Three Things

My (favorite) latest apps:
  1. Venmo - Like their website points out, it's like your smartphone and wallet had a beautiful baby. This free app makes it incredibly easy (and secure and quick) to settle split bills between friends.


  2. Tiny Review - Developed to be a platform to "caption the world" and post succinct photo reviews linked to locations. My initial reaction was moreso "Great! Easy instagram-like memes." I foresee much random fun to be had and wit to be spread via this app.


  3. HeyTell - Who wouldn't want to turn their smartphone into a walkie-talkie?

Food Love

Round I: Tofu popcorn

Round II: Baos (Grilled tofu and panko fish in white, wheat & bibb lettuce options)

Round IIIa: Salted caramel macaron ice cream sandwich (from one of my LA favorites, Milk)

Round IIIb: Banana nutella bao

Katie and I checked out Take a Bao's Studio City location on Friday and indulged in a variety of their offerings as you can see from the photos above. We also got comped a napa salad (thank you to whoever in the kitchen accidentally made it) - which was also just as delicious, fresh and perfect component to our al fresco lunch on a warm sunny afternoon.

Food Love

Pasteis de nata. Carne de Porco à Alentejana. Oh, it's been far too long since my Lisbon trip and all the yummy Portuguese food. I'll have to make my way towards Sherman Oaks more often.
Muito obrigado, Natas Pastries!
