A Luxxe Drink
Going to work in Los Angeles can be hectic. Known for its infamous traffic, one day I can be super early to work or barely making it on time. Traffic in LA is pretty random so I like to leave an hour early and spend some time at a nearby lounge where coffee and a reading spot are accessible.
Usually I hit Starbucks, but I found this new spot called Caffe Luxxe, a quiet little place where if you drive by you will surely miss it. So, I ordered a prosciutto sandwich and their most popular drink: A cappuccino with a rosetta. The rosetta is the milk foam art, usually the barista's "signature". Check out their website for other designs. Mine was a heart. Too precious! Though, this happiness does come at a price. Sadly, these visits will be kept at a minimum.
Know any lounge spots that I would like?? Please let me know!
J Lounge in Downtown LA
w/the B-day girl!
Friday night Erica and I headed out to celebrate a good friend's 21st birthday at the sexy and sleek J Lounge!
The Lounge is great for those who want to have fun, but want to avoid a hectic sweaty club scene. It has two different levels of partying. The top level is a fun club seen with an amazing dance floor. It's decorated with great couches, amazing light designs and big screen TV's. The second level, which is my favorite, is a patio area with the an outstanding view overlooking L.A. They have open cabaannas for everyone and a giant projector! The patio is connected to a great restaurant, with fantastic food. Everyone this place gets an absolute A+! Check it out with some friends for a good time!

Sushi lover? Then read on...
Ever since I left San Marcos, I'm always on the search for a new sushi spot in Los Angeles. Requirements
include cheap, but delicious all wrapped up in a cute place. Lo and behold, I think I may have found 2 spots to die for!
First up is the famous Katsuya. Yeah I know what you're thinking, "what, Katsuya is definitely not cheap" but I'm talking about their Happy Hour. While portions can be small, they are melt in your mouth status. The Happy Hour menu takes place weekdays from 5-7PM at the bar. So, you ask "What do I order?" Well for food, musts are the crispy rice and rock shrimp tempura roll. And for drinks, the watermelon cucumber refresher is simply amazing. Also, their most popular drink is the Burning Mandarin. Sadly, it isn't on the happy hour menu so girls... this is your time to flirt with the bartender and make it happy hour price!
Hungry yet? I bet. On to numero dos. This sushi spot not only has the Happy Hour Menu, but features the menu everyday from 12-9:30PM! The place is Crazy, Rock'N Sushi and located on Santa Monica Blvd in West Hollywood. Massive amounts of deliciousness was ordered and the bill was dirt cheap.
P.S. Both Places passed the test for yummy mochi as well. Vanilla is my favorite!


Now I ask, what are your favorite sushi places?
