Sunday Brunch at Fraiche

nobody@vox.com(Ann) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 08:57:51 -0800

Typical Sunday morning ritual for us: Me: What do you want to eat? Him: I don't know. What do you want to eat? Me: I always pick. It's time for you to pick. And on and on. I'm at my wits' end. I decide to shut my eyes and my mouth and let Him dri...

Finally! Daikokuya

nobody@vox.com(Ann) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:11:50 -0800

I've been reading about this place forever and every attempt to eat here has driven me elsewhere or to Mr. Ramen, home for waiting-in-long-line quitters. This time I had Him by my side and He wouldn't let me quit. So, we shivered in the autumn wi...

Black Maria Gallery | Exhibitions > Mutation: a vinyl show

nobody@vox.com(Ann) — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:29:08 -0800

Dining at FIG

nobody@vox.com(Ann) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 23:40:39 -0800

I've wanted to participate in dineLA week for a while and now that I have Him around, I have a good reason to go out for a fancy dinner. After much research, I settled on FIG. I've read great reviews, but the clencher - bacon-wrapped bacon. It's...

He and I headed to Barnsdall Park in Hollywood to see the Beyond Eden Art Fair. 15 galleries, some of them my favorites, gathered to show off some of their collections. It was a great afternoon in a little piece of L.A. I'd never explored before. ...

It's a Small World Cafe Afterall

nobody@vox.com(Ann) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 23:53:25 -0700

I've decided that L.A. is a breakfast/brunch city. It feels like there are 2 or 3 breakfast-centric places in every neighborhood. It's probably all a figment of the alcohol-induced dream I had the night before. With so many choices I can never de...

Birthday Dinner at Musha

nobody@vox.com(Ann) — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:50:26 -0700

Not my birthday, but K's birthday. Us ladies went to Musha, a Japanese izakaya restaurant. The only thing I've heard about this place is that they serve a cheese risotto in a wedge of Parmesan cheese. The bigger the order, the larger the cheese we...

I missed a lot of art openings last month because of other plans and illness. Here's one of them, Terrible Yellow Eyes, art inspired by Where the Wild Things are. The movie opens today.
