Easter Roundup: Brunch, Sweets and Cocktails
Seems like everyone is eggcited (sorry) about Easter this year what with all the Easter brunches around town. But I thought I’d narrow things down to Easter brunches with a twist, with something other than the usual holiday fare. And I’ve also included cocktail and sweet treat options. Big Deal: Henry’s Hat in Studio City…
Cocktail Menu for Tonight's First & Hope Red Rover Bar Night
I know I already wrote about First & Hope Supper Club’s Red Rover, Red Rover event but this time I was able to get the cocktail menu! Yup, as a reminder: Red Rover, Red Rover is First & Hope’s new bar night tonight. Yes, nearly a month before the supper club’s official opening on April…
Silverlake Wine's First Ever Rum Tasting This Wednesday
Let’s just get this out there. I love Silverlake Wine. Really awesome selection of wine, helpful and non-snobby staff and fun, low-key wine tastings. So I was super excited to hear that they’re going to be doing their first ever RUM tasting this Wednesday the 24th …and then subsequently bummed when I realized the event…
Always Happy Hour at Drago Centro: $5 Classic Cocktails and Affordable Bar Eats
“Happy Hour hours are whenever we are open, always happy at our bar!” said Drago Centro‘s beverage director/sommelier, Michael Shearin when I asked him when was the downtown restaurant’s happy hour.

First & Hope Supper Club Debuts With a New Bar Night: Red Rover, Red Rover
OK, so First & Hope Supper Club didn’t open last night as planned and will instead open up toward the end of this month. That’s OK, though, because Aidan Demarest and Marcos Tello of Tello/Demarest Liquid Assets cocktail consultation want to kick things off with a bang. And their new bar night, Red Rover, Red…
Blog Bite: Virgin Taverine at the Tavern
Bored and alone, I found myself having dinner at the bar in the Tavern in Brentwood. No biggie if I were able to drink cocktails but since I’m liquor free for Lent-ish this made keeping my own company a boring prospect. Fortunately the Tavern has a nice cocktail menu comprised of fresh juices. Unfortunately, they…
Rush Street: Girls' Night Out of Pole Dancing & Girly Drinks
I did something the other night that I swore to myself I’d never ever do. I took a pole dancing lesson. Yup. Rush Street has an ’80s ladies’ night on Wednesdays on its second floor where ladies can take a free pole dancing lesson courtesy of Studio City’s pole dancing/fitness studio, Polistic. And I was…
This Weekend: Mmmacallan, Comp Cocktails, Free Grooming
Sure, there’s that nerdy-awesome Star Warz Burlesque show on Saturday and Morton’s Steakhouse’s even nerdier celebration of Pi Day on Sunday with $3.14 slices of key lime pie but if you were looking for non-nerd things to fill out your weekend (not that there’s anything wrong with being a nerd) I present to you the…
CoC's Giving Up Booze for Lent
For Lent, I decided to give up booze. Now, I’m not religious or anything, I just figured it would be cool to see if I can actually give up my most favorite thing (next to gummy bears, salted caramel, dark chocolate and bacon) for 40 days. That, and I felt like my liver could use…
