A Little Tokyo Day Trip

November 14, 2011 eating out

It’s a silly running joke between my internship director and me that I’m obsessed with Little Tokyo. I’m really not. I do love Little Tokyo, but I somehow hang out a lot there just because all the new hip restaurants somehow seem to cluster around that little neighborhood north of downtown Los Angeles. Also, it’s [...]

No Regrets: Live, Laugh, Eat.

September 22, 2011 dinner event

I’ve been watching a Canadian TV show lately called “Being Erica.” (Photo Credit to Miquiel Banks) I know what you’re thinking. What good can come from Canada? But this show is actually pretty good (And Canadians are awesome by the way, so throw away the superiority, fellow Americans). The main character, obviously named Erica, is [...]

Yujean Kang’s: A 10-course, 5-hour gastronomical extravaganza

August 13, 2011 blog meet-up

I called my mother almost every night this week, half-singing with glee. “Guess what I did today!” I would yelp happily. I think I really need to be in a Glee Club, because these days there are so many instances when I just want to break out into a song and start dancing. And most [...]

Jewel in The Yellow House

July 25, 2011 blog meet-up

This is the last week of my internship. I’ll be completely honest—I’m relieved. I’m breathing a sigh of relief, but there’s also sadness and reluctance mixed in there. Last week was horrible. It started out horribly, actually. I came to work early in the morning, and received an irate email from a camp director. I [...]

Artist vs.Journalist

July 21, 2011 eating out

Jane and I had some interesting conversations while she was here. We talked about the differences and similarities of an “artist” and a “journalist.” Well, I don’t feel comfortable and confident enough to call myself a legit journalist yet…but Jane graduated from Pratt Institute and is working as a graphic designer. And I don’t know [...]

Jane Eats Real Food

July 19, 2011 eating out

I haven’t done Jane enough justice. I have yet to introduce her as the true friend she is. Now that she’s gone (she just left today afternoon), I can fully draw out the history of our friendship without embarrassing her. I don’t keep in touch with a lot of my high school friends. Some of [...]
