Eat: LA on Offramp; L.A. Observed re-designs

Colleen Dunn Bates, the tireless editor and publisher of the Eat: Los Angeles guidebook taped a segment with John Rabe for KPCC's Offramp today, talking about the psychology of dining out, finding hidden treasures and much more. The interview will run on Saturday's Offramp, but an even longer version is already available streaming on the KPCC website.

And in other media news, L.A. media site L.A. Observed unveiled a long-awaited re-design with tons of good links, including an entire food links category -- thanks for the link, Kevin! You might discover some new blogs on there -- I know I was happy to find Hollywood Gastronomical Haunts, about long-gone eateries, and I also wasn't that familiar with Tasty L.A., a singles dining service. The list of sites in the L.A. as Subject category is also extremely comprehensive, so if you're looking for some new ways to procrastinate, that's a great place to start.

LA observed definitely has some links worth looking into.

There's always so much to discover in LA. I'm always amazed by how many hidden (or not so hidden) spots there are that I've never heard of. Thanks for the links!

Hollywood Gastronomical Haunts quickly became my favorite LA food site... uhh I mean.. second to Eating LA, of course.
