Premier food & lifestyle collaborative
Don’t deny it: you go through at least one case of La Croix each week, but if you’re really being honest with yourself, it’s more like two or three. And everyone you know has their go-to flavor about which they are way more passionate than they should be. You’ve seen relationships […]
This past weekend I decided to take a trip down to the National Harbor for dinner. The Old Hickory Steakhouse has a new February menu and they wanted us to preview the new dishes and wine pairings. As a DC local, I have sadly not spent much time in the National […]
A half a year after this trend hit social media, I thought it was time I sample a Raindrop Cake. Thanks to Goldbely, you can now order crazy things like this and have them shipped directly to your door. The only thing different about this food is you have to assemble […]
Now maybe I’m being a diva, but I am getting so sick of bottomless brunches with horrible quality food. If I’m going to eat out, I don’t want it to be an absolute waste of my money. So let’s make a pact to eat GOOD brunches from now on, ok? […]
The 22nd Annual Critics’ Choice Awards were this weekend and the blue carpet was full of fashion. The big winner of the night was the new musical La La Land, but not all of the style choices were as successful. Here is a look at the biggest hits and misses of the […]
I’m going to keep this short simple: VIRGINIA IS NOT THAT FAR AWAY. Hop in an uber, grab a car, or metro across the river (heck you can even bike), and you will expand your dining options ten-fold…And then you will be disappointed that you didn’t do it sooner. Of […]
The American Music Awards were on television last week and the red carpet fashion did not disappoint. Now, the AMA’s are not exactly the Grammy’s but they are an easy indication of whether you are seriously out of touch with Pop music (who were half of these people?). This year […]
from the archives… The first Thanksgiving I can really remember was typically anticlimactic. My dad had to work, his girlfriend was on a diet where carbs were declared the anti-Christ, and I had just lost my Gameboy privileges for neglecting to feed my goldfish (RIP Gilbert). After a day spent […]
From the archives… Joining many great food debates such as; chili with beans or no beans, and tomato based or vinegar based BBQ sauce, the Thanksgiving rivalry between “stuffing” and “dressing” likely continues in your household. Depending on the regional composition of guests, they are likely to lean one way […]
Many parents say to their children, “you can be whatever you want to be when you grow up” (And no, I am not trying to start some political reference, but just go with it). Well if Erik Bruner-Yang (chef and restauratuer) is the parent, then Maketto is the child. Maketto is […]
Fashion Month has officially ended for the Spring/Summer 2017 collections, but my recap of the runways is still strutting. We started our journey in New York City, then we conquered London, but before we culminate in iconic Paris, I am here to highlight Milan Fashion Week. Milan is essentially known as […]
Sally’s Middle Name was nothing like I expected. Not because I had low expectations, but because it blew me out of the water. Seriously, every aspect of my evening was so thoughtful and creative. From the drinks to dinner to dessert to the service, it was exceptional. Why did I […]
