2009 in Boobs4Food Eats: Borough Market
To Market, To Market
Doing the necessary dining research for London, it became clear that we would have to pay a visit to Borough Market for its food stalls. I love California farmers’ markets more for its bounty of fresh produce than the omelettes, tamales, and vegan Korean banchan stalls, but with this marketplace just past [...]

Chinese Breakfast.
I frequently dream of Chinese breakfast fare, but rarely allow myself the have it. On the rare occasions that I throw caution to the wind, stateside (specifically in the greater Los Angeles area) Yi-Mei in Monterey Park is where it’s at for Chinese crullers, egg and green onion omelettes wrapped in tortilla-like skins, and [...]
An Evening with Cousin Coug
Pasta. I love pasta.
I’ve had pasta a million different ways. In my homemade beef noodle soup. Lovingly coaxed into an elegant yet rustic form at Flour+Water.

Comerç 24
Our next stop back into 2009 Eats with Boob4Food brings us to Barcelona, Spain. I realize this is another European meal, and maybe it has to do with the relaxation of being on vacation, seizing the opportunity to indulge in a city’s best food, and the feeling of not having a care in the [...]
2009 in Boobs4Food Eats: Le Chateaubriand
Le Chateaubriand
Another hard-to-book table that we miraculously scored in Paris was at Le Chateaubriand. We were famished from running around the City of Lights all day, but this meal was an opportunity that we weren’t about to pass up. They switched out our server for an English-speaking one that was handsome, effortlessly charming, and [...]
Passion in Progress: PiP – the acronym of life
Everyone knows, I’m a lover of acronyms.
It’s practically impossible to ever have a full conversation with me without me dropping in such acronyms as OSB (Operation: Sexy Beast), SOY (Summer of Yes), FOF (Fall of Fun), WOW (Winter of Weeee!), TOYL (Time of Your Life) – just to name a few, or five in this [...]
