        Foodies and critics alike swoon over the goodness that is Clementine. The downside: Century City. Is because of my year in the trenches working in the men's furnishing department at the fallen Broadway at Ye Olde Century City Mall. Probably more that the traffic is so miserable - the Beverly Hi

        When Steen came to visit, we ate local and it was great. She was all excited to have a real döner from the Turkish place near our old apartment. We ate Bavarian (lots of pork and gravy with a side of 2 dumplings.) Many things we tried, yes we did.

        One of the most interesting things I lear

      • The Day the Chicken Turned Day-Glo

        "I clambered over mounds and mounds
        Of polystyrene foam
        And fell into a swimming pool
        Filled with fairy snow
        And watched the world turn day-glo
        you know you know
        The world turned day-glo you know"
        -Poly Styrene (c) 1976

        05/21/07

        You know what's weird? I was reading through The Wednesday Chef some time ago and came upon a recipe that sounded too good to pass up. I bookmarked it, later printed it out, and finally set about making it. The recipe was called Ana Sortun's Flatbreads with Spiced Chicken and Pist

      • Falling on Hard Times
        05/18/07
        I used to live on Griffith Park Blvd. and had some really fond memories of Hart Times Pizza. In particular, they make a yummy BBQ Chicken pizza. Sadly, I'm now just outside their delivery range. Hunter and I were running errands out in Silverlake a couple months ago, so Hard Times seemed lik

        Bob and Willy are musicians. They've played together in bands over the years, and otherwise geek out frequently on music talk that often sounds like Greek to me. (I'm learning, though!) One fine spring day, Willy called and asked Bob to help him on a job at a studio on the West Side. M

        05/15/07

        We hung out with Willy last week and, as often happens, our conversation turned to food. He told us about an izakaya way, way, WAY down in Orange County, called Kappo Honda. His description was sufficient to get Bob and I to travel the 40 miles to try the place out. I could not have been ha

        I suck. I've been absent. I've been so damn busy. I have a list of dining experiences I keep meaning to post about, but life keeps getting in the way. Excuses don't help, huh? I just need to find the time, I guess. As my great friend, Betka, likes to say, "Why not now?"
