LOCALE Magazine

For LOCALE’s February 2019 issue, I wrote a “palate passport” to the top sushi, pizza, and Mexican restaurants in Los Angeles.

“Cannoli imagine one more slice, please. Who says NY has the only good pizza in America? Not us. Vito’s Pizza hits a high note that so many others just can’t reach. Skip the red sauce and go for The Sophia Loren with caramelized onions, goat cheese, arugula and pine nuts. Yum!”

LOCALE Magazine

I wrote the cover story for the February 2019 issue of LOCALE Magazine on celebrity Nicole Ari Parker. The story also included a “Making the Issue” feature.

“Soon, Parker’s breakout role sparked the first flames of the fire she’s known for today. And, the heat is rising. Parker’s character, Giselle Barker, in the hit TV drama “Empire,” came on in the fourth season as Eddie Barker’s (Forest Whitaker) ex-wife. Parker said, “I got a call saying, ‘Do you want to play Forest Whitaker’s ex-wife on “Empire?”’ I said, absolutely. It was a hit show and an Oscar winner in one phone call.” Soon after, the writers decided to make Giselle a recurring character on the show for the fifth season.”

The Argonaut

Santa Monica College students and faculty offered free family portraits to survivors of the Woolsey Fire. I covered the story for The Argonaut and spoke with families affected.

“Bruce Bates said it took some time for the reality to set in that they had no place to stay, no change of clothes — not even a toothbrush. But family, friends and community members quickly rallied around them with help and support.”

Locale Magazine

I wrote a roundup of boutique hotels for Locale Magazine’s Escape section.

“It might not be the 1950s anymore, but don’t let that stop you from posing poolside and pretending you’re taking a Slim Aarons photo. Bring your own Rat Pack along for the trip, or enjoy the ambiance entirely solo.”

LOCALE Magazine

For LOCALE’s Greater Palm Springs edition, I wrote a listicle featuring 11 Palm Springs restaurants offering Thanksgiving dinner specials.

“The only meal prep you’ll need this Thanksgiving is making sure your stomach is empty ahead of time. With these tantalizing specialty menu offerings made exclusively for Thanksgiving Day, you won’t need a fire extinguisher at the ready in the kitchen this year. Most pilgrims would agree, avoiding a major kitchen meltdown is more than enough to be grateful for. Pass the cranberries—and the hibiscus sangria, please.”

The Argonaut

Article covering Santa Monica Restaurant Week, January 7-13, 2019. Appeared online and in print.

“European charm and romance radiates from French, Italian and Spanish influences at the new Marseille-inspired restaurant. The chef’s crunchy kale and persimmon salad features shaved fennel and toasted sunflower seeds tossed with a Comté and Jerez vinaigrette. Add on smoked salmon for irresistibly fresh texture.”
