Havana Nights at La Descarga LA Elite Event

{Christina and I enjoying our first Yelp Elite event}

Last night I attended my very first Yelp Elite event! I brought Christina as my date and we had a blast ;)

The night started off at her BF's apartment, where we loaned each other clothes to wear to the Cuban-themed event. She drove us to La Descarga where we stood in lines and got our names checked at the door. We walked in through their cool secret entrance and immediately ordered drinks. We had the Starr Daquiri first but later moved on to the Starr Stealers, which we preferred.

We also met several really nice Yelpers there, which I thought was so cool! Usually when you go out you just stick to your friends, but these Yelp events really bring people together. Christina and I met up with a couple of other Arcadians, and we actually continued the night with them after the event at Alcove Café & Bakery. There Christina and I both ordered Amore Tea (organic white tea with roses, lavender and mint) and shared the cinnamon apple bread pudding. Yum.

What a great night!
