Lazy Dog Restaurant Is Sure to Be Your Top Reason to Eat in Downey
I can be judgmental and I think admitting it is the first step to fixing it. My judgmental behavior doesn’t pertain to people like you would think, but cities. To be specific, when it comes to restaurants, I often judge them based on their location. Yep, I’m that person who would do a song and
This Meat Lover Went Vegetarian and Got More than She Expected at Flower Child
“I just want to be happy.” he said. The sentence stopped me in my tracks as I was taking photos of dishes at Flower Child in Santa Monica. It was a hard sentence to hear from anyone, but coming from an older man discussing his divorce, it struck a chord. I have no real understanding
Dulan’s on Crenshaw: Good Soul Food for the LA Eater
I was struggling to find a place to get lunch in LA. Yes, restaurant and food bloggers can have a hard time finding something to eat—it happens, don’t judge me. Ok, go ahead and judge me. I had just grabbed a almond butter protein smoothie from Open Source Organics in Hollywood, but that wasn’t a
Big D’s Burgers in Whittier
I was standing at the hostess desk asking the waitress, Jen, if I could have a table for two. Looking around at the very small dining area, I had a feeling that would take a while. With an expression that blended optimism and skepticism, she told me that the wait would be about 20 minutes.
Chomp Eatery in Santa Monica
When friends and family come into town, I like to show them a good time. You may be thinking that I give them a great city tour to Angels Flight, the Hollywood Sign, and then for a drive down Pacific Coast Highway. If that’s where your mind went then I’d tell you to pump your
Le Pain Quotidien in Downtown LA
I have such a nice boss. I mean, the kind of boss that doesn’t yell, micromanage, or make you cut the crust off her kid’s sandwich. My favorite part about her is she gives us a nice amount of time off around the holidays. Take for instance 4th of July, today. Most of my old
Knuckle and Claw in Silver Lake
Sometimes I have crazy food cravings. I’ll be going about my regular day and then suddenly it comes out of nowhere: “I need some pizza!” or “What happened to all the ice cream I ate?” To a point, I feel like a hungry pregnant woman. Only thing is I don’t get a party with gifts
Bombo in Downtown LA
I know that I’m fat on the inside, and kind of on the outside too. But last week, my fatness reached a new level as I encountered my own fat sense. It’s like a Spidey sense, but it doesn’t have a cool costume or web slinging abilities. Instead, it’s an ability to know that something
Big Kitchen Cafe in San Diego
When I’m in a city where I’m unsure of where to dine, I prefer to ask someone who knows. Common sense, right? Every once in a while, the earth moves out of orbit and for some reason, the person who knows where to eat comes to me. That happened when I was visiting my friend,
Trencher in Echo Park
Once in a while, I struggle to find something for lunch. There may be five to ten restaurants around, but my gut might be so indecisive that I can’t pick a place (or even a cuisine) to eat. This happened yesterday before lunch. Although I work just outside of Downtown LA and have plenty of
