THE GLAM LIFE: A FOODIES CORNER
LIVE TO EAT!!
I’m always super hyped when I find a great restaurant, lounge or bar that’s easy on my six year Louis Vuiton Joey wallet. Yes, I said six years, but when you pay for quality it’s built to last. Actually, it was gifted to me by a past suitor, but who’s bragging? Certainly not me, that’s so not my style, but the fact that its Louis V means that it will always be in heavy style rotation, right?! “Fashion fades, style is eternal.” What?! I didn't say it, YSL did. Ha!

So, back to the topic at hand, I can’t really take all of the credit for this gem of a find (thanks to my lovely friend Coco, boho-chic fashionista and foodie), but I can share by spreading the word.
About a week ago, a girlfriend of mine and I caught up in Oldtown/Downtown
Pasadena (cute little suburbanite city right outside of LA) at a place called Equator Café. It’s an eclectic hodgepodge of Asian, French
and Gothic Bordeaux all fused into one.
The eats are delish, mostly consisting of an infused Asian cuisine with tidbits
of American fare tucked in here and there.
We shared the Chicken Sate ($1 - might I add), Seaweed Salad, and for all the cheese lovers out there, blue cheese fresh cut French fries – to die for, literally!! The fries are A-MA-ZING!! It was like a blue cheese gravy river spread all over the fries. Heaven in your mouth! Plus, they have the normal entrees to choose from as well.
As for libations, they have a pretty good selection of mouth watering martinis, creative cocktails, a solid beer selection, all types of wines and trendy specialty drinks. Not to mention, great happy hour selections, like $1 Tuesday Martinis and $3 cocktails and apps on Thursday.
It's a very chill vibe during the week, with a DJ spinning on certain days, so I’m sure it gets super crowded at those times.
Definitely somewhere worth checking out, especially if in this neck of the woods! Be inspired to try new things and different places...
