It was an invitation we couldn’t pass up…We look forward to the winter opening of Saint Marc Century City and creating more unrivaled guest experiences that can be shared with millions of people each year.”
Among the treats Saint Marc will offer up are a full bacon bar with 11 options of “Bacon Buy the Slice” including garlic parmesan and apple pie-flavored bacon, its famous “Choco Cro” chocolate croissant, the brie griller grilled cheese, meatloaf BLT, A-1 Ahi hot stone, New York strip and garlic fries, sprouts n’ snouts, and Kobe chili cheese fries.

Cole Haan Reopens
Lifestyle brand and retailer Cole Haan has weathered the renovation storms at the mall and has finally reopened its flagship store.
Inspired by a residential concept of a home, the store will highlight the full range of merchandise including men’s and women’s footwear, apparel, handbags and accessories.
“We are delighted to be part of this monumental makeover of one of the country’s best shopping and lifestyle centers,” said Jack Boys, CEO of Cole Haan. “Los Angeles is our second largest market in the United States and our customers have missed us during the remodel of the center. Our new store concept is a faithful departure from our original store at Century City – both familiar and new. It’s going to be a game-changer for the Cole Haan brand in Hollywoodland.”
