Eating in LA......

Much to my surprise, I did not find LA to be all that vegan/vegetarian-friendly.  It was actually disappointing.  I just had it in my mind that meat and dairy would be harder to come by than almond milk and tofu but now I know.  It could explain the $23 veggie burger though.  Still have trouble believing that. 

Luckily, we did find Stuff I Eat Vegan Restaurant and had dinner there before we went to see Imagine Dragons in concert at The Forum. 

The restaurant is super cute and very open.  Pink Himalayan salt, fruit-infused water, and picnic tables with benches to eat at.  The place was extremely clean too.  Good vibes all the way around.




The girls both ordered the organic soul food platter.  This was a massive amount of food including yams, vegan mac'n'cheese, BBQ tofu, kale greens, black-eyed peas, cornbread muffin, vegan potato salad, and coleslaw.

I ordered the Sumthin-Sumthin which included wild rice, seasoned tofu, black beans, corn, guacamole, carrots, un-tuna, and two corn tortillas.

The food is a little expensive but considering it is made to order, insanely large portions, vegan, and 95% organic it was a good investment.

If you are in that part of LA, I would definitely recommend having breakfast or dinner at Stuff I Eat.  Check out their website here.

Concerts in Cali......

We have been to so many concerts I have lost track and while we were in California, we added two more concerts to the list.  We were able to see Thirty Seconds to Mars and then Imagine Dragons at The Forum. I know! Both of these concerts were insanely fun!

Jared Leto has my vote for best live vocals ever, I am talking EVER! And
like I said, I have seen a lot of concerts.  He is mesmerizing, beautiful,
Godlike, and all-encompassing.  Sigh......

Dan Reynolds has my vote for most sprightly, bouncy, ass-kicking,
unstoppable powerhouse!  I thought I was high-octane.  This
guy is literally a ball of energy in constant motion.  He came to win!  

We had so much fun on the whole trip but we really love going to concerts.  Next up is the return of Twenty One Pilots.  We have seen them before but cannot hardly wait for this come back.  The opening show is in Tennessee and is going to be AmaZinG!

We might have to go this year even thought it will probably be a nightmare............

But seeing/hearing Imagine Dragons, Thirty Seconds to Mars, and Awolnation all in the same place would be a dream come true!  It would also be fun to see Kendrick, Fall Out Boy, Portugal the Man, Post, and Khalid.  Not sure about some of the other lesser-known bands like the Revivalists?, Butch Walker? Black Pistol Fire? and the others.  I have never heard of any of them myself so they must be country or hillbilly bands which is definitely not my choice in music. 

We were going to go last year but I chickened out because I watched too many YouTube videos of the event the year before, and it was a mess!  Just going to see Thirty Seconds to Mars would be worth it so maybe I will not chicken out this year.

Imagine Dragons live in the ATL..........

Merry Christmas early to the girls because this is happening tonight...........
