Taste on Melrose

Photos are from Ilovetaste website
This is my first restaurant, eatery, bistro, cafe, etc. review & certainly not my last. Went to Taste w/ my co-workers. It's located in WeHo right on Melrose. It's a small place but certainly big in delivering fine food. I ordered pork chops w/ some pasta. I thought it was ok. Certainly could have used more "taste" but I was certainly able to taste the quality in my dish. Thankfully my co-workers decided to order some desert & were willing to share. I think it was either the ice cream sandwich or the chocolate decadence that I tried. Whichever it was it was amazingly good. Every time I put some of that chocolate in my mouth it was heaven. Taste, I think, would be a nice place to go w/ good friends, someone visiting from out of town or your girlfriend. Not many tables on the inside but no worries as there are also tables on the outside. Its got a very cozy feel to it along w/ the sophistication you would want in a restaurant. Even though I'm not a big drinker I think I had 3 glasses of red wine that night. I hope to go back soon. Maybe I'll go for lunch or something to see how their lunch menu is. I'm sure it's just as tasty as their dinner menu. As far as prices go it's certainly not cheap but not too expensive either. I'm a big believer that you get what you pay & at taste you certainly get your moneys worth. Fortunately, I was treated that night so didn't really get to see what the total was as it was 6 of us that night. Lastly, as far as service goes I would give it an A as our waitress was extremely courteous & very pleasant. Give Taste a taste as I'm sure your taste buds will thank you.

Leather Goody

A couple of months ago I purchased some leather driving gloves. The only reason I wanted to buy them was because I didn't own a pair of any type of gloves so I decided to give it a go on some BMW driving gloves. To my surprise it has been a delight using them almost every time I drive. Although I would have preferred faux leather, because I don't like the fact that leather comes from animals, the gloves feel very nice when I put them on. Their size is small & they fit me perfectly. It's a soft leather w/ a small BMW logo on each one of them. If you're like me & love to really grip the road then you can't go wrong w/ some driving gloves like these. They cost me $40 at a BMW specialist shop.

I just had to post this poster/pic of the upcoming film Tron 2. Pure awesomeness.

D & G

If I were succumbed w/ a huge load of cash I would give some to charity, poor individual people out in the streets, my family & to places in the world where poverty is overwhelmingly high. I would probably also buy a couple of sporty cars, a decent condo, & lastly fill my wardrobe of Dolce & Gabbana. From shirts to shoes, all the way to suites. D&G has become a favorite of mine ever since I came across this incredible leather jacket I saw a few years ago while browsing my monthly subscription of GQ magazine. To me D&G really represents great style whether it be jeans or a shirt. If it's got a D&G tag then chances are it will have great cool modern style. Although I don't actually own anything D&G I still am a huge fan of the brand & who knows maybe that huge "wad" of cash is just waiting for me somewhere. For now though I will keep admiring the clothing line through photos in prints. Below are a few items from their site at the current moment. ALL ON SALE!!!
