This is our favorite meal right now, Chong Qing YaoMei in Pasadena is our go to. 1/2 spicy chili oil broth and 1/2 classic bone broth when you need a spice break. Recommend the duck blood, shrimp balls, yam noodles, enoki + wood ear shrooms. And also the red bean sesame balls for a little sweet treat at the end of your meal. Matt likes to dip the sesame balls in the broth but Mica thinks that is wrong.

Great movie to kick off the new year, on at 9 PM on the 31st at the Studio Galande cinema in the 5th arrondissement, lots of fun and probably very nice people to meet. Come dressed up for extra fun.
As a bonus, I believe it's the only theatre in the world that's been showing the movie weekly with actors since it first came out in 1975, so that's pretty cool !

If youâre from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Donât! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, itâs worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because itâs cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. Itâs not really anything special visually but itâs a beautiful institution and itâs so fun to be there â¤ď¸
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loewâs Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! Itâs pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but itâs a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

It's all about physical media these days. If you know, you know. We were trying to find movies on streaming that just don't exist online. You never know when your favorite movie or show will be erased from the internet, so why not own it in a tangible format you can always count on?

We adopted a puppy this year and recommend it. At first they will peepee and poopoo everywhere but once that's figured out it's the best thing ever. Our dog Wolfie makes us laugh so much and his cuteness is like a constant stream of dopamine throughout the day. He is a good boy!
