Beacon

I was reluctant to join Twitter at first, since I couldn’t imagine the benefits of divulging my every move (nor anyone’s interest in such information).  Turns out, it’s been amazingly helpful with everything from getting people’s opinions on clothing, the best nude nail polish and where to go to dinner in Culver City.  Beacon came highly recommended and their vegetable springrolls, ginger glazed chicken wings and spicy tuna roll didn’t disappoint.

That food looks fantastic. Also wondered about using Twitter (as I am already on Facebook which I love and use regularly) but like you say there are some good recommendations for various products on there….

Looks terrific :)

I’ve resisted twitter thus far, mainly bc I just don’t quite get it (and that makes me feel old). I suppose I just need to corner someone and get the lowdown. Love the opinions you’ve generated from it! Yu-um!

8 erin { 06.18.09 at 5:22 am }

oh, everything looks delicious!

9 gina { 06.18.09 at 5:30 am }

11 Vivian { 06.18.09 at 5:39 am }

16 Renee { 06.18.09 at 6:03 am }

Ah – what IS the best nude nailpolish? I’ve been hunting for years!

17 The Look 4 Less { 06.18.09 at 6:24 am }

Wow, that looks so yummy!!

18 Sal { 06.18.09 at 6:25 am }

I was the same way … wary of Twitter, thinking it’s just be a giant dose of overshare. But it really is helpful, just as you say. And whew, that meal looks amazing!

19 Dog-Eared { 06.18.09 at 7:33 am }

that sounds great :) it’s always nice to get real opinions rather than just reading reviews!

The chicken looks so good…. Wah now I’m hungry.

24 Lisa { 06.18.09 at 8:35 am }

My husband is obsessed with Twitter at the moment but despite his boring everyday movements I must admit he’s been able to find some helpful tips from voyeuring on everyone else :)

25 Helen { 06.18.09 at 8:40 am }

43 dapper kid { 06.18.09 at 1:04 pm }

Yum, what amazing looking food! I keep wondering whether I ought to join Twitter, I have yet resisted. But then again I seem to be late to all the social network trends!

44 Haute Whimsy { 06.18.09 at 1:07 pm }

Mmm, I’ll have to try it! My boyfriend works in Culver City, so we’ve been trying new places there recently! We found the most amazing Korean BBQ at Siam Best. And my heart will always belong to Cafe Roberto because I worked for their Redondo Beach restaurant in high school. I love their bread and garlic oil!!!

45 Sara { 06.18.09 at 3:37 pm }

46 tiffany { 06.18.09 at 4:12 pm }

47 Kristine { 06.18.09 at 4:14 pm }

I have felt the same about twitter, but when I’m tempted with food…well, definitely will have to reconsider!

48 AP { 06.18.09 at 4:52 pm }

Those spring rolls look incredible!

49 Julia { 06.18.09 at 5:04 pm }

Hmm, you give a girl a reason to ponder the benefits of Twitter :)

50 Budget Babe { 06.18.09 at 7:38 pm }

I’m so glad you joined Twitter! :)

51 a.mi { 06.18.09 at 8:32 pm }

52 alison { 06.18.09 at 10:03 pm }

Yum, that food looks great!

56 Michelle { 07.13.09 at 1:54 am }

Beacon is a great restaurant! I didn’t know that you lived in L.A. and Culver City is a great destination for food. You gotta try: RoyalT, Tokyo77, Gyenari, Melt Down, Akasha, Ugo, M Cafe and Tender Greens. Haha, I’ve spent too much time eating in C. C. Check out my new fashion blog!
