Cooking (and restaurants)

So I've kinda been ignoring the foodie aspect of my blog...

I blame it on school and my constant exhaustion.  Well, I'm not constantly exhausted, but when dinner time comes around I'd much rather go to a restaurant I've been meaning to try than go to the supermarket and search for ingredients.  AND when I'm at a restaurant, I'm so excited about food, I forget to take pictures!

Things I plan on cooking/baking in the NEAR future (and posting):
  • Cheddar dill scones.
  • If those are a success, some sort of sweet scone.
  • Barbacoa beef - If you love Chipotle, you will love me and my recipe! + homemade corn salsa + homemade guacamole + cilantro-lime rice.  I go all out when I make my barbacoa :)
  • Lemon bars.
  • Green bean risotto - I've alluded to it in the past, but have never made a post about it.
  • Baby back ribs.
  • Have yet to find a recipe for it, but hollandaise sauce for my favorite: eggs benedict.
Places I plan on going to and reviewing on here + Yelp:
  • Julienne in San Marino
  • Pizzeria Mozza and/or Ice Pan in WeHo
  • Blu Jam Cafe in WeHo/LA
  • Umami Burger (YES, I'm late with that... but come on, who wants to deal with parking and driving over there?)
  • BLD
  • Alcove Bakery/Cafe
  • and ANY tea room!  I'm trying to find the best in LA :)  Already tried the Huntington Garden tea room, and it's just "eh."
