Wednesday Is the New Friday at the Wilshire

Flickr shot by epmd Last night I revisited the Wilshire Restaurant for a girls’ night out (plus 2 guys) and it was a blast. I know, I already reviewed this place and gave it a lukewarm going-over at that. But with a slightly different group of girls, ones who were more about enjoying each other’s…

"Get Fat" Tuesdays: Yep, Taco Tuesdays

Flickr shot by SpeedM It’s Tuesday, you know what that means? Yep, Taco Tuesdays! Why not celebrate surviving Monday with all the delicious tacos you can eat for cheap and a satisfying happy hour? Duke’s Barefoot Bar up in Malibu offers $2.50 fish tacos for their Taco Tuesdays 4pm to close. You can order up…

Blue on Blue Bar at the Avalon: Blue Lips, Knocking Knees

Attended a bon voyage party at the Blue on Blue Bar in Beverly Hill’s Avalon Hotel last night for a friend leaving for London for six months, and I have to say that I wasn’t too impressed with the venue. Maybe it’s because we were sitting at a poolside cabana in the middle of January…

Saints & Sinners' Lounge: Abandon All Decorum, Ye Who Enter Here

The burger joint is packed…

Wilshire Restaurant: Where Scenesters and Seniors Meet for Drinks?

A friend was throwing an impromptu gettogether at Wilshire Restaurant. I had never been and quickly researched it, cuz, you know, that’s my thing. Hmm, organic food. That doesn’t sound like the usual sort of place where her and her friends like to hang. They like Hollywood “hot spots” i.e. the Cabana Club, LAX and…

Midnight at the Oasis: Party Central

Happy birthday indeed! Bee was in a pickle. She was planning to throw a huge party for her 30th birthday at the Bungalow Club (since Tara Reid already booked Mood for her 30th ;)). We had talked to the assistant manager a week before the big day and were assured that for $800 we could…
