Brunch'n...

My friend recently introduced me to this place in LA called Larchmont Bungalow, and it's located in Korea town/Downtown in this little area called Larchmont. I have been to Larchmont (The area) on a few occasions and I never really liked it that much. However, what made this trip so different was the little cafe down the street called Larchmont Bungalow. When I arrived, I immediately fell in love with the cafe and with the neighborhood. The interior was trendy, and it looked like another one of those fancy cafes. But what set it aside from the other trendy cafes was it's incredible brunch items...(And I can honestly say, it wasn't the nice shops that sold me either.) Inside, everyone was super nice and it is a great place to chill. There is this cool vibe that I get when I go there, and I can tell you, it definitely attracted me to it. Now I am hooked and I can't stop going there. What makes this place so interesting is that you can totally tell that this place is where the hipsters hangout. Nothing wrong against them, but it's the vibe that I get. (And now I totally love it.) Now back to the food! GO THERE FOR BREAKFAST! Sooooo GOOD. Especially their Eggs Benedict and order the "Mole" Eggs Benedict! (My absolute favorite!) You won't be disappointed. The prices here are fair and the portions are very generous. So don't worry about coming and going hungry. 

                                                                  Ain't it beautiful?


*Tip: The area on weekdays tend to have hard-to-find parking, especially on the street. So I would definitely recommend going on a Sunday, since there is free parking offered in their public parking garage.

What a bunch of jokers...

My friend not too long ago introduced me to this new sketch comedy show called Key & Peele. I was hesitant at first because I thought it was trying to be like the Chappelle Show. But after watching a few episodes, I was convinced it was something quite different, and the hosts are actually pretty funny. Check out this short clip and see for yourself.

Heat Wave...

What a hot day it was...Is it me or has this weather been acting rather strange...One day it's cold, and the next it's scorching hot. Is nature trying to conserve energy by turning the a/c on and off?   ( I think so.) Well whatever it is, let's just be thankful for the warm weather, sun, and enjoy the weekend. Also, I've included another hot jam for you all to listen to. (No pun intended.) Happy Friday.

Leaving Las Vegas

Went to Vegas over the weekend and I have to say, It is always a fun time when you go with good people. I can honestly say that I've never had so much to drink in one entire weekend. I think it was around 7 shots in one night...And the clubs...Oh wow. The clubs in Vegas are awesome as usual.
The only negative I could think of is the fact that I got kind of sick and ended up not being able to go to work on Monday. But hey, it was all worth it. I've paid my dues and I thought it was a worthwhile trip. 




On Saturday night, the club we all decided to go to is called Marquee. It's located at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, and that hotel alone is one of the sexiest on the strip. There are so many gorgeous looking girls strolling around, even though it was opened last year, it still looks brand new. Very modern, and very chic. The only draw back is the price tag that comes a long with the hotel stay. I would say around the $250-350 range depending on which days. And did I forget to mention that this hotel looks simply crazy! They have some of the weirdest and cool looking decorations inside the lobby and throughout the hotel. From the digital wall columns to the odd looking sculptures...This is one cool looking hotel!

                                                           Now do you believe me?

It was a long drive back from Vegas, and even though the weekend was too short, and I got sick, this entire experience was worth it. If you want a short weekend escape, Vegas is certainly the place to go. Only 4 hours from L.A., although it may sound far, it's really not so bad if you have the right friends to accompany you on the trip. So...


                                                               Drink up my friends.
