A TO ZA’ATAR

When planning my trip to Los Angeles, I made a long list of venues to visit (literally, twenty restaurants).  While I now wish I had done a bit more to find a POC/WOC kitchen to dine at, I’ll admit, I was swayed by the amount […]

Today we welcome a collaborative post from a talented contributor.  Enjoy, C.  With Christmas fast approaching, you’ll likely be thinking about what you can get for your foodie pals! Friends who love food are great fun to buy for because there are so many options […]

A week centered mainly around writing (and planning and writing some more).  We did manage to go for a quick stay at Melia Desert Palm. It’s 2019, women should be seeing prices on menus. Have you noticed a lack of dressers in your hotel room? […]

October came and went in a flurry of events and good food.  Most of my best dishes this month were off the menu or for special events, but that’s my life now?  #humblebrag Wagyu tartare, Tasca Tomato tartare, 3bk Quinoa and egg, Rare Very honorable […]

A busy week…at home!  That’s right — I turned down every invitation this week (except a very limited few) and loved every minute of it.  I made progress on my book.  I worked out.  I didn’t drink.  I pitched places.  I might have possibly come […]

Here and there and everywhere this month, but honestly, not that many memorable meals (or, at least not as many as I was expecting, given the range of places I visited).  I think it’s okay to be disappointed, but I was a bit shocked at […]

Another weirdly busy week (not that I’m complaining)!  I was the mistress of ceremonies for my first official event, went to a very strange Italian meal, got caught up on many of my reviews, and did my best to prepare for presentations and panels coming […]
