Home in Los Feliz
Not too long ago I had a borderline miserable job that gave me a crummy 45-minute lunch. It was the kind of lunch where the moment I clocked out I would have to run to my lunch locale, push over anyone in my way (sorry granny), try to cut the line, and then scarf down
Blu Jam Café in Los Angeles
Have you ever had one of those moments when you’re hungry, but you’re not interested a fancy dish? It’s when you just want a plate of something that feels easy and straightforward? Since I eat a lot and tend to try new things, that feeling happens to me every now and then. By “every now
Saladish in Pasadena
My favorite time of the day is here: lunch! Err, but at the same time, my biggest struggle of the day is here too: what do I eat? Thankfully, that decision was made when I passed by Saladish in Pasadena. On Colorado Blvd. in Old Town, Saladish serves up healthy food that remains light and

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
Valentine’s Day Series: Riviera 31 at Sofitel Los Angeles in Beverly Hills
It’s that time of year. Various hues of pink are popping up everywhere and teddy bears with giant red hearts are propped against store aisles. Add to that, the scent of romance is slowly wafting into the air so you know it means Valentine’s Day is on its way. If you happen to be someone
