    Pappa Don’s Delicatessen from “Modern Family”

    Via Quadronno from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ Nothing makes me miss New York more than photographs of croissants.  That’s a weird sentiment, I know – especially considering I don’t even really like croissants.  But during one of my first trips to the Big Apple, I dragged my family to Upper East Side café Via Quadronno for breakfast after coming across a…

  • Grub Restaurant from “The Hills”

    Grub Restaurant from “The Hills”

    ‘ While scanning through episodes of The Hills this past weekend looking for the scene that was filmed at Pinches Tacos in West Hollywood, which I blogged about yesterday, I just about fell off my chair when I spotted Grub Restaurant pop up in Season 5’s “Can’t Always Get What You Want”.  Amazingly, way back…

    Our Rehearsal Dinner at POP Champagne & Dessert Bar

    ‘ As I’ve mentioned many times before on this blog, POP Champagne & Dessert Bar in Old Town Pasadena is my very favorite restaurant and, even though I wasn’t even engaged at the time, when I first walked through its front doors over a year and a half ago, I immediately knew it was the…

    Olivia Pope’s Apartment from “Scandal”

    ‘ While Scandal has fallen a bit out of favor with me (for reasons mentioned here), there are two parts of the series that I will never get over – Olivia Pope’s (Kerry Washington) wardrobe (Gah!  Her clothing is amazing!) and her apartment.  I recently did a bit of research on said apartment and was…

    Sara’s Apartment Building from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ After tracking down the location of the “talking” freeway sign and Now! clothing store from fave movie L.A. Story (which I blogged about here and here, respectively) a couple of weeks ago, I embarked upon a mission to uncover all of the unknown locales from the 1991 flick.  And with a lot of help…

    Diane’s House from “Say Anything . . . “

    ‘ I have been on a major Say Anything . . . kick lately thanks to a soon-to-be published post I recently wrote for Discover Los Angeles.  While doing research for the article, I became a bit fixated on tracking down an unknown location from the 1989 romcom (one that I still have yet to…

  • Central Park’s Gapstow Bridge

    Central Park’s Gapstow Bridge

    ‘ One of my favorite places in all of New York is the tiny, little bridge known as Gapstow Bridge.  Actually, I take that back.  I think it’”‘”‘s far more accurate to say that the bridge is one of my favorite places in the entire world.   🙂   I am so enamored with it, in fact, that my entire family…
