LA's hottest new location isn't a hot club or a pool shaped like Barack Obama's head. It's the Echo Park Time Travel Mart, whose motto reads, "Wherever You Are, We're Already There."
Natalie Portman, Michael Cera and Catherine Keener have all showed up to pick up some of those necessary commodities like robot milk and barbarian repellent.
The store, which hawks time-traveling supplies, is (shh!) a front for author Dave Eggers' nonprofit writing center 826LA. Eggers' tradition of pairing outlandish stores with his tutoring locations began with 826 Valencia, which because of its zoning had to contain a commercial venture. He's so far opened a pirate supply store, and now has a superhero shop, a space-travel emporium and a monster boutique.
