Syfy channel's FaceOff...

Our Miranda is making a name for herself again! She is competing in this seasons competition of Face Off on the Syfy channel. This is the show where the competitors put their best work to the test in special effects make-up. The imaginations are incredible and to see the process come to life is intriguing to watch. And of course, we are cheering on our Miranda! Watch it on Wednesday nights, at 10pm, on Syfy.

Killer Shrimp is Back!

... who knew?! Back in the early 90's, one of the Betsey Johnson alumnus started the fave restaurant for all of our BJ crew, Killer Shrimp, located on Washington Blvd in Venice. Simple concept, you got either the 'original' shrimp (served in a secret butter, beer, seasoned sauce with french bread for dipping) or shrimp over pasta or shrimp over rice. The preference for those in the know, the 'original' with a Corona and then finish it off with a slice of sweet potato pecan pie! Mm Mm goooood. Soon after, there was a 2nd location in Studio City, on Ventura Blvd. 2-3 years ago, both locations closed down much to the dismay of us shrimp lovers.

But now! Killer Shrimp is back and located on Admiralty Way, down in the Marina. In a larger space with an extended menu, but the 'original' is still on there & tasting as good as ever. I went there last night for a birthday dinner for one of my ex-Betsey Johnson cohorts and it was like turning the clock back 20 years.

If you enjoy shrimp, this is a 'must have.'

New Find...

... for good eats! Little Dom's, located on Hillhurst, about one block south of Los Feliz Blvd, is a great find. This past New Year's Day morning, my fiance & I went there for breakfast. I always drove by in the past and would see a crowd there feasting. Feast, we did! He, on a scrambled eggs bruschetta, grilled baguette, roasted tomatos & pesto. I, on a porcini mushroom, potato fritatta special. And the coffee... was a real cup of coffee. This is a charmer with a timeless, old world feel and I will definitely be going back to try one of the nightly dinner specials. Wild boar, anyone? Check it out!
