Food to EAT, Things to SEE, Places to GO
We started out our fourth year of lunches on beautiful day at West Hollywood’s Terrine. Terrine is a California brasserie that combines classic French dishes with a Californian flair. Helmed by Chef Kris Morningstar, Terrine’s seasonal cuisine served on their lovely patio was the perfect setting for our first lunch […]
The Bellwether, in Studio City, was where we had our October Ladies’ Foodie Birthday group lunch (see post here). It was great then and it has gotten even better since! This Dine LA dinner was actually an impromptu visit as earlier plans to go elsewhere fell through and we wanted […]
Chinatown’s new Pok Pok LA was the second of our January 2016 Dine LA visits. This latest venture from Portland’s Andy Ricker was fun and bustling for a weekday lunch. It was nice to see the old Mandarin Plaza have a little life again even though the vast majority of […]
Our December lunch was held on the perfect day at the perfect place! The patio at West Hollywood’s Eveleigh is the perfect spot on a clear sunny day for a relaxing lunch with girl friends that. Great food, friendly service, and a killer view of LA’s Westside made this the […]
Now that the Thanksgiving turkey is well behind us, there’s still time to turn our attention to the holiday get-together! We have been coordinating a monthly ladies luncheon for the last three years so we’ve got a pretty good list of great places to check out if you are thinking […]
We had a special treat for our November Ladies’ lunch. Chef Suzanne Tracht opened her acclaimed LA restaurant, Jar, for us (it isn’t normally open at lunchtime) and prepared a delicious meal featuring some of the dishes for which she is most known. Jar, opened in 2001, is a modern […]
Downtown LA’s Redbird opened to much anticipation earlier this year and it has not disappointed, if all of the positive reviews are any indication. When they opened for lunch service in April, we knew we wanted to try to arrange a lunch there and our wish came true for September. […]
A summer heat wave started just in time for our August lunch, and although it was a bit warm, the plant and light filled greenhouse (fortunately air-conditioned too) that houses Koreatown’s Commissary Restaurant on the second floor of the Line Hotel was the perfect compliment for the weather and our […]
Our July Foodie Birthday lunch was a great affair at the cozy seafood-centric Son of a Gun. Our smaller summer numbers were a perfect fit as 27 of us took up a good half of the restaurant for lunch. Located in West Hollywood on Third Street, just a couple of […]
Our June 2015 Foodie Birthday lunch was the last lunch before everyone scatters for the summer and produced our largest turnout ever. 57 ladies showed up to enjoy a wonderful Vietnamese-fusion meal at the newly opened District by Hannah An in West Hollywood. The District is located across the street […]
