My girlfriend and I had a reservation at Petrossian WeHo on the last day of Dine LA. It was my long overdue date with Petrossian and it ended up falling on a day El Nino came out to play. Light rain, grey skies, black umbrellas and puddles on the ground as we zig-zagged into the Robertson boutique.

It’s safe to say that the first ever Taste of Abbot Kinney can be logged in the books as a success. I had a great time going from restaurant to restaurant (especially in the company of Caroline on Crack, H.C. of LA-OC-Foodventures, Sam of LAist – while running into The Delicious Life and Choisauce), having [...]
