JONES CAFE (WEST HOLLYWOOD,4/16/10)

Teddy & I happened to be in West Hollywood today, so we stopped by Jones' Cafe for a quick bite. Normally i like to eat in the restaurant portion for the dark "Hollywood" ambience, but unfortunately that area was closed for lunch. So this was my first time eating in the cafe. I liked it because it definitely gave me the feel of a traditional italian cafe with red & white checkered tablecloths included. We started off with fried calamari rings for an appetizer, and let me tell you,those were the best i've ever tasted! Fresh, slightly chewy & lightly battered. I ordered a yummy chopped salad that was soo big, i took the rest to go :) Teddy ordered a spicy italian sausage pizza,which i didn't get to try, but he seemed to enjoy it.

PAZZAZ SUSHI (SILVERLAKE,4/4/10)

Hungry? it's raining? you're buried under the covers watching AMC?? PAZZAZ SUSHI TO THE RESCUE!!! :) Normally my loyalty lies with Sushi Ike (see my previous post),but desperate times call for desperate measures, and the selling point is: THIS PLACE DELIVERS! Teddy & i decided to go all out & order party platter "C" ($60). Not a bad deal! The food was fresh & the delivery was fast....we'll definitely call them again soon :)
