quick and easy sunday breakfast

The Village Idiot

Meet Dean the owner of The Village Idiot on Melrose.  He was kind enough to let us use his space for a casting call + brunch.  Wonderful experience, wonderful staff, amazing food.
I recommend the pan roasted maitake mushrooms, creme fraiche, grilled ciabatta  also the chorizo stuffed bacon wrapped dates, roasted pepper tomato sauce is excellent.
The sandwiches are delicious - try the pub burger or the smoked pork roast.

sunday arrangement

Ka Ga Ya

If you thought your Shabu-Shabu Restaurant was the best, well think again.  Located in Little Tokyo Los Angeles, this secret little spot gets the Connect Dots Daily Excellence Award for best Shabu Restaurant in the Universe.  Don't believe me?  I dare you to take the challenge.  Ka Ga Ya is the truth.

bloody bastards

If you are ever in the City of Roses and crave for some British food + pub, check out Brits.  The Fish & Chips is on point.  Highlights: low-key, price is reasonable, very chill vibe, beers on tap, Manchester soccer is usually on the tube.

sunday funday happy days

This spot on beverly stopped serving breakfast at 2:30 but I convinced the staff to make me a old time favorite.

then headed west to watch the sunset

perfect day and night

bring the restaurant to you

I guess when you're a VIP guest in Las Vegas, you can make anything happen. Wes (Meat & Potatoes Co.), Conrad & Ben (Greyone Arsenal) and friends turned this hotel suite at the WYNN into a 4 star restaurant within minutes. Rollin' in 3 carts filled with food and drinks at 5am in the morning while being served by 2 waiters, I think this is service at its best. - ZAGAT where were you when we needed the ratings?

I'm down for Brown

One of my favorite spots in the LES. This is the place to be with good company or if you're just rollin' dolo.
Check out Brown

Off the Hook

There is so much heart into home assembled food. Thanks to my Babushka Tamara Donskaya and extended Russian family. The "Ribyetz" aka Smoked Shed is literally off the hook. All I need now is a shot of Vodka. Zagat again... you're slippin'

Patti Cake

Patti can have her cake and eat it too!

Meet my good friend Patti. She runs a food blog that makes my stomach growl with envy. (sorry guy's I know what you are thinking... but she's taken)
Her outstanding taste in food makes her blog-worthy on Connect Dots Daily. ZAGAT if you can't beat 'em join 'em.

Pasadena Power Brunch

When I'm not working, I'm eating! ZAGAT has nothing on me when it comes to food. This tasty brunch spot in Pasadena is to die for. Power Up!
