I Should Be Sleeping Right Now
Last night, Nicole, Lori, and I attended the Media Bistro/Blogging.la party at Bar Lubitsch. I was excited to finally check out the place, as I’d heard so many rave reviews of it, and it’s close to my apartment. The bar was really cool, had lots of seating, and a huge room in the back. I’ll definitely be visiting again.
Because the place was so damn crowded (and loud), it was hard to walk around a lot, but I did get a chance to talk (or scream) with people I already knew–Marissa, Esther (yep, she’s in town!), Melanie, Joel, and Jay (whom I haven’t seen in forever and a half.) I also met some people I felt like I already knew–Will and Nina. And, I was beyond excited to meet two bloggers I just adore–Lesley of Eater LA and Jessica of Ultratart. I also met a few Media Bistro and LAist people as well. (Sorry, I’m horrible with names.)
After a few rounds, we decided it was time to put something in our bellies so we headed over to The Village Idiot for dinner and more drinks (seriously, I’m paying the price today). Thanks to Nicole knowing the sous chef from way back when, we also enjoyed some amazing desserts–a pear crisp (?) with vanilla ice cream and an enormous chocolate chip cookie with mint chocolate chip ice cream. Yum!
I do believe a fun night was had by all.
