I saw your group on Facebook, as well as your blog, and wanted to share that the famous Hamburger Hamlet's on Sunset Blvd just started a late night happy hour for Fri & Sat nights!
Hamburger Hamlet's on Sunset Blvd – 9201 Sunset Blvd
It's a classy, economical treat… at a historical Hollywood place where Sir Elton John had his last birthday, and the weekly spot for John Travolta, Dennis Quaid, Adam Sandler, Benji Madden, Paris Hilton, etc.
$1 drinks for ladies and happy hour prices for the men.
And a hip hop jazz vibe… Soon to bring in Piano Dueling to the Sunset Strip!
EVERY FRI & SAT!
RSVP with Hamlet at:
ashley@HamletRestaurants.com
I thought it would also be fun to host a singles mixer with you at Hamlet's. It's a really charming place with the old school vibe of red leather, live piano, and oak bar, right across from the BOA steakhouse… and valet is only $5!

What dating service do you use? How do you like it?
PS you don't need to publish this comment – an email would be great!

I'm not on any particular dating service now but I've been on quite a few; match, yahoo, nerve, thelek, etc. My friends like OK Cupid and Plenty of Fish both of which I have never used.

I just read your pico kosher crawl article and really enjoyed the pics you took. I'm creating a facebook fan page for Jeff's gourmet (www.facebook.com/jeffsgourmet) and am getting ready to do a photoshoot of the specials. I would like to know if you are interested in taking some pics in exchange for all you can eat on the specials. There's a lot more to Jeff's then sausages such as the Tunisian burger and the secret menu items. I hope you are interested! Please let me know. Best, Dani

Just read your review on Chin Go Gae and thank you for the wonderful comments. My mother is the owner and she's not really tech savvy so, on her behalf, I wanted to show appreciation. Though, I may not have good news for you…Chin Go Gae is in danger of closing its doors after almost 30 years of business. I wish that others could appreciate her yeumso tang which I think it's the best in L.A. (<—-totally biased of course). I hoping to get enough awareness to get customers back…

I'm the musician The Minty,
I contact you because lately I've been getting mails, invitations, and even plane tickets to my gmail account, which is really getting annoying.
I thought it was normal spam, until someday I replied someone who was sorry and told me she wanted to actually contact this site. I guess you may be missing out on a bunch of stuff, you know, people mistyping your mail…and mailing me!
So I really think it will be best for both of us if you could maybe put a direct link to your contact adress or just stress enough the dot com part ; ).
Will follow your dining advice when I'm in LA thought!
Bisous form Paris!

Hi Shauna — Gerry here from StarKing and Bombay Cafe. Thank you so much for coming out on Sunday! It was good to see you, (and also to know about the TV show — just the thing Jackie would need to be nudged into doing but really no chef at SK)
Could I have your email so I can send you pics and a fact sheer from Bombay Cafe?
