On a recommendation, Taylor and I swung by Le Grand Orange in Santa Monica for lunch. It’s the kind of casual-yet-quality place I’m always sniffing around for. Order at the counter from a tailored menu on which every option is tantalizing.  There’s really a wide variety of dishes and one can have as large or [...]

Ooooo, what’s this? Back-to-back blog posts? It’s like the good ole days! And it’s going to be like this again on out.  But September has been a wild ride – The Dish’s Dish had a perfect opportunity to expand to Los Angeles and we had to say “Bring it.”  The dust is settling slowly (our [...]

What the…. I left NYC less than a week ago and things seem to be going bonkers. What is this stuffed cannoli place in the LES??? Sacrilege or worth the pilgrimage?

September posts have been sporadic at best but hopefully now that The Dish’s Dish HQ relocation process is near completion, things will get back to normal and postings will return to onceish a day.
To ring things in at our new Malibu office, we decided to toast at Nobu Malibu. Sure it’s an older restaurant and [...]

Swweeeet. I snapped this shot at Yasuda on my 21st birthday and still get a little tingly every time I take a peek.

Last week in LA, my buddy turned me on to Yogurtland. It’s a newfangled yogurt chain a la Pinkberry and Red Mango but this one is self serve. That’s right, you pull your own yogurt. You also have about 10-20 flavors from which to choose and about that many toppings – that you also do [...]

Oooooo and the freezer deserves a reveal. Homemade drumsticks and mint chocolate chipwiches!

I’d never heard of Blue Velvet cake until we popped into MILK on Beverly Blvd last night. I guess it’s apt for a dessert shop in LA
Blue velvet is a chocolate based cake like red velvet but a combination of blueberries and blue dye make it a crazy deep turquoise!
Cream cheese frosting stays true to [...]
