"Topanga Canyon’s days of hippie communes and off-the-grid living are long gone, but there are still plenty of quirks—and fun shopping—to validate a leisurely day trip. Just be sure to grab some food at Endless Color while you’re in the area. Part natural wine shop, part retro vinyl store, and part pizza parlor, this funky, disco-ball adorned spot is a great place to post up with a nicely charred Neapolitan pie and a glass of wine from Puglia, and pretend for a few hours that you live here and have to get back to your sensory deprivation chamber soon." - brant cox
