Checking Out The Federal Bar’s Brunch Menu!

Posted on September 22, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: North Hollywood nightclub, North Hollywood restaurant bar, The Federal Bar | 3 Comments

When people talk to me about The Federal Bar in North Hollywood, it's usually about a concert or a comedy show that they recently saw. Another friend of mine who works in the NoHo area said that it is a popular place for meeting up with friends for drinks during Happy Hour. What you may not know about The Federal Bar is that it is a great place to go for weekend brunch with the family! Located at the corner of Lankershim Blvd & … [Read more...]

Goodkid Snack Bars For the Kid in All of Us!

Posted on September 17, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: Goodkid Foods, Goodkid Snack Bars, organic fruit snack bar | Leave a Comment

The other day I felt conflicted while packing my daughter's school lunch. What should I give her for snack time? Cheesy flavored crackers? Another apple sauce pouch? Then I really felt indecisive - what Goodkid snack bar should I include? Yeah I realize these are #firstworld problems, but seriously folks, these delicious bars come in 3 yummy flavors: Oatmeal Raisin, Apple Cinnamon & Lemon Blueberry. I'm partial to Lemon Blueberry, but I know … [Read more...]

Last weekend the LA County Fair opened to much fanfare. Fun rides, toe-tapping music & food, glorious food can be found at the Fairplex in Pomona! Usually when you think of fair food, the first thing that comes to mind is that this is the place where anything & everything gets dipped in batter & fried! At the Chicken Charlie booth, you'll find a wide variety of food items that are deep fried. One such item is the newly … [Read more...]

Mint Leaf Indian Cuisine – A Hidden Gem in Pasadena

Mint Leaf Indian Cuisine 2

I’m a big fan of Indian food. Just give me some spicy samosas, naan bread & that delicious chicken tikka masala & I am one happy camper! I know of good places in Simi (my old hometown) & have a few go-to Indian restaurants in the Valley. However I was in for a treat when I visited Mint Leaf Indian Cuisine in the “other” Valley – San Gabriel Valley or Pasadena to be more specific. It only took about 20 minutes to get there from my … [Read more...]

When I stopped by the Two Moms in the Raw booth at BlogFest, I was intrigued by the name. Naturally it was the food that led me to the booth, especially since they were passing out samples of several of their products. However it was the name of the company that got me wondering what this company was all about. Shari Leidich is the founder of Two Moms in the Raw, a family-run company that makes 100% organic, gluten free, raw, sprouted, non-GMO … [Read more...]

Arctic Zero: Fit Frozen Desserts

Posted on August 27, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: Arctic Zero, Fit Frozen Desserts, low cal ice cream | 8 Comments

I don’t know about where you live but it has been blazing hot in the Valley lately! When the weather is above 90 degrees, my family (including me) craves ice cream. If it were up to my daughter, we would have ice cream every day after dinner but obviously that wouldn’t be good for our health! However there is an ice cream out there that is fat free, lactose free (great for my family/friends who have a hard digesting dairy), GMO free and certified … [Read more...]
