Discover Your Soon-To-Be Favorite Thai Restaurant in Los Angeles

A few months ago I called my friend, Lauren, in hysteria. “What happened? Did someone die? Did you lose your job” Lauren asked in a panic. “No, it’s—” I started. “Oh god, are you pregnant?” “Girl no!” I shouted. “Our favorite Thai placed is closed! Like gone, Lauren, it’s gone!

Stick Your Fork into These Three Plates from Goldilocks

I don’t think Nelly has had a legitimate radio hit since 2005, yet Goldilocks in Carson is playing “Ride With Me” like it just hit #1 on the Billboard chart. They’re also playing Ne-Yo and Ashanti. I’d love to say the music was part of a Throwback Thursday or a Flashback Friday playlist, but it

Four Reasons Why Status Kuo Could Take All My Money and I Wouldn’t Care

A restaurant I loved had been closed for three months for a renovation and it finally revealed itself. I saw the pictures online and could see just how much it had changed. It wasn’t the same restaurant that I met almost a year ago. Gone were the days of the white walls accented with yellow

Take a Look at Glendale’s Latest Pop Up

“This is going to be exciting.” I thought to myself as TJ and I walked up the stairs to K. Ramen Burger and Beer in Glendale. It may have been a bit too early to tell, but it was easy to think that as we made our way into the secret pop-up restaurant of Katsuya

Osawa in Pasadena Serves Small Plates with Big Taste

Dinner with friends has become a major part of my life. I love it because it’s an enjoyable few hours where I can catch up with people I’m close to. On this evening in particular I was meeting with an old coworker, Darin, at Osawa in Pasadena. Darin is a talented graphic designer I used
