  • Jerry's Famous Deli 12655 Ventura Blvd, Studio City, CA "I can get two things done at once: Order and eat my grilled cheese sandwich on white bread with curly fries and a Dr. Brown's, and then go bowling. Oh, and Jerry's is open 24 hours."
  • Pane Dolce 13608 Ventura Blvd, Sherman Oaks, CA "One of my favorite places to grab something to eat and a coffee or Italian soda. I know almost everyone that works there. They are the best. So friendly. It feels like family. I have been going there since I was in high school."
  • Laurel Canyon Park 8260 Mulholland Drive, Studio City, CA "I have taken my black lab Lily there for years. It's the best place for dogs to 'mingle'."
  • Loteria Grill 6333 W 3rd St, Los Angeles, CA "[At the Farmers Market on Third and Fairfax] The best Mexican food around. I love the taquitos."
  • Le Petit Greek 127 N Larchmont Blvd, Los Angeles, CA "I love Greek food, and they have some of the best. Also, everyone that works there, I think, is actually from Greece."
  • TreePeople 12601 Mulholland Dr, Beverly Hills, CA "I just plain like it there. You have great views of parts of Los Angeles, and it makes me feel like I am not in the city at all."
On the Road Picks Back to Top
  • Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area 1000 Scenic Dr, Las Vegas, NV "Not quite the Grand Canyon, but breathtaking nonetheless. Beautiful and peaceful. The hiking is amazing and so close to all the nightlife of Las Vegas."
  • Fenway Park 4 Yawkey Way, Boston, MA "Having gone to school in Boston, this is the best place to watch a baseball game. You can feel the history, plus it's not that far from great shopping on Newbury Street."
  • Centennial Olympic Park 265 Park Ave W, Atlanta, GA "I love sports, and to walk around and feel like you are right in the center of one of the largest events in the world... and it’s in our own country."
  • Lake Minnetonka 3600 Shoreline Dr, Wayzata, MN "Paris from 'American Idol' had her birthday party there, we had the greatest day. The houses and the lake were beautiful, we jetskiied all day long."
  • Space Needle 219 Fourth Ave N, Seattle, WA "The top of the space needle is an amazing spot to see the city. The restaurant up there (SkyCity) has great food."
  • Uncle George's 3319 Broadway, Long Island City, NY "Little Greek restaurant with great home style cooking. You have to try the spanikopita."
  • Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum 222 Fifth Ave S, Nashville, TN "It's such a different world from where I grew up in Los Angeles. Loving all sorts of music, country music tells so many stories. To see from past to present really is thrilling."

She says she loves Greek food...Nick's influence, I presume? It is pretty random that MSN did this, but of course we hungry (no pun intended) fans don't mind at all! Although I have no idea about all those places. LOL Maybe someday I'll go visit.

Thanks for the heads up!

Lake Minnetonka reminds me of the "Grumpy Old Men" movies...... I wonder if Katharine has ever watched those movies????

I know what you mean, "Kate4chrisandkat".  Lake Minnetonka is just a short drive away for me, too!  What was also great form me to read about were all the places that she's been to & likes out in LA.   I've been there myself, and spent a year in the same area that she grew up in & I actually know some of the spots that she's talking about in here.  And then to read about how much she liked it on Lake Minnetonka here near MY current hometown in MN.  It just makes you realize what a small world we really do live in!  

Hope we see her back here in MN soon!!!

Thanks for the article! That SkyCity restaurant up on top of the Space Needle is pretty famous--and has a lot of history behind it. Even Elvis shot some scenes up there for a film he did called "It Happened at the World's Fair" in the early 1960's. I've never eaten in the restaurant (well, I peeked in there briefly when visiting a few years back)--but if you don't like wind or heights...then that restaurant won't be for you. I'm talking about getting blown around by the wind BEFORE going into the restaurant, since the restaurant is indoors. Obviously, though, Kat has big, sexy hair that still looks cool in the wind--and she seems to like places where you can look down on things. I like that too--especially when you want to get away from everything and want to take in a view of the world around you.

Too bad Kat didn't have time to investigate Portland, OR when they were up here during the 'AI' tour last year. But I think they were only here for one night and obviously had no time to see anything. She'd probably love the rose gardens up at Washington Park. You get an amazing view of the city skyline up there while being surrounded by hundreds of rose bushes. It's a must-see if any of you visit up here. And there's plenty more...especially the shopping. Even Britney Spears loved the shopping in Portland when she visited here a few years back--despite that not being the best spokesperson for shopping here.

Interesting that Kat likes to bowl so much, despite that still being a rite of passage when you live in Hollywood. Bowling alleys down there are always popular and have been plentifully around in that area going back to the olden days of Tinseltown. That little restaurant/bowling alley may be a famously old one that's been around for decades.

Next stop for Kat: The famous sites of Europe. No bowling alleys in places like France, though, as far as I know. If they do, it's probably something high concept.
