Yumminess at Umami Burger
Friday, July 23, 2010 18:47 7 CommentsI first heard of Umami Burger a couple years ago from a coworker. Somehow, the thought of paying $10 for just a hamburger seemed ridiculous, so I passed.

The Scoop on Scoops
Thursday, July 22, 2010 13:36 13 CommentsDear Readers,
I have done something absolutely horrible as a foodblogger. I’ve been holding out on you. A while back, I discovered Scoops, a taste of heaven for gelato and ice cream lovers. It is my favorite stop for a sweet treat, and I usually stop by once or twice a month. [...]

Tuesday, April 13, 2010 15:22 5 CommentsBy now, I’m sure you all have heard about the food truck craze taking L.A. by storm. Food trucks aren’t really that new.

Monday, November 23, 2009 21:11 7 CommentsI am about to break one of my personal foodblogging rules. With so many great restaurants in L.A., I have always refused to redo a restaurant review. I might go back and add notes in the comments section, but once I post something, that’s it… until now.

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 21:52 7 CommentsA month and a half ago, I wrote about attending Extravaganza for the Senses. One of the booths there was a new organic produce delivery service.

Extravaganza for the Senses
Sunday, July 19, 2009 23:48 4 CommentsI realize I have been rather quiet here on lafb of late. To make up for that, here’s a big post with a whole lot of food mentions. Yesterday, I went to the 20th Century Fox Studios Lot for the 12th Annual Extravaganza for the Senses. For those who might not be [...]
Getting What’s Fresh at Fraiche
