Cereal City Guide: Los Angeles

From the leading independent travel and style magazine Cereal comes Cereal City Guide: Los Angeles: a portrait of the City of Angels offering a finely curated edit on what to see and do for discerning travelers and locals alike.

Rosa Park, Cereal’s founder, has built a loyal readership that counts on her unique, considered advice. Rather than a comprehensive directory of all there is to see and do, these Cereal City Guides offer instead an edit of points of interest and venues that reflect Cereal’s values in both quality and aesthetic sensibility.

Park has personally visited hundreds of venues in Los Angeles, distilling her preferred locales down to her firm favorites. From the laid-back excellence of its food scene, brimming with fresh produce, to elegant hotels imbued with the glamor of Old Hollywood, these are the finds that offer a more personal take on the sprawling, energetic city.

Meticulously researched and illustrated with original photography, each guide includes:

• Photo essays of striking images of the city
• An illustrated neighborhood map
• Interviews and essays from celebrated locals such as Amanda Chantal Bacon of Moon Juice and Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen of The Row
• Lists of essential architectural points of interest, museums, galleries, day trips outside the city, and unique goods to buy
• An itinerary for an ideal day in Los Angeles

Cereal City Guide: Los Angeles is a design-focused portrait of an iconic city, offering a distinctive look at the best museums, galleries, hotels, restaurants, and shops.

Rosa Park is the founding editor of Cereal, the internationally recognized travel and style publication known for its minimalist aesthetic and rigorous editorial standards. Under her leadership, Cereal has become a global authority for discerning travelers, influencing interior design trends and travel habits through its focus on art, architecture, and quiet luxury.

Beyond her work in publishing, Park is the founder and director of Francis Gallery, with locations in Bath, England, and Los Angeles. The gallery, which showcases contemporary artists and makers with a particular focus on South Korean craft, is a physical extension of the refined, calm sensibility found in her writing.

Born in Seoul and educated in Boston and New York, Park has lived a nomadic life across cities like Paris, Vancouver, and Bristol. This global perspective―combined with her background in fashion and beauty marketing―allows her to distill the soul of a city into its most essential, soulful parts. She currently splits her time between the historic streets of Bath and the sun-lit hills of Los Angeles, continuing to shape the landscape of modern travel through her uniquely considered lens.
