A "Magnum Crew" Pop Up To Take Place At Biergarten (Koreatown; December 13 and 14)

I know I've been doing nothing but anticipatory posts these last couple of weeks but you guys will have to excus me as I am in the process of becoming legit! Ha, ha. Meaning contributing to legit publications and working on a legit website finally!

In the meanwhile. I will keep you guys posted with some cool stuff happening around town.





So the homie David Haskell (all around realist/badass who used to work at Bin8945, Le Cirque, Vertical Wine Bistro) is doing a pop up with Chef Joseph Mahon (formerly of Bastide) at the Glutster favorite, Biergarten.

The menu seems to be partly inspired by the Asian flavors with things like Carrot Curry Pudding, Coconut Soup with mussels, tapioca, cilantro, basil and pistou, Wild Mushrooms, White Soy, Sesame Rice Paper, Fried Chicken with bacon, radish, arugula, celery and buttermilk dressing, Confit Pork Cheeks with béarnaise mouse and a waffle surprise!

The 5 courses will be available for $56 per person. If you're a real hedonist, you'll probably upgrade to the 7 course tasting for an extra $10 more.

But the reason I myself will be going is just to see what the David-meister will pair up this time. I swear, the guy could pair a fitting wine with a bag of Flamin' Hot Cheetoes if he had to. He will have quite the tasty artillery on his side with wine, sake and Neil Kwan's (Biergarten Owner) extensive selection of 20+ craft beers on tap.

His drinks will run the bill an extra $54 (He will pair each course, same price for 5 or 7 course dinners).

Reservations can be made by emailing Neil Kwan at Neilskwon@gmail.com or by calling Biergarten after 4:00pm @ 323-466-4860.

After all, 'tis the season for Splurging que no?

Pumpkin Beer And Punk! A Night Of Live Music At Biergarten This Thursday, Nov 4th 8:00 PM (Freeeee!)

Punk, Beer Or Food? For Once, A Night Of All 3!


Introducing an awesome night of live music at Biergarten!

Both my worlds will clash this upcoming Thursday night as a few of my o.g high school homies (actually my age!) show Koreatown what's up with their true East L.A born-and-bred soulful sounds.



Dance Inducing and Fun Producing: The Shagrats


First up we have the twang spiked, psychedelic evolved sounds of The Shagrats! Boots (singer) and I used to listen to The Casualties and drink 40 oz since we were in Middle School man. They played at my 21st birthday party and tore shit up with their bluezy beats and fervidly synced power chords.


The Delirians: Do it steady! Rocksteady!


Second up are The Delirians. Anthony Medina (keys; organist) and I used to talk about cute girls--and teachers--back in my mocoso Garfield High School days. I've seen these guys evolve from fast and loud "Ska-Core" to the mellow and bouncy sound that they have now.





Also in the lineup is Anomalie & The Speakeasy Earth The powerful lyrics and catchy guitar shreddage of this one woman band has recently captivated me (meaning listening to her EP sometimes 5 times in a row, he he).






And last but not least, the guys of Backseat Bingo will be charming the ladies with their jocular lyrics and entertaining beats.

Sooo...shooot doooown! Have a beer (or 5) and bob your head at least!

First band goes up at 8! (hopefully!)
Freeeeeee!
