    Clown Dog Restaurant from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    ‘ UPDATE – I just drove by this location last week and was shocked to discover that the entire thing had been completely torn down.  The only part of it left standing is the All American Burger sign pictured below.  🙁  A Chipotle restaurant is currently being built in its place. So incredibly sad!  I will leave this post up, though, for those…

    The Carlyle Hotel

    Frankie’s House from “People Like Us”

    ‘ As I mentioned in early November in my post about Henry’s Tacos, I did not especially love the 2012 movie People Like Us as I found it to be a bit too depressing.  What I did love, though, was the fact that the flick was filmed in its entirety in L.A.  So after watching,…

    Chez Jay from “A Single Man”

    ‘ The April issue of Los Angeles magazine (for which I wrote my very first print article ever – you can read it here) featured a Time Frame image of one of Santa Monica’s most historic restaurants, Chez Jay, reminding me that while I had stalked the watering hole ages ago, I had yet to…

    Having a Carrie Bradshaw Moment

    ‘ I have three pretty big articles due in the coming days for both Discover Los Angeles and L.A. Magazine, and am having a bit of a Carrie Bradshaw moment.  I can finally utter her famous words, “I’m on deadline!”  Because of said deadline(s), and an upcoming trip to L.A. – the trip is actually…
