The Promenade's Cabo Cantina: Only for Happy Hour
I’m not a big fan of sports bars but I am a huge fan of happy hour. And Cabo Cantina has a pretty good 2-for-1 happy hour, but that Brentwood location is a zoo, good luck finding a seat or even your feet for the rest of the night. So I was somewhat relieved when…
Kumo: Sushi With a Side of Spectacle
When I first heard about Kumo, ex-super agent Michael Ovitz’s new restaurant, I instantly shuttled it off my radar. It’s industry, it’s expensive, it’s so not for me.

25th Annual American Wine & Food Festival
OMG, had so much fun last night. Would have been even better if I had a designated driver but as it was I just didn’t drink all that much. Le sigh! I so wanted to try the Patron tequila bar, the Belvedere vodka bar, the Moet & Chandon champagne bar and all the various wineries…

Dear Caroline on Crack: Westside Dance Club Bday?
Hey Caroline, Looking to find a cool place to throw a little shindig for a friend’s birthday on a Friday, Saturday or even a Sunday. Somewhere in between Hollywood and the Westside (Venice or SM) would be great. Not too mellow or crazy — but dancing the night away isn’t a bad idea either. We’re…
