so no pictures were taken.
