A Sunday Brunch So Good You Should Skip Church, Sorry Jesus
A Sunday Brunch So Good You Should Skip Church, Sorry Jesus
Although I may be up early every day to exercise before work, I’m not a morning person. This is especially true when it comes to the weekends—Sunday in particular. If you see me awake before 10am on a Sunday, it’s because I’m going to church. There’s very little aside from the Lord that will get
Beelman’s Pub: Late Night Eats for the Nocturnal Crowd
It was Thursday night in Downtown LA as TJ and I walked out of the Regal Cinemas at L.A. Live. We just finished watching “Captain America: Civil War” and even though it was after 10pm we were starving. While the movie was good, many scenes could have been tossed so we wouldn’t have been in
Staples Center: There’s More to the Stadium Than Sports and Justin Bieber
What do you like to eat when you go to the movies? How about when you go to a concert? If you go with me, then you like to eat whatever I’ve stuffed into my purse. Maybe it’s some In-N-Out or a nice three-course meal that I whipped up before I left the house. Regardless
Magnolia House in Pasadena (A Year Later)
Magnolia House was dark. Not the creepy, “who just touched my elbow” dark. More like the “I’ve had a long day and the dimness of this place is relaxing my life” dark. It was exactly what I needed. As my body began to calm down from work and traffic, I took a moment to walk
Tom’s Urban in Downtown Los Angeles
Heidi: Danielle! Guess what I got! Me: Two tickets to paradise? Heidi: No, I got— Me: Hit on by a cop? Heidi: Danielle, no. I— Me: Oh god, you have webbed feet don’t you? Look, I’m sure they can cut little slices in between your toes and– Heidi: DANIELLE! Poor Heidi was eager to tell
The Black Sheep in Downtown LA
TJ and I were ten minutes into our walk to The Black Sheep in Downtown LA and we were lost. Not just a little lost, more like we don’t have a Thomas Guide in 1994 lost. I thought I had GPS’d my way into this gastropub, but clearly I didn’t do a good enough job.
Next Door Lounge in Hollywood
TJ: Let me say the password. Me: No. She told me the password so I’m saying it. TJ: I’m gonna say it. Me: You better not. I’m gonna be all mobster slick and whisper the password. TJ: Too bad you can’t whisper. I paused for a second. Me: You know what to say right? TJ
Gamz in Downtown LA
It was 1:06pm and I was running late. I was invited to check out the brand new bar Gamz in Downtown LA prior to its September 10 grand opening along with some bloggers and Instagrammers and I was six minutes late. I know with these types of events five minutes is fine, but I was
Quick Drinks: The Alley in Culver City
A few posts ago I wrote about the great dinner I had at Fin in Culver City. But at the end of it, I left you with a cliffhanger about a speakeasy that lay tucked away behind the restaurant. That speakeasy is The Alley. The Alley is named after its convenient location and even though
FIN in Culver City
I have so much respect for sushi, but that wasn’t always the case. For the longest time I turned my nose up to it because I generalized all sushi to look and taste like rotten fish. It was overpriced, disgusting, and probably still moving. There was nothing anyone could do to make me think otherwise.
