It’s December in a downward economy so let’s be honest – if you’re shopping you should be doing it at deep discounts. Oh right, and the holidays are coming up so you should be buying for someone other than yourself. Might as well knock off a few presents off that list while you’re at it, [...]

I have to admit. The world of ”veggie people” food is a pretty unfamiliar study to me. Though the omni- in my omnivorous eating habit hasn’t had incentive to explore that direction, it hasn’t affected my respect for the dedication to sustainability and conservation.
First of all, it’s the dairy thing. Contrary to my inclination-toward-lactard heritage yet consistent with my having [...]

I know what you’re thinking – November puts you in the mood for pumpkin pie & spice, and a sushi restaurant normally isn’t the place you’d go to get that. But for this month, only – Nobu West Hollywood is serving up a specially-made dessert that comes with a shot. Yes, [...]

We may be in a recession – but that may be the very reason to start your holiday shopping now, just to “spread things out,” if you know what I mean. Then again, if you’re gifting from Petrossian’s Boutique, a place to get rather decadent delectables, let me first commend you [...]

Z0MG barbecue!! And it doesn’t get any better than this in LA - what a deal. It may be part of a strip mall that houses a Target, but it’s also in view of the historic Formosa Cafe. You best take Zeke’s Smokehouse seriously. Not only do they have an outdoor- and indoor smoker utilizing whole [...]

Especially if I’ve heard it to called a cult classic before. What’s really the big deal with this ball-rollin’-Katamari king-queen-person-thing?

I was lucky enough to catch the third installment of The Liquid Muse’s Cocktail Club but since then, I’m sure to not miss another meet-up. First of all, it was an opportunity to visit a new spot that I probably wouldn’t have thought to scope out and second, it was a pleasure meeting other bloggers and others [...]
