The Oregon-based Portugal. The Man frequently make the trip from Portland to Los Angeles. Whether they're in town to shoot a video, meet with management or play a show (catch them tonight at the Troubadour!!), the psych-rocksters do their best to hit some local faves.
P.TM brainchild, John Baldwin Gourley, dishes his digs to LA.com with a list of all time favorite places. Here they are, in no particular order:

Arclight Hollywood At The Cinerama Dome
Those theatres are so cool, I love that you can reserve seats ahead of time, and that you have plenty of space. When I was in town last month, I went to see "Inglorious Bastards" there. Movies are my favorite thing ever, so I really love seeing a movie at Arclight.Milk
Milk has really great ice cream. I had cinnamon ice cream for the first time at Milk and loved it. I think also, that as an artist, one key to my wanting to go there the first time, was the store's logo - it's so cool.Giant Robot
Giant Robot is a pretty amazing store, there are so many things to just look at, so many things to see, just walking into the store. It's like a dream world for artists.Griffith Park
We were doing a photo shoot up near Griffith Park one day and our van broke down. We ended up spending about five hours walking through the park, eating churros, going to the pony ride - we had the best time.Tere's Mexican Grill
Tere's on Melrose has the most amazing ceviche. Every time I go there - even on consecutive days - I always get the ceviche.
