TOM’S URBAN TO RELAUNCH AS TOM’S WATCH BAR
09.03.19
Tom's Urban at L.A. Live is getting a makeover, and this fall will be reintroduced as Tom's Watch Bar, the next generation of sports bar, anchored by 360 degrees of screens showcasing sports and interactive entertainment. More than the typical sports bar, the all-new restaurant will offer a thriving "eatertainment" experience, complete with an impressive technological platform for prime time viewing including the largest TV screen in Downtown Los Angeles, as well as a new menu and creative cocktail program.
The multi-sensory experience will transport sports fans to a new dimension, with over 155 high-definition TVs throughout the renovated 20,000 square-foot, two-story space, with room for over 400 guests.
For the ultimate fan viewing, Tom's Watch Bar will feature an aptly named "Megatron" screen that comes in at a massive 13-feet high and 23-feet wide of pure sports pleasure. The 360-degree view of wall-to-wall screens are specifically designed for guests' interaction throughout every game, and there truly isn't a bad seat in the house. In addition, the sports bar will also allow easy access to its all-new website featuring a real-time watch calendar, where guests can see scheduled games up to 14 days in advance.
Tom's culinary team is hard at work updating its menu to include a variety of Tom's fan favorites - plus new items that will continue the restaurant's tradition of surprising-and-delighting its guests with unique food and cocktails. Guests will still be able to enjoy Tom's iconic two-handed 40-ounce beer steins, and it's second-level interactive U-Pour Floor that features approximately 50 tap beers, cocktails, and wine.
Construction is currently underway on Tom's Watch Bar and is expected to be completed by Fall 2019. The restaurant plans to remain open to the public throughout the renovation. Guests are encouraged to visit TomsWatchBar.com to receive additional information, be informed of special events and more.

LAGUNA BEACH BOOKS HOSTs LOCAL AUTHOR KAIRA ROUDA
09.03.19
Laguna Beach Books welcomes local author Kaira Rouda on Sunday, Sept. 8 at 4 p.m. Kaira will be discussing and signing copies of her most recent book, The Favorite Daughter. There is no charge for this event. From the author of Best Day Ever, another gripping novel of psychological suspense set in an upscale Southern California community, for fans of B.A. Paris and Shari Lapena.
The book's synopsis: The perfect home. The perfect family. The perfect lie.
Jane Harris lives in a sparkling home in an oceanfront gated community in Orange County. It's a place that seems too beautiful to be touched by sadness. But exactly one year ago, Jane's oldest daughter, Mary, died in a tragic accident and Jane has been grief-stricken ever since. Lost in a haze of anti-depressants, she's barely even left the house. Now that's all about to change.
It's time for Jane to reclaim her life and her family. Jane's husband, David, has planned a memorial service for Mary and three days later, their youngest daughter, Betsy, graduates high school. Yet as Jane reemerges into the world, it's clear her family has changed without her. Her husband has been working long days -- and nights -- at the office. Her daughter seems distant, even secretive. And her beloved Mary was always such a good girl -- dutiful and loving. But does someone know more about Mary, and about her last day, than they've revealed?
The bonds between mothers and daughters, and husbands and wives should never be broken. But you never know how far someone will go to keep a family together.
