Downtown Dining: LudoBites 5.0

Downtown Dining: LudoBites 5.0

I did it. I scored the golden ressie to LudoBites at Gram & Papas last week. Of course my reservation for dinner was after almost narrowly missing a deadline on previously mentioned big and secret project, and I couldn’t eat half the things on the menu (no red meat for me, and it seems the...

Type Life

I just got back from the opening night of TypeCon, a conference on yes, type, which is taking place here in L.A. this year. It featured an hour-long documentary on a man who made and cut letters for a living, from sketching them out on paper to carving them in miniature form on metal blocks,...

Downtown Discovery: World of Color

Downtown Discovery: World of Color
