Always looking for a place to grab some good pizza to take home, and at all cost avoid those mass-produced joints — not easy.  But I found Pizza Per Tutti,  owned and operated by Marcello. He is in the kitchen making pizza, salads, and sandwiches.  I ordered a Vegetarian Pizza and the […]

After a rather hectic day of bullshit, I ended with a great dinner at the Bel-Air Bar & Grill with my good friend, Michael Trope,  of the legal firm of Trope & DeCarolis.  Over the years, I and I am sure hundreds of you have driven right by the place.  Michael has […]

Nothing and I mean nothing is as good as good food, great music and even greater company and how tough is it to get all that together.  Well that is just what I did the other night right here in Los Angeles at the Cicada Club.  My son Mike and I were […]

Paradise Cove Beach Cafe, Malibu, California…I had decided to meet some friends at this Tourist Trap.  When my son and I arrived the parking lot was not as full as it often is as it was early.  I walk in and see my friends sitting in the worst booth in the place….there were lots of […]

The Ivy restaurant is always a great place to eat, I love a late breakfast or a nice late lunch there…one thing for sure you will never be disappointed.  I was invited by one of my former clients who became a friend over the years.   Elizabeth never does anything half-ass…trust me. Having lunch is fun, […]

The economy is in the crapper you say? Well last night I had dinner at Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Winebar in El Segundo and the place was full of victims, oops I mean customers, and I and two guests were there, too.  Our waitress started with that bullshit line, “would you like a bottle of […]

Deciding to go out for Indian cuisine the other night, my two boys and I chose a spot new to us and fairly new to the neighborhood, 818-Masala located in North Hollywood.  You will remember the horrible food and experience at Curry Land (aka Da Shits!)…so I was a little hesitant, and then like a […]

Well let it not be said that I am not a man about town.  My son Mikee and I were invited to have lunch at a restaurant in West Hollywood called Panini on Sunset.  As soon as we walked in we were greeted by Anita, she owns the place and she acted like she really […]

Many of you have been asking for more thoughts on eating out.  First, nothing beats a home-cooked meal, nothing!  My pal Mark’s mom makes everything from scratch and Octavio’s  mom, oh, Mexican food to die for, and that would be just about as good as it gets (except for when I cook), those are some […]

Earlier today I was talking to my friend Bonny Stern; she thought that it would be nice to visit Vitello’s Italian Restaurant, which caught me by surprise as she is someone who loves good restaurants…maybe things have changed for the better?   I drove into the parking lot this evening to have dinner with the star […]

 
After my disastrous stay at the Montage in Laguna Beach, I decided to review the places that I stay in the course of my doing business as a “high flying” private investigator…hope my readers enjoy my take on what these places are all about, my way!  Note: The Montage has invited us back for a […]

The Four Seasons Resort at Punta Mita is everything the Montage could only wish for! Man what a recovery, “Da Monster” and then I find what can only be described as true paradise…and ocean breezes!
Two of my very favorite clients wanted me to accompany them on a trip to Mexico (security issues and […]

We don’t ordinarily do hotel reviews here at Desperate Exes, but I consider this a public service announcement! To all of my friends and fans in LA, BEWARE: a disaster of a hotel is coming to Beverly Hills and it is called “The Montage,” aka “Da Monster!” These people cannot get […]
