sugarFISH - Sweeter Than Nozawa

Friday, August 22, 2008 21:35 3 Comments

A few days ago, I went to celebrate a friend’s birthday. He is an avid fan of Sushi Nozawa. In fact, he was the one who took me there for my birthday last year. For his birthday, he said he wanted to try a new place, sugarFISH… by Sushi Nozawa. [...]

Madeleine Bistro - Tarzana

I’m a carnivore, and I’m not ashamed to admit it.  A leg of lamb, studded with garlic?  Delicious.  A juicy steak, cooked to a perfect medium rare?  I’m in.  But, in the end, I’m a food lover.  Period.  I love all food, and my only criteria, truly?  It’s got to taste good.  So when I [...]

Electric Karma ~ Exotic Ambiance

Saturday, May 24, 2008 11:46 1 Comment

Last year my feelings about Indian food went from 0-10 in a matter of one week. Prior to that time, I ignorantly assumed all Indian food was “covered in curry,” which was, in my mind, a thick, pungent green sauce I’d tried in Australia and quite disliked. Eventually a friend convinced me to try Electric [...]

Do I like Greek food?  As my best gal pal Vanessa would say:  does a one legged duck swim in a circle?
The answer is a resounding  Ne! (which sounds like no, but is actually yes, in Greek.)
Now that my Grandma has passed I don’t get Greek food cooked for me nearly as often as I [...]

In a rather savvy cross-promotion (actually, a no-brainer, when you think about it…) the delightful ice-cream parlor and café on Beverly, Milk, teamed up with the Got Milk? people (namely, the Cali Milk Processor Board) to host an open house last night.
I spotted a handful of fellow bloggers, including the gorgeous Kristy of [...]

Musha (Santa Monica)

Wednesday, May 14, 2008 0:23 3 Comments

I had dinner at Musha, an izakaya in Santa Monica, recently and wanted to highlight some or our favorites on the menu. The place is small and gets pretty crowded at night so we made a reservation a day or so beforehand just so we didn’t have to wait thirty to sixty minutes for [...]

Spice Basil

When I was a kid, I ate in Alhambra fairly frequently. There was one restaurant in particular that I went to. I can’t recall the name of it or how the food was. I really only remember it because it was an art deco building, which stood out for that area. [...]

The San Fernando Valley is a hot spot for top notch sushi restaurants - you don’t have to drive more than a mile down Ventura Blvd.to find one. 
But I sort of feel it my mission to find places that are amazing YET relatively undiscovered.
