International Eats: Yayoi Japanese Restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand
When you’re on a beautiful island and you’ve explored almost every nook and cranny possible, you would think you would be low on funds as the vacation comes to a close. That wasn’t the case while my cousins and I were in Phuket. The conversion of US dollars to Thai baht worked in our favor
International Eats: Dee-Lish Restaurant in Phuket, Thailand (Back Again!)
We went back to Dee-lish Restaurant. When I think about it, there was little time between our first visit and this one that I’m not sure we even left. Regardless, the food was so good that I was glad to be back in comfortable surroundings no matter how foreign they were. We weren’t at the
International Eats: Dee-Lish Restaurant in Phuket, Thailand
Every morning I say a prayer. Usually I tell Jesus thanks for making me so funny and kind of cute, but every now and then I have to give him a reminder or two. Like, don’t forget to send the man of my dreams today, keep my belt strong against this gut, or send some
International Eats: The Lucky Shamrock in Beijing, China
Not too long ago, my three cousins and I planned an international vacation. My cousin Brittany had her nose so deep in graduate books she couldn’t see clearly, Alicia was speaking in law terms instead of complete sentences, and I was itching to experience a surrounding other than Los Angeles. That left one last cousin:
Tatsu Ramen in Los Angeles
I don’t think I’ve ever had ramen. Well not the popular type of ramen that draws lines around a restaurant. The type of ramen I’ve had was a hard block of noodles that came in a small plastic bag. Don’t know which one I’m talking about? Well here’s a hint, its preceded by the word
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
Status Kuo in Mar Vista
When it comes to restaurants, my favorite type are the small ones that know how to make use of their space. I like them so much because the intimate space can evoke conversation and they can feel homey. Aside from conversation and comfort, what I love most is seeing a restaurant that is small in
Local Table in Downtown LA
Have you ever thought how much pressure we put on lunch? Sure breakfast is the most important meal of the day and dinner is communal, but lunch is the one that sustains us in a critical part of the day. Lunch is where we run to when we need something to fill us from being
Wood Spoon in Downtown LA
At this point in my life, there are many things that I’m still not ready for. Kids? Oh hell no, I struggle to take care of myself. Marriage? Eh…I have a hard time committing to a weekly exercise regimen, let alone a man for the rest of my life. But one thing I’m always ready
Bottega Louie in Downtown LA
TJ and I were off to a very bad start. Sure, part of it may have been my fault but I highly doubt it. My annoyance was rapidly accelerating to a sharp level 10 because I was starving and TJ was indecisive about what he wanted to eat. I didn’t care where we went, I
