We knew The Big Lebowski was one of the cultiest cult movies there is, but this is a new level of devotion: There’s a bar in Berlin called “Lebowski” which is inspired by the movie. Of course, White Russians are on the menu. MECLUB recently went there and fills us in on other loving details: There are bowling pins and bowling shoes hanging from the ceiling. If you step into one of the bathrooms, you’ll hear all the audio from the movie playing (in German). Most impressively of all, the ice cubes in the drinks are shaped like toes.

When Hollywood wants to show relaxation in a single image, it's often a marble bathtub overflowing with bubbles, and no wonder. There's scarcely a faster way to reach nirvana than feeling your heart rate slow while immersed in a cauldron of perfumed suds. But there's a bath, and then there's a bath. The Nam Hai in Hoi An, Vietnam, has elevated the practice of an art, crafting themed bathing ceremonies that reflect historical Tibetan, Asian, Arabian and Balinese customs. Fantastic treat ...

Read More

This beautiful hotel tops off a trip the fantastic city. This boutique hotel boasts old world, belle epoque style with a goregous spa and beds that are to die for. When I traveled to Prague last christmas with a friend, we wanted a gorgeous place to stay that was a little out of the way of the hustle and bustle of the city. Le Palais is within walking distance of all the major christmas markets in the city. If you want to take a stroll and really see Prague, starting at the hotel and ending up in the famous Old Town Square gives you a broad knowledge of the city.

A few weeks ago a group of friend and I made our way to Sound, a newer nightclub in Hollywood. It was my good friend's birthday so she set up the event for all of us including taking a limo and having a table at the club. We all decided we could use a night away from school and wanted to check out the new club. When we arrived we had no trouble in line because we had a table and before we knew it we were on the dance floor. We had a great time checking out the scene and dancing. I would say it was a typical girls night out.

Last weekend a group of us went to El Cholo restaurant before a fraternity formal for dinner. I had actually never been to this downtown LA spot but it sounded like a good time to me. It ended up being a big group of us and was so much fun. It's great for college students looking for a fun time with friends but is not anything fancy. Good Mexican food, great margaritas. Simple and fun. It's super close to USC and a fun place for pre-invite dinner.

Villa Rosas Inn
Travel | Santa Barbara, United States

Read More

I wanted to take my girlfriend on a last minute trip to Santa Barbara. I called what felt like most of the hotels in the city and eventually found the Villa Rosas Inn. It was a beautifully decorated, homey inn and the room was quite spacious. In the morning there were complementary waffles, cereal, yogurt... basically enough to feed a hungry man. In the evening they served crackers, cheese, salami and wines. With the hotel being right next to the ocean and a block away from State Street, it makes it quite the fun, romantic get away.

If I could describe India in one word, it would be whirlwind. A whirlwind of culture and emotions. Our time in India also went by like a whirlwind; a country like this cannot fully be discovered in a short six days. As someone nicely put it in my World Theatre class this afternoon: “Semester at Sea offers us an appetizer of every country, but in India we were barely given a sip of wine.” I was fortunate enough to be a part of an organized trip by Semester at Sea to the intriguing cities Agra and Varanasi. On the first night, we flew from Chennai to Delhi on Kingfisher Airlines.

Read More

The Trappist monks of Aiguebelle, who never will be financially supported by the Vatican, decided to concentrate for income on a form of hotel business, which for years now, many orders are trying world wide - a spiritual retreat. It is a chance for guests to escape noise, commerce, computers, cellphones, the husband or the wife, because they are, usually, not bedded together.

It was supposed to be a day of celebration-acceptance into university, a promotion, or just a dinner of love or sober business, drowned by a bottle of Bordeaux or Chablis. Reservations had been confirmed at ”L ‘Ambroisie ”, the three star restaurant on Place des Vosges, finally, after trying for three months, possibly you booked at “L’Arpége ” in the 7eme arrondissement, or you chose the historic ”Grand Vefour”, to have a chance to taste the famed ”ravioles de foie gras crème foisonné truffé”.
