Hey guys, welcome back to my channel and we are back in L.A.
We just came from Mexico City and we're staying for 2 days in Los Angeles and after that we
are going to go to Newport Beach to experience a different kind of vibe.
Well, I'm happy to be back because the weather is really nice and cool here.
Well, a vast difference from where I come from.
Like Singapore is just getting so hot these days so we are really
appreciating this cool weather a lot.
Now, let's have a look at my pretty room.
We're at the Cipriani in Mr. C Hotel which is the hotel that we're staying in
and we thought we'll just like grab something light tonight.
Ordered a beet salad and I am having steak tartare because I need some red meat in my body.
So, I ordered the pasta.
When this came, I was quite happy and suddenly they put this one down.
Remember guys, when you are in the U.S., everything is American size.
So, yes, big fries, big portion everywhere.
Good morning, Los Angeles.
I'm here at the farmer's market because I really enjoy the farmer's market here
and they have my favorite sticker shop, the Sticker Planet.
So, I am going to go stock up on some Mrs. Grossman stickers which I collected for years.
Hey, I haven't seen greeting cards in a while.
Wait, which one do you like?
Which one do I like?
I know I don't want 77 birthday.
77 birthday vintage.
Oh my god, I thought you were getting 944.
78.
Who's 78?
Which friend do you have that's 78 years old?
Let's read what's inside, okay?
Some cherries usually...
Okay, they are just talking about the wine.
They didn't actually say anything sarcastic.
Go ahead, indulge yourself with your finest in-birthday wishes for that special moment
where the end of the year doesn't mean getting older.
It just means aging gracefully.
A house is not a home without a pitbull.
Oh, so cute.
Maybe I should get one for Calista.
Is that a Chihuahua one?
I think she can get one for her.
Yeah, there you go.
A house is not a home without a Chihuahua.
That's very cute.
Okay, I'm going to get her this.
This is...
Oh, okay.
A spoilt rotten Chihuahua lives here.
Or which one?
No, the spoilt rotten Chihuahua lives here is correct.
She is spoilt rotten.
Yes, that is correct.
Okay, I'm going to get that for Calista.
Oh my god, I'm so excited.
This is my favourite place in the world.
It's a sticker planet.
I love stickers.
Oh, I hope they still have Mrs. Grossman.
I don't like this other sticker.
Yes, I see it already.
It's there.
It's really rich.
We are at Erwan and we're going to have the most expensive smoothie in the world.
Let's see what it tastes like.
It's $18 USD.
It's going to make your skin so smooth.
Oh my god.
Hyaluronic acid.
Oh my god, I need that.
There's hyaluronic acid in the drink.
Oh my god.
And let me introduce you to a very nice drink.
Check out the colour.
Sea Moss Gel.
It looks like a gel, but it's a drink.
And wait, check out the price.
$40 USD.
They give you 1 cent discount, $39.99.
What a deal.
Crazy.
All right, here guys.
Jimmy's going to do the taste test for the Erwan smoothie.
It's the Hailey Beaver's $18 USD smoothie.
So what does it taste like?
Tell us.
It tastes like a meal on its own.
A meal of its own?
Like what?
Actually, it tastes very good.
I like it.
It has berries in it.
It's a little bit of milky kind of a thing.
I would pay for this.
Really?
Yeah, tastes that good.
So this would do well in Singapore?
No, because we Singaporeans are very cheap.
We're not going to spend this kind of money on a drink.
I mean, I won't do that on a daily basis.
I mean, I won't buy one.
It's a $25 Singapore dollar drink.
Okay, now Terrence is doing the test.
I like it, right?
You like it?
It's good, man.
If I can make this smoothie for you every morning,
would you pay me a lot of money?
I'll pay you for this, seriously.
Would you buy me a Chanel bag if I can make you?
Oh yes, definitely.
Yeah, but would you buy me two Hermès bags every week?
It's not worth two Hermès bags.
Damn, I tried guys.
I tried.
No, but guys, it's really good.
$18 USD, but yeah, try it.
Really good.
Only in LA.
We need to bring it to Singapore.
I will pay you to do this ad.
You look very sincere.
Like you really love it.
Oh, I really love it.
Riding in style with my friend.
Who's that?
Who's this guy?
She smells expensive.
I am expensive.
You are very expensive.
So my name is Alex.
I come from Dubai.
I'm originally Italian.
I own an eight-figure marketing company.
I'm just traveling here to get some content done
on Rodeo Drive, asking millionaires what they do for a living
in order to be able to afford, you know, the luxury stuff, the mansions up there.
Are you a millionaire?
You're a millionaire?
I see you're making good money.
So I wanted to ask what would you do for a living?
I'm a lawyer.
You're a lawyer?
I'm a very poor lawyer.
Okay, this is my favorite Dungeness crab and castration,
but I don't know whether it's still good.
Terence is very, very skeptical.
Although I've been coming here for like more than 25 years,
but he doesn't trust me.
So let him have the first taste.
Just look around.
Just look around you.
Who are the people here?
You know better.
The food here is good.
Oh my god.
I don't know.
I used to love this butter noodles,
but I've evolved a lot throughout these years.
And we'll see.
Try it.
It's good.
Okay, pass.
Okay, wait.
Hang on.
It has to have the noodles.
Otherwise, it's not going to be complete.
Ah, this is noodles.
Famous noodles.
Uh-oh.
I'm dead.
The noodles is a bit too mushy.
Tell them.
And too sweet.
Oh lord.
But overall, it's still okay.
I mean, it's not horrible.
We are going to leave LA now to go to Newport.
But before we leave,
one more trip to Irwan for the smoothie.
So that's Terrence drinking his favourite smoothie
because he wants to be very smooth.
Yup.
It's not so good today.
But the consistency is nice.
They didn't mix it well.
I bought lunch at Irwan.
I'm having this beef steak chicken soup.
A little salad.
And Terrence is struggling.
I don't know what.
But he asked me how much I paid for everything.
I said US$53.
Scam.
It's a scam, man.
No, come on.
It tastes so good.
No way.
It tastes so ordinary.
How?
Did you enjoy the lunch I bought for you?
Yes, I did.
It's very healthy.
So good for a trip like this
when we had too much of restaurant food.
So today was a good break.
So I really enjoyed the healthy food, yes.
But it's way overpriced, okay?
Okay, my hair is everywhere, guys.
I don't know how to manage my hair in LA.
And my fringe is like...
It's all over my face.
And I spilled some salad on my...
On your jacket and your pants.
I have like...
No, on my skirt and on my jacket.
Okay, guys.
We are at the Pelican Hills Resort.
We decided to take a break from the city
and come to the resort.
I'm not regretting this because it's beautiful.
And I skipped the city for this.
This is so much better.
This beautiful sunset view.
We are at the Pelican Grill.
We're going for dinner.
And let's go.
I'm gonna have some steak.
Okay, but first, a sunset picture.
This steak, it's quite...
What? Tough?
It's not tough, it's quite fatty.
Fatty?
How is it?
It's very good.
It's good?
It's really good.
Okay, guys.
We are at the Pelican Grill tonight
at the resort at Pelican Hill.
It's at Newport.
So if you guys come to this very nice hotel,
the Pelican Grill is not too shabby.
It's pretty good.
Is that mashed potatoes?
Mashed potatoes and we have cream corn here.
How is that?
Oh, very different.
Oh.
A little bit sour, a little bit like saucy.
Oh, okay.
Okay, guys.
I'm gonna eat before my beef gets cold.
That's it.
Oh, dear.
Okay.
Mimi and Don Morris have invited us to their house for a party today.
And that's why I am a little dressed up.
And Terrence has not got dressed yet.
What?
This is what I'm gonna wear.
So guys, we are going to the house of Mimi and Don Morris.
And if you have watched Bling Empire,
you would know that Mimi Morris and Don Morris,
they are on...
Was it the second season or the third season of Bling Empire on Netflix?
So they have a very fabulous house and they live a fabulous life.
And they have invited us to their house today.
Yes, for a party.
And she's going to let me go into her fabulous wardrobe.
Which when I first saw on Bling Empire, I was like...
I gotta know this lady and I gotta go see her wardrobe.
I think we're gonna enjoy today more than any other day.
So she has prepared something special.
So let's get going.
What? I'm so in awe of her garden.
Look at the big, big roses.
It's gorgeous.
This is like as big as your face.
Put your face there.
Wow.
Oh my god.
The biggest roses ever I've seen.
And they're so strong.
Gosh, you know I'm trying to grow roses in my garden also.
And I haven't started growing them.
But look at these.
They will never look like that.
It's such a pretty garden.
It is the most beautiful place.
Proper garden here.
Look at this pink rose.
Wow.
Beautiful.
So many different colours.
Yellow ones there too.
Pink.
Purple.
Roses of every colour.
Oh, there she is.
Oh, it's so good to see you again.
You look good.
You look so good.
Come in.
I have a little something for your home.
Oh my god.
Thank you, babe.
Come in, come in.
Hi.
Hello.
Wow, the piano.
Cutie, hi.
Hi, cutie.
A kitchen chandelier anyone?
Can I get a kitchen chandelier as well?
Well, if you have the ceiling look high enough.
Yes, of course.
Oh my god.
That's so gorgeous.
That's Mimi.
She's gorgeous.
Yeah, gorgeous.
Wow.
Actually, it's a good idea.
You don't have to arrange it by size.
You arrange it by size.
I think you should arrange it by colour.
Not by size.
Yeah, because it's individual, yeah.
It's all individual.
Like yours, you do like a lot of that.
But this would look crazy.
Yes, it looks nice.
This is very me.
Yes, it is very me.
There's a compartment for each bag.
You see it.
Yeah, you can see everything.
Everything is so bling.
Mimi, show me your blingers bag.
Oh, it's here.
Oh my god.
I got no gloves on.
I never do that.
I don't do that.
It's so pretty.
It goes perfectly with your outfit today.
Wow.
Don had to fly to Hawaii,
especially by himself,
to pick this up as a surprise for Mimi.
Oh my god.
Don is such a perfect husband.
Wow.
Gorgeous.
It's cute, huh?
This goes with your outfit.
Actually, it does.
Yeah.
What are these?
Can I have a look?
Oh my god.
You can actually wear this.
It's a...
Oh, that's so cute also.
Okay, so this is a bracelet.
Wow.
Very nice.
This is new too, babe.
What is this supposed to be?
Football?
No, I don't think it's a football.
I've never seen this.
This is so special.
It just came out.
Yeah.
Okay, that goes with my outfit too.
Everything goes with my outfit.
Why is that?
Is that a...
Oh my god.
It's a pill box.
It is a pill box.
Yes.
Oh, yes.
This is for you.
This is better.
Yeah.
Like a vanity case.
Yes.
You can also put your cards.
Like your money for tipping.
Tip a lot of US dollars.
And then you can slip it.
So cute.
Okay, but you know...
You can have it, babe.
I need you to have it.
Oh, wow.
Really?
Oh my god.
No, I can't.
Next time you go to your closet.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, that works out.
That's an exchange.
Then he says,
you take mine now.
When I go to your closet,
I'm going to choose one.
Oh, that's cute.
Okay, I'm just going to wear this
while walking around.
While walking around.
Where is this wedding dress from?
Uh...
Vanity.
That must be the Dolce & Gabbana tiara.
How many years ago is this dress?
And you managed to keep it so white.
Because white always changes colour.
It's like a vacuum.
Do you have like
built-in dehumidifiers inside
to keep it dry?
Because it's very dry here.
So they don't really need it.
In Singapore,
every single wardrobe needs a built-in dehumidifier.
Yeah, it's so humid.
And then the white changes colour faster.
I feel like a little girl in a candy store.
So Mimi is like me.
We love butterflies.
I can see that she loves her butterflies.
And you know,
Calista always said that
mummy reminds her of the butterfly.
So I think Mimi and I are both beautiful butterflies
who love their garden and their roses.
And that's why we're friends!
Cherry has a caviar brand.
It's called Caspian Queen.
We are going to do a taste test for Cherry's caviar brand.
There's never too much.
No, that's a lot.
It means I love you guys.
If no love, then no love.
It's so good.
Look here.
You guys ate it already?
Oh, I ate it already.
Never mind, I can have another.
Now we need some vodka.
Oh my god, her hair keep on fire.
Yeah, sorry.
Pandemonium.
Oh god.
Hey guys, today is the last day
that we will be spending in Newport.
And we are going to head back to Singapore tonight.
And it is Mother's Day.
So we are going to be spending the day with the horses.
Favourite car?
I thought oh, we were riding around in the white
but the SUV just now.
So it's parked outside.
So which is your favourite car, Don?
Well, it depends.
The Cullinan is the most comfortable.
That's crazy.
This one, I don't know yet.
I'm still playing with it.
That one I drove every day.
This is gorgeous.
Okay, I want you to guess which Lamborghini is this.
Isn't this the same as Yasmin's?
No, it's not.
No.
It's a Daihara.
I have no...
Aventador.
Aventador, okay.
Do you see that moving Lamborghini?
Because everything is made out of the whole.
So Aventador, I think this means something.
They all look the same to me, babe.
I don't know cars.
Three bouncy balls.
I love this picture of Mimi.
Yeah, it's gorgeous.
Terence, are you getting your anger out?
Oh my god, okay.
This is a mantel.
The first thing you do,
take in the nuts.
You see that?
Disable him.
Wow, okay, self-defense.
Okay, are you ready to go back to Singapore?
No, I want to stay here.
I want to extend the holiday.
It's not enough.
Okay, it's too long for me already.
You can see that my eyes...
My lashes didn't hold up.
So yes, it's time to go back to our comfy little home.
Oh yeah, by the way, I'm planning the next holiday already.
So...
What?
Yep.
Okay, can you let me have a nice time in my home for like a few months first?
Yeah, but you know, right?
In LA, I was already planning the next trip.
Oh my...
Yep, so stay tuned, guys.
Okay, stay tuned, guys.
Yep, I hope it's not going to be so long like this one because...
Yeah, I don't really like to be away for too long.
Like I miss my flowers, I miss my chickens.
And by the way, one chicken died while I was away.
So that's quite sad.
One less egg.
No, it's a baby.
So yeah, it didn't make it.
I don't know why.
But guys, okay.
I hope you have enjoyed following us on all these vlogs.
All our travel vlogs on this trip.
And we'll see you in the next video.
See you, guys.
