Life-long Bucketlist
So many places to go, so little time


ALFRED TEA ROOM - MELROSE, LA
Another one of those must-go places in LA. Alfred Team Room is a charming (and pink) small spot on Melrose. So when you want to go to...


EGGSLUT - DOWNTOWN, LA
Another icon of LA eats. This Eggslut is located in Grand Central Market in Downtown, and I think it's a nice place to grab lunch, minus...


FAR EAST JOINT - WEST COVINA, CA
Far East Joint is a Asian fusion restaurant (if the name didn't already give you some hint). They also have Korean-style friend chicken...


VOODOO DOUGHNUT - UNIVERSAL CITY, LA
There was news about this super hyped (and pink) doughnut shop from Portland opening in Studio City. And since I was going to Universal...

SPOTTING GIGI HADID @ THE GROVE, FAIRFAX

CAULDRON - IRVINE, CA
This has been the hype of Irvine since forever. Today I finally got to see what it's about. The line was kind of long on a Saturday...


IVORY ON SUNSET - WEST HOLLYWOOD, LA
We saw a deal on dineLA, three course lunch meal for $20 and an awesome view, I am in in! I booked through the dineLA website, but when I...


URBAN LIGHTS @ LACMA, MID-WILSHIRE
So my friend is visiting from Hong Kong. So of course I have to take her around. I brought her to see the Urban Lights exhibit in front...


LITTLE DAMAGE - DTLA, LA
For those who wants to try it, I would say don't bother. I was thinking how bad can an ice cream be, oh boy was I wrong. It's the first...


BEAUTY & ESSEX - HOLLYWOOD, LA
I've lived in NY for so many years yet I've never been to the original Beauty & Essex. Guess it was just meant to be it opened in LA now...


NEPTUNES RAW OYSTER & SEAFOOD BAR - ARTESIA, CA
I saw flying noodles and I wanted to try right away. But I ended up in disappointment. When we got there, they told us they run out of...


SNOW MONSTER - KTOWN, LA
One word: overrated. The cotton candy has no flavor, and the ice cream was just OK. I have had better. Their ice cream flavor wasn't that...
