Basically, everyone and their moms had gone to previous ludobites v1.0, 2.0., 3.0. and now 4.0.

LA Wine Fest June 5-6

Image
The LA Wine Fest is coming to town!!! At Raleigh Studios on Melrose, right across from Paramount Pictures. Last year, I couldn't go and I was pretty sad but I'll be there this year and you should too. If you buy tickets and type in "jin" for the promo code, you can get $15 off single day tickets. For more information, go to http://www.lawinefest.com/ . For wine haters, there will also be tequila, beer, food. For wine lovers, this is where you should be June 5 and/or 6th. Also, for all you raw foodists, I read in a raw food cook book that wine is actually okay on the raw food diet. So really, we can all enjoy this event!
