Chelo Kabob, Shah’s of Sunset Style

Dude, who brings a freakin tiger to their party??  The Shah’s of Sunset, that’s who.  You may recall this from the episode where Sammy throws a party at his crib.  This was the closest I’ve ever come to standing next to a tiger…and I was pretty scared that any minute now the tiger’s gonna get evoked and break through its cage.  But aside from the tiger…the decor and food were both noteworthy.  Catering was done by Beverly Hills Market.  Presentation was done right.  Of course they had to go with Persian food. Besides the kabob’s, I also loved the appetizers.  Overall I thought they were very professional. As far as the party goes, the food was good, the music was good, the view was awesome, the drinks were flowing, the tiger entertained…duhhh what more can a girl want?

How amazing does this look?

Nellie’s 6th Annual Christmas Party!

I usually make this one a pajama party, but this year I felt like doing something a little bit more elegant and a lil less “comfy”.  I think the biggest hits of the night were my apple-cinnamon vodka drink and succulent beef roast.  Here are some pictures from the night.

For my friend Marissa’s birthday, a group of about 15 of us went to Ago for dinner.  Before going I did a little research and found that it is partly owned by Robert DeNiro and named after its executive chef partner Agostino Sciandri.  The restaurant had a very serene and romantic ambiance, which would make it great for a date, and yet there were so many groups of 5 or more.  Definitely very upscale and fancy.  I was also impressed by all the waiters speaking Italian to one another, and even more impressed by the food.

Insalata di Campo

My favorite of the evening has to go to the homemade meat Lasagna.  Lasagna is no easy task andnot something easily made at home on a regular basis so I usually like to order this when I go out.  Not to mention, I do love to eat hearty meals.  I have to say I was thoroughly impressed.  The sauce was fantastic and especially went well with their freshly baked bread.  Ever since I went to Italy I’ve been obsessed with Italian bread but it is so hard to find authentic Italian bread here in California.  I recommend this dish because it is delicious and really filling too.

House Desserts $10

If trying to choose between one, I’d go with the Chocolate Souffle. You could really taste the chocolate but it was so light and not too sweet, just the way I like it

Happy Birthday Marissa!
