Daily David

Wednesday May 27, 2009

General Stuff Florida’s Tim Tebow routinely rejects all kinds of sex requests. We had dinner at The Bazaar on Saturday night. It was tragically expensive — and I’m not really a “foodie” — but I can appreciate art. The LA Times review is spot-on. I love these vintage sexist ads. Yes, you must pick one. [...]

Cynthia’s Restaurant 3

Sunday April 26, 2009

We had dinner last night at Cynthia’s Restaurant 3 (blog) on 3rd Street in Hollywood. (I am coming down the home stretch here of the Velocity Diet and get to have one HSM each day.) I have to tell you: If it wasn’t for my meal, I’d say this was a terrific place to eat. [...]

I completed Phase I of the Velocity Diet with my fifth shake on Sunday night. (I’ll write my review of Week Four soon.) I guess the guys at T-Nation are pretty good with their calculations, because I had barely enough Metabolic Drive shake mix to last me exactly through Phase I. By Monday morning I [...]

The Velocity Diet – Week Three

Wednesday April 15, 2009

This is day three of my fourth week on the Velocity Diet and at this point I am feeling pretty damn good about it. By this time next week I will be deep into Phase II of the program, during which I will get to consume a glorious healthy solid meal every single day. Right [...]

E. Baldi

Wednesday December 24, 2008

Just around the corner from Spago in Beverly Hills is a terrific little establishment named E. Baldi. (It’s the sister restaurant of just about the best place to eat in Los Angeles, Giorgio Baldi.) I had the amazing garganelle with meat sauce tonight, and didn’t realize until I was walking out the door that I [...]

An Evening in Savannah

Tuesday October 14, 2008

We took a trip to Savannah, Georgia last week. I had to visit Cleveland, GA on business on Monday and Tuesday, so after that we took a beautiful drive down to the city made famous by Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. One of the many highlights of our time there was a [...]

Visiting Atlanta

Monday October 13, 2008

Last Sunday we had lunch with the Tobers at Six Feet Under in Atlanta. I had a terrific fried catfish po’ boy and about six gallons of sweet tea. You just cannot get sweet tea in Los Angeles anywhere, so it was a treat. Then on Tuesday, before the presidential debate, we had dinner at [...]

Enough with Your Pancakes

Tuesday September 16, 2008

Every day a new city, a new IHOP. And yet every night the dreams get worse. I ply the highways, a nervous eye on the rear-view mirror, the back seat piled with stolen menus.

Rude Fortune

Friday August 1, 2008

A few weeks ago I wrote about how annoying it is to get an “affirmation cookie” instead of one with an actual fortune. Well at lunch today one of my co-workers got what we thought was a horribly rude fortune cookie. Instead of the usual mindless drivel, instead of even a useless affirmation, the “directive” [...]

Citizen Smith

Thursday July 24, 2008

My friends Bob and Gretchen were in town last night for the X-Files premiere at Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood. I met them afterwards and we went to Citizen Smith for a late dinner. (It took me just under an hour to get to the restaurant from my house, even though it’s only about eight [...]
