Local Table in Downtown LA
Have you ever thought how much pressure we put on lunch? Sure breakfast is the most important meal of the day and dinner is communal, but lunch is the one that sustains us in a critical part of the day. Lunch is where we run to when we need something to fill us from being
Crepe Studio in Pasadena
What’s the hardest thing to get when it’s 90+ degrees in LA? A spot at the rooftop pool at The Standard? Hell yes. But the real answer is ice cream. When it’s sweltering in the city and all you really want is the sweet taste of ice cream, get ready for a line out the
Mint Leaf in Pasadena
When I started this restaurant blog, one of the first things I did was I created a list of eateries I wanted to review. I found spots where I could explore food but most of them were in Venice, Santa Monica, Crenshaw, Hollywood, etc. What they all had in common was they weren’t in my
Cousins Maine Lobster in West Hollywood
It was a moment straight out of the Ben Affleck movie, The Town. Boston accent and all, I walked inside of TJ’s apartment and approached him as he sat on the couch watching TV. Standing in front of him I asserted, “I need you to come with me. I can’t tell you what we’re doing

Killer Cafe in Marina del Rey
It’s 2:17am and the club just kicked you out. You’re walking with your friends back to the car and you’re starving. Sorry, but all those cherries and Amaretto Sours didn’t fill you up as you had hoped and now, you need something to hold you over until you wake up in the next few hours.
Solita Tacos & Margaritas in Valencia
What do you do with your free time? By “free time”, I don’t mean the 2 minutes you have when you walk out of the office and to your car. I mean free time. When I think of the question, my answers are: explorations with my friends, boxing classes, watching I Love Lucy marathons, and
Celestino in Pasadena
I would love to say that I’ve eaten at every LA restaurant. That I know restaurants so well, Google asks me to give descriptions of LA eateries. Although I’m not Google’s go-to food expert, I will drop the name of a spot that creates unique dishes that you have to try. Case in point, Celestino
Macaronage in San Diego
This past weekend I was in San Diego with my friend Lauren. Sure, I could have been doing cheesy Valentine’s Day festivities with my boyfriend, but he went out of town to be with family. With an empty weekend on my calendar, I took an impromptu trip to what Ron Burgundy coined, the Whale’s Vagina.
