Quebec Makes a Mark in Hollywood
This fall, 65 artists and designers from the Canadian province of Quebec came to Los Angeles to present a unique program that would highlight their strength, innovation, and creativity. Events throughout the month included a film festival at the Egyptian Theatre, live music, a stand-up comedy evening, a fashion show at the Hollywood & Highland [...]
Katsuya Bathroom Mirrors: Halloween Trick?
Last night, I thought I was losing my mind. Literally, I thought, “it’s official. I have gone crazy!” I have an active imagination, but this was something else. It was my “baby” brother’s birthday. His choice for dinner was Katsuya in Brentwood. I was already exhausted from a full day of work and stress and [...]
Metropolitan Cooking & Entertaining Show to Serve Up Celebrity Chefs
If you’ve been reading the Punch for awhile, then you are quite familiar with my non-talents in the kitchen, even though I have some sick fascination with watching the Food Network and am a bit obsessed with chefs of local, national and international regard and fame. Perhaps it’s what we don’t have that makes our [...]
The Lore and Lure of Wales : Day 1
Wales? What? Why? I first found out that I could be going to Wales in August while residing in my temporary home in the Pacific Punch. Lindsay, who writes as often as she can for JohnnyJet about her numerous global treks, received an invite for a Great Wales Challenge : Blogger’s Press Trip being put [...]
The Rape Foundation’s Annual Brunch Hosted by “Mad Men” Cast in Beverly Hills
By Pacific Punch Correspondent Liesl Jackson On September the 25th I attended The Rape Foundation Annual Brunch in Beverly Hills. The event took place at billionaire Ronald Burkle’s mansion. As I valeted my 2000 Saturn Sedan behind a Mercedes and a BMW, and stepped up to the gates in my $30 dress I bought at [...]
Days 25 – 31 in the Pacific Punch
I hate having unfinished projects staring me in the face (don’t judge this on my apartment, I like to think of that as a “work in progress with multiple simultaneous projects happening” aka a nightmare). Don’t get me wrong, there are more loose threads in my life than a sweater attacked by a kitten, but [...]
Here, There and Everywhere, but HERE in D.C. This Week
I’m not gonna lie. Traveling non-stop (I come home to do laundry, dust and look at a two-foot stack of mail), building and managing teams and businesses on two coasts, writing something you’d want to read, editing, publishing, attending events, finding advertisers, doing media spots, working with partners, holding leadership positions on multiple boards, planning [...]
Raisa Ruder Gives a Facial Good Enough to Eat
By Lindsay Taub of the Pacific Punch I’ve had plenty of facials in my day. In LA, it’s not uncommon to get referrals to estheticians who work out of their home or rent a room in a salon. In fact, those are the most coveted appointments, as these are the ones who don’t need a [...]
Days #21, #22, #23 & #24 in the Pacific Punch
In my haste, one place I forgot to mention where I’d eaten during my restaurant tour de force is Casa Vega. How I first became familiar with this dark Mexican (literally dark-so dark it takes about 10 minutes until your eyes adjust from the sunny outdoors to the pitch black inside) “old-school” restaurant right on [...]
Days #13 & #14 in the Pacific Punch
After a full day and night’s recovery (that being Friday) we decided to have dinner at home on Saturday evening after running some errands and taking a long walk to sweat out some of Thursday’s toxins. As I mentioned before, Lindsay is for all intents and purposes, an amateur chef who should have her own [...]
Day #10 in the Pacific Punch
On day #10 of my stay in L.A., I joined Lindsay and her mom for lunch at a darling little restaurant in Sherman Oaks called Sweet Butter. At this outdoor-seating-only kitchen, cafe and marketplace, they proudly serve the freshest ingredients and use herbs from their patio garden which you can walk through as you enter [...]
