Eating Out

Now, introducing the "Eating Out" page! Here you'll be able to find all of my adventures of finding good food other than from my own home :).


I always thoroughly investigate restaurants before I eat them, I don't know why, but I feel it's necessary! If you like to do the same, then that's what this is for. Don't take me too seriously though, I wouldn't consider myself to be the best food critic since I am far too easily pleased!


Added bonus: there's a nice little button on the left side to direct you to all of this goodness. Yipeeee!

  4. Have you tried Urth Caffe...there are four or five locations in LA, but my favorite one is in the downtown industrial area (Alameda and 5th street...around there)

    If you like the beach- Santa Monica main street (if I am remembering correctly)
    West Hollywood crowd - I think on Melrose
    Bev Hills...near the newer Anthropologie!

    I used to work on 7th/Alameda at a charter school - now... I'm in Texas

    Try their Spanish Latte mmmmmmmmmmm
    And their desserts are always fabulous.

  5. @ Honey: I haven't tried Urth yet! I've always wanted to but never got the chance - definitely will next time I'm in the area :) Mmm what's a Spanish latte?
