From their city plates collection to their modern highball sets, notNeutral continues to be one of the best places in Los Angeles to buy housewares and gifts. Last year their Melrose store relocated to Larchmont and this holiday season they are opening a pop up store on Beverly Drive.

The weather outside is frightful, but here inside Nate 'n Al it's toasty and warm. The waitress treats you like she's your mom, chiding you if you don't eat enough soup. Nothing takes the chill off like a big, hot bowl of Mish Mash soup (pronounced by most people as "mish mosh"). Matzoh ball soup is usually considered to be the ultimate comfort food, but in this soup you get the best of everything - a big, fluffy, perfectly cooked matzoh ball, a soft Kreplach dumpling with a bland filling that yields easily to the bite, plus kasha, rice and barley. Mish Mosh was made for those winter days when you are under the weather. Nothing too spicy, nothing too challenging, and the soft carbohydrates require hardly any chewing. After all, we wouldn't want you to strain yourself, would we? Now eat!

LAist watched the Season 4 premiere of Project Runway with Santino Rice and chatted with Rami Kashou about dressing celebrities. Next Tuesday Heidi Klum will bring the glow of the beautiful Project Runway world to The Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills. Will the uber German supermodel say her famous catch phrase 'in fashion one day you are in and the next day you are out'? Will she wear a dress designed by...

What happens when you take a jazz influenced visual artist and team him up with a group that transforms unoccupied storefronts and spaces into temporary art galleries and give them a large empty, ground-floor lobby of a former bank building in Beverly Hills? You get another amazing experience under the umbrella of Farmlab, which is a think tank, art production studio, and cultural performance venue doing multi-disciplinary investigations of land use issues that are...

Winding up his colorful trilogy of outrageously beautiful volumes of photographs, famed artist David LaChapelle will be signing "Heaven and Hell" tonight at the Taschen Store in Beverly Hills. In a series that started a decade ago with "LaChapelle Land" and improved with "Hotel LaChapelle" (1999), David wraps it up with a collection of images that contains nearly double the number of the previous two volumes. LaChapelle, known for his eye-popping color and over-the-top...

that this weekend is packed with all sorts of activities:

Well, the Solstice has come and gone, which means our days our longer, and our nights are longer, too, somehow. This weekend there is no shortage of fun things to do, and no excuse for us to not get out there and do them. That is, unless, you are one of the lucky few with an ocean breeze or a good air conditioning system to keep you coolly behind your doors--this weekend's forecast is for temperatures in the mid to upper 70s.

Inside was surprisingly cavernous, like a barn, we surmised--how apropos! After having restauranted meal after meal recently together in New York, my dining companion and I couldn't help but remark on how large LA restaurants tend to be. And, as a bonus, staffed with male servers who obviously do a little acting on the side. We were seated promptly, and with a smile, and we set out to the business of ordering. Our kind and friendly waiter explained the many specials, and we perked up at the Asian Seafood Salad description. Our server, in his infinite attentiveness, even went so far as to ask if the chef could make an intricate alteration for us (South Beach is a killer, isn't it?). Even though the answer was no, we were impressed that he asked, and even more impressed when our meals came out quickly from said chef's lair. Our companion had what she called a glorified BLT on grainy bread, with flavorful Applewood smoked bacon and a house salad that had her gushing over its dressing. We were thrilled with the Asian Seafood Salad, with its spicy flavors and variety of bits and chunks of tasty fish and shellfish, none too overwhelmed by dressing in the least. We ogled the brownies and other sweet treats being served up nearby (double duty with ogling the wait staff), but we stayed good and kept away from the goodies (in all respects). We had a nice experience down on The Farm, and we're glad we have a slightly more subtle eating option at the beloved Grove.

LAist has noticed lately that periodically out-of-work actors are now exponentially out-of-work actors who sit around complaining that their soon-to-be out of work agents and already out-of-work managers aren't getting them the million-dollar reality-TV auditions they think they're perfect for.
