Katana Robata and Sushi Bar

by Alyssa Ramos Katana is one of those restaurants that can be recommended without a doubt to newcomer’s, as well as as a go-to answer for the question, “Where do you want to eat?”. Boasting proudly from it’s second floor patio perch, above a double, slightly curving, stone staircase with a fountain at the base in the middle, Katana is hard to...

Wolfgang’s Steakhouse, Beverly Hills

by Alyssa Ramos It’s typically a given that any steakhouse in Beverly Hills is guaranteed to be divine, and Wolfgang’s Steakhouse was no exception. Although it was chosen because it was one of the only places available on Open Table the day after Valentine’s Day when my date and I decided that Santa Monica was too far to drive to, I’m always...

Villa Blanca, Beverly Hills

by Alyssa Ramos Villa Blanca is as prestigious, classy, and tasteful as the famed Beverly Hills roads it resides on. You may have caught a glimpse of it on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills since it’s owned by Real Housewife vixen Lisa Vanderpump and her adorably witty husband Ken Todd, but seeing it on screen merely does the place the justice it deserves...

Vinoteque on Melrose

Mari Vanna – A Piece of Russia in West Hollywood

  By Alyssa Ramos   Nestled in the trendy little triangular nook that is the real-life Melrose Place, is an ornately decorated and heavily vodka-infused piece of Russia called Mari Vanna. The name comes from a Slavic legend of a fairytale grandmother who welcomed hungry travelers for a home-cooked meal, and the same idea goes for it’s customers in...

Miley Cyrus Would Get a Naked Teddy Bear at DBA

This may shock and disappoint you but she was actually very calm and collected. By Alyssa Ramos Like everyone else on the planet, minus the supa freaks, extremists, and people who like things purposely because everyone else doesn’t, I too was appalled and even a little upset when the seemingly sweet and innocent Miley Cyrus hacked off her pretty Hannah Montana...

I Love the London and I Love LA.

Just wanted to throw out a quick mini blog while I blog. by Alyssa Ramos Thanks to global warming or whatever else I’m supposed to blame this beautiful 80 degree weather in LA in January on, today was decided to be Work By The Pool Day (by me). Usually these days take place every day during the summer time, but I guess since the weather is drunk and thinks...

Red Carpet Premier of “A Journey to Planet Sanity”

The journey never ends. by Alyssa Ramos I’ve been extremely lucky these past two years in LA. Not only have I traveled, found my career path, and made some incredible connections, but…no wait, my emphasis was going to be on my connections with people. I have a tendency to meet certain people one time, and form this crazy universal connection that makes us...
