Oh dayummm, y'all. Sometimes I find excuses to go to Dupont, just so I can hit up Live. Actually, my latest excuse to go to Dupont is just "hit up Live". It's divine.

I love their big salad bowl, I love their juices and smoothies and refreshing…More »

But the other guy was…More »

Recently updated lists from Wendy H.

El Hayyy (4)

I like, go to Los Angeles a lot. Not enough to pick "The Best", but enough to start rounding up my reviews.

Kensington is for Lovers (and Hippies) (6)

I spend a lot of time in Kensington, yo.

OK Fine, Maybe College Street Is Better (8)

I moved to College St, and I love it even more than the gaybourhood. These are places I can reach within 20 minutes of walking from my lair.

Why Living In The Village Is The Best (10)

I'm convinced that the gaybourhood is probably the best place to live in this city. The tiny strip on Church between Wellesley and Alexander is enough to make you feel like you're at home in a small town. The scene is always bustling, lively and friendly; there's no shortage of interesting sights AND everything you need is within a 10 minute walking distance.
