Market Milkshake Mondays at Plan Check in Downtown LA
Science has made extreme advances in developing cures. Think about it, we have a cure for tetanus. We have a cure for rabies. We have a cure for polio. And hopefully, in a matter of years, we’ll have a cure for douchebaggery. Take a step out of the medical field and into the restaurant industry
Carmela Ice Cream in Pasadena
My driver’s license may show that I’m an adult, but I’m really not. Regardless of my age, I still do very childish things when I know better. I’m not immature, but I’m not-not immature. Yes, that double negative was necessary. One of my childish habits that I can’t break is eating ice cream in place
Syrup Desserts in Downtown LA
“If you put your fork in that waffle there’s no going back.” That was the voice of the good angel on my right shoulder. “Just put a fork in it already!” And that would be the not-so-good angel on my left shoulder. That was the situation that I was in as I sat with my
Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams in Los Feliz
Last Friday I read on Eater LA, that Ohio’s own Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams was opening their doors to LA. To ring in the celebration, they were offering a free scoop of ice cream to everyone who stopped by the shop between 7pm and 10pm. The minute I clocked out of work, my friend and

Sugar Pie, Honey Buns (Online)
I love Instagram. Not because of the obvious reasons. Yes, it’s a great social media platform and I can find highly relevant memes to apply to my life. But I actually love it because it puts me in mobile proximity to people and brands I may have never discovered. This happened when I was scrolling
Stella Barra in Hollywood
To the genius at Stella Barra who knew my thoughts, heard my prayers, and somehow managed to understand what my soul has needed, I say thank-you. You, the wise experimenter, have crafted a pastry so magical it belongs in a Disney movie. You’ve made a dessert that is a hybrid of my two greatest wants
