Border Grill in Santa Monica

Last week I announced that I would do a Cinco de Mayo series highlighting Mexican restaurants that either have exciting dishes or are staples in the LA area. The first was Guisados and after them, I was ready to try the next restaurant. Too bad things didn’t go as smoothly. Instead, work got a hold

dineL.A.’s Restaurant Week: BOA in Santa Monica

The food paradise known as dineL.A.’s Restaurant Week is in full swing. That means the everyday eaters have their stretchy pants on and food bloggers have their cameras ready in eager anticipation to try out new restaurants.

Plan Check in Santa Monica

I love cheeseburgers, a lot. I love them at any time of the day, from any restaurant, and find it difficult to decline a free cheeseburger. Put it this way: if a creepy old guy was standing in front of his windowless Astrovan which was parked in front of a dark alley and he had
