Our restaurants have made an impact both here and across the country. They've created some of America's favorite dishes, like French dips and tuna tartare. These are the game-changers that forever changed where and how we dine out.
Simmer down and drown out the election year chatter with wine tastings, yard sales, DIY projects, and glitchy DJs -- you know, weekend stuff. Here's what we'll be up to over the next three days.

After weeks of extreme weather, the heat's finally giving us a much-needed break from its tyranny. To celebrate, we are going to run around the city all weekend. Heck, we might even bring a sweater!
Haven Burger opens today at Pasadena's Haven Gastropub and Brewery. This is the lunch-only burger menu that's available in the back of the restaurant -- it even has its own entrance (off the alley).
For a quick, delicious and relatively inexpensive fast-food pizza option, Umami Burger's 35-year old honcho, Adam Fleishman, and Chef Anthony Carron have reinvented the whee ... only this time the wheel is edible!
If not for the sandwich board out front with the daily specials, you might miss what is essentially a hole in a wall in downtown Santa Monica. But through that hole (it's actually a door), is one of the better burger-and-beer joints on the coast.
