Who doesn’t love to look at images of food and be tempted and swayed to give it a try ? I’m sure as hell guilty when it comes to delectable delights. So if you’re within California, I’d like to share you my food for thought =). Recently for dinner, my bf decided we’d have a romantic date night and suggested we goto LA for dinner at The Colori Kitchen and I’m really glad that he chose this place for dinner because I left completely satisfied in awe with my dinner. We arrived here at around 7:30 pm on a Friday night with very few seats left in the house we got lucky and were seated promptly. A very small restaurant in a VERY hidden location so be on the lookout. Also, parking on the streets are very limited but be reassured that there is lot parking that only costs $3-$4. As we were seated we were given menu’s and inside there went along with there specials for the night, drinks were immediately taken and brought out. I do apologize for the photos as they were taken on my blackberry =).
Started off with there Special of the night.
Fresh Burrata Cheese with Heirloom Tomatoes & Mixed Greens
This dish was done perfect, the burrata cheese was so fresh and you could tell by how soft, warm, & delicate the texture was. I was impressed by how smooth the burrata was as well. Heirloom tomatoes hidden underneath the cheese, I was a little saddened by how small the slices were but it’s okay, drizzled with extra virgin olive oil, salt, & pepper. Slithers of basil complimented the dish, all of the flavors paired very well together.
*Special of the Night*
Spinach Gnocchi with bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, & ricotta in a red sauce.
I can’t express to you how well this dish was done. My bf happened to order this as I literally took the plate from him & switched it with my dish. Gnocchi is very hard to make and can be overly done to give you a very starchy consistency. The gnocchi here at Color was light and delicate, as the bacon gave it that salty bite with an earthy flare from the mushrooms. I’m glad the onion gave it some texture as the tomatoes happened to be roasted to perfection. Finished with melted ricotta on top just made my mouth melt. I hope if you give Colori a chance that they have this item on there menu because it was to die for !
Spaghetti Carbonara, al dente spaghetti with a rich carbonara sauce and best of all, bacon everywhere ! This dish is great, but I think it was more of a dish my bf’s would order, and for dinner, we happened to switch plates for the first time ever rather than sharing and eating off one anothers plate. I know carbonara is a very rich sauce since it’s main ingredient happens to be butter, cream, & egg yolks. Done very well with perfectly cooked pasta.
Italian Style Cheesecake
Our waiter asked us once we finished up our dinner if we’d ever tried there cheesecake, I actually responded with no since I’m not really a fan of it, besides cheesecake factory’s vanilla bean, BUT I have to stick it in the freezer for a bit cause once it’s frozen, it taste just like a smooth, rich, & creamy ice cream ! Okay but back to Colori kitchen’s cheesecake, he told us that this was there special cheesecake that everyone infamously loves so my bf and I decided to give it a try although I was in a creme brulee mood. Baked with ricotta the cheesecake was quite delicious, although for me it started to become very rich afterwards, topped with powdered sugar, drizzled with raspberry and an anglaise I believe. Without your typical graham cracker crust it reminder me of a baked pound cake on the outside texture. Personally for me I think this dish would be perfect with that a little refreshment factor, it was just missing something.
Overall experience was great, the restaurant lived up to it’s hype and my tummy was expanded to the point where I was glad I decided to wear some leggings that night. The restaurant because extremely busy and lines were just out the door and I completely understand why not. Authentic Italian food at it’s best, unfortunately I do think they need some more staff since at times they were a little behind, but all the workers besides bus boys seemed to speak the language so I guess they just need that perfect person with a touch. Will be back here sometime to give furthermore reviews, I hope you guys enjoy this new chapter !

I have been blogging since 2007. For years I made a few bucks here and there with Adsense and some affiliate sells, but I wasn’t making enough to quit the day job for sure. I tried getting traffic from Adwords, SEO, Yahoo, article marketing, social sites, and even email. The problem was that I just couldn’t get enough traffic to really make anything. Then I found out about a new way to buy traffic for so freaking cheap that it was nuts. I could then send that cheap traffic (for pennies!) to my blogs, get enough sales to realize a 1000% return on my investment, and suddenly my life was changed. I’m banking $300+ on a bad day now, and the future is looking way better. If you’re sick and tired of only getting a handful of visitors to your blog, check this site out. I’m not some stupid foreigner trying to sell crap on DP. This is LEGIT! You will go from a few dozen visitors a day to thousands! —> Blog Traffic Secret

Boot Tip: If you remember nothing else: Be seasonally consistent when putting an outfit together. Do not wear boots and a skirt with bare legs; tights, nylons, or even flesh colored fishnet stockings help bridge the (thermal & fashion) gap between your knees and your hemline.
