L.A. Food & Wine 2014 (Los Angeles, CA) #2

*Update* See all L.A. Food & Wine 2014 coverage here, here, and here. It was time for the Saturday The Lexus Grand Tasting session of Los Angeles Food & Wine Festival, and I was pumped! Besides the food, I thought the decor was amazing.  It was gorgeous, but you will have to excuse some of the pictures […]

L.A. Food & Wine 2014 (Los Angeles, CA) #1

*Update* See all L.A. Food & Wine 2014 coverage here, here, and here. I was absolutely over the moon to attend my first Los Angeles Food & Wine Festival and it was an amazing experience.  Over the next four posts, I have so many delicious bites to share with you!  Quick note, I regret that I missed the first event, […]

L.A. Street Food Fest 2014 (Pasadena, CA)

Last year, I had to miss L.A. Street Food Fest because I was out of town and it just nagged at me the whole year because I KNEW what I was missing… the best food event of the year!  So when the date was announced, I cleared my calendar and impatiently awaited the date.  🙂 […]

Bite at the Beach 2014 (Manhattan Beach, CA)

I had the pleasure of attending the First Annual Bite at the Beach in Manhattan Beach, which was ridiculously fun!  Although I rarely write about beer here, my guy is certainly a beer aficionado, which has rubbed off on me.  On our recent trip to Bruges and Brussels, he made it a point to try three new beers […]

Bouchon Bistro (Beverly Hills, CA)

Greenspan’s Grilled Cheese (Los Angeles, CA)

After the TEAVANA Oprah Chai event, I was seriously hungry!  I had skipped breakfast and was stuck in traffic for almost two hours before getting to the event, so all of that wonderful tea was the only thing keeping my stomach from growling.  Well, the event was held at the Starbucks on Melrose, and I […]

Ditmas Kitchen (Los Angeles, CA)

I had been hearing about Ditmas Kitchen for a while now, and I had never eaten at a kosher restaurant before.  Also, I knew that the chef was a former contestant on Top Chef, so I was interested in seeing what all the buzz was about.  🙂 It ended up being a free night, so […]

Carnival of Cuisine (Las Vegas, NV)

As you may know, we were in Las Vegas for an event, but I never said what event…  It was the 6th Annual Carnival of Cuisine at The Venetian and The Palazzo!  Now, you may have never heard of this, which is part of their “Winter in Venice” celebration, but it is oh-so fun.  🙂 […]
