Strada Eateria & Bar (Los Angeles, CA)

I recently discovered this hidden gym of a restaurant tucked into a quiet street in the heart of downtown L.A., Strada Eateria & Bar! The menu is filled with all kinds of dishes that highlight the owner and chef’s focus on European “street food”, but done in a much more elevated fashion. Each dish was […]

Randy’s Donuts (southern California) – Holiday donuts!

I love that Randy’s Donuts has a monthly special, and this time they had two in time for the holidays!

Súp Noodle Bar (Irvine, CA)

The pho is served with a secret stir-fry sauce, flat noodles, and a side of pickled garlic and chiles. It’s a secret […]

Randy’s Donuts (southern California)

Randy’s Donuts is the world famous donut shop that you’ve seen in movies, TV shows, and music videos with the iconic giant donut that’s one of L.A.’s most recognizable landmarks. Although I usually prefer cake donuts, Randy’s makes the most delicious fluffy, raised donuts because they’ve perfected the recipe over the last 60 years! Although […]
