Escape the Stress of COVID-19 with Lunch from Della Terra

Every day during COVID feels dreary. Every day during COVID also feels like a chance to achieve a goal I’ve spent weeks and months putting off. Looking at where we are now, a world experiencing a pandemic, COVID feels like an unpredictable train ride that we all just want to get back on the track.

This Baldwin Hills-Crenshaw Restaurant Has Nashville Hot Chicken With Your Name On It

I don’t want to start every restaurant review with some sort of reference about coronavirus, but considering our current time it’s hard not to. We can go about this review as if it has no connection to COVID-19 or we could be realistic and address it head on. If you know me, I’m a “head

There’s Gnocchi, Bone Marrow, and More to Fall in Love with at Bacari West Adams

Alexis and I were at Bacari at West Adams in Los Angeles and we were scrapping the last of the Ricotta & Beet Gnocchi ($8) from the plate. It was then we realized we should have gotten two. I think the initial thought when ordering was to ride the line between glutton and discrete and

Highly Likely is a Little Ray of Sunshine on West Adams

Lately, I’ve been getting excited about leaving my job. Not because my coworkers annoy me, because I love them. And not because I dislike what I do because I’m getting pretty good at it and I like it too. But I’m beginning to enjoy the actual act of leaving work because my job allows me

6th & La Brea Opens with A Menu You Have to Check Out

I was sweaty when I walked into the restaurant. It’s the first week of August and considering the temperature, I think it should be understood that I’ll arrive damp pretty much everywhere I go. I like to pretend I’m glowing, but something makes me think that a glow doesn’t drip. Regardless how I appeared, the

Get Excited to Start Your Weekend off with Brunch at Commerson

It was an all-black everything kind of day. You know, the kind where the past week you basically ate every dish that came your way without regard for consequences. It starts out great, but then you regret it later? Yea h, one of those kinds of days. By this point, that gluttonous behavior was catching

Norm Langer Discusses the Best Meat Used at Langer’s and the Beef with Katz’s Delicatessen

Last month during the Los Angeles Times’ month-long event, Food Bowl, the publication held a variety of insightful interviews and dinners to raise awareness about food waste, hunger, and sustainability. As a part of the numerous programs available, one I attended was a discussion pastrami. Maybe it didn’t have the social appeal and community focus

BTS: Recording “Started a Cleanse” at Truth Studios

I can’t lie, recording a song for the first time was pretty scary. It was a little scarier than running out of gas on the freeway, but not as scary as finding Chucky under your bed. It was really, somewhere in the middle. Growing up I’ve parodied songs, but never did anything with them. Whether

Bars are nothing new to a heavily populated city, and Los Angeles is no exception. Having a handful of bars to choose from within LA can make the decision to find the right location to spend the evening a difficult one. Should you go somewhere in Downtown? Should you go to one near the beach

Drago Ristorante Serves Dishes as Beautiful as its Interior Design

If two years ago you asked me how I would navigate restaurant blogging, I would have let a nervous smile creep across my face, shrug, and said “Hopefully I’ll figure it out”. When I started blogging about restaurants, I had an idea of how I should go about it, but it was all too new
