Table 8: Ted Raimi and Meh
Last night I met up with my blogger biatches, Nancy and Erin, again. This time at hip restaurant Table 8 on Melrose. I think it’s going to be our new thing: meeting up for drinks and drinks at various cool places around L.A. so we can offer our own take on it on our respective…
Face-Stuffing at the Dessert Decadence Tasting

Feeding Frenzy and Dehydration at Muse's Culver City Artwalk After Party
How to survive a sold-out artwalk after party?

So I…

Katana's BBQ Party on the Sunset Strip
Katana has yummy, albeit super-pricey sushi and a chi-chi scene that’s so not my thing, but I must admit that this event sounds like a pretty cool way to spend summer Sunday evenings: the 5th Annual Red Sun BBQ Garden, which is the sushi restaurant’s hip summer patio party. The bbq shindig kicks off tomorrow…
