jungle [8], jungle [8]- client updates
stuffed animals and beer.
Supposing that a museum of natural history could be something other than a collection of old fossils and sediment stratification charts…
that it could be cool…
So why not go on a Friday night?
The First Fridays events, launched by the Natural History Museum of LA in an attempt to cross breed visitor demographic between parents and children, […] -

couch surfers, cheese, and no Steven Seagal?!
Today’s lunch was an entertaining mix of four different pizzas, the visit of a French couch surfer, an over-lunch brainstorming meeting for a new campaign for a bay area client, a lesson in pronouncing the term “Episcopalian”, a gourmet cheese plate, the different politically-correct terms for types of different native Spanish speakers, a boss-intern spontaneous […]

Wednesdays are officially vegetarian.
04.30.08 | Permalink | 2 CommentsMy first day at jungle [8] was certainly eventful. I was ready to go food hunting when Lainie decided to assign me and Tuan-Ching to lunch duty. Being the accomplished chef (not really) that I was, naturally I jumped at the opportunity to put my talents on display. I was glad to […]

Lunch Flambe
04.16.08 | Permalink | 3 CommentsToday’s lunch was a celebration of hard-boiled eggs, citrus glazed chicken, white rice, garlic bread, a kick-ass salad a la Bouaziz, and, above all, Tuan-Ching’s twenty-third birthday.
Assembling the birthday cake ensemble was daunting. Rather than simply adorning the cake with 23 candles, the decision was made to light letter-shaped candles in the traditional H-A-P-P-Y B-I-R-T-H-D-A-Y […] -

herbs, spices, vegetables and…nothing else
Today, the tectonic plates of Europe (Nora) and Asia (Tuan Ching) shook and met each other as a result in a sumptuous culinary feast for the first time in history. By adding harmoniously and imaginatively herbs, spices, vegetables in their magic pot, the “cordon bleu” chefs granted our eyes an explosion of colors, our […]

talents from the past
Often I am reminded I am many designers first boss. As time is wedged between us, there seems to be some perspective to that experience for both the green designer and myself. I have enjoyed the 50+ designers that have worked for me over the past 13 years, but it’s lovely to have the reflection […]

a jungle [8] prize shot
A few weeks ago, the jungle [8] gang went out for lunch to celebrate Olivia’s last day in the jungle, with an Ethiopian feast. As the gang was leaving, I snapped up this great shot of Olivia and Tuan in front of the cake shop next door. Tuan, why were you making obscene gestures with […]

Sustenance for a Weary Traveler
It had been raining for the past week, and the sun was nowhere in sight. The weather was cold, and I was feeling even colder. As I sat at my computer, diligently working away on PlanJam iconography and trying to ignore the cold, I was suddenly distracted by a sweet, aromatic smell.
The smell was of […] -

A memorable lunch
As today is not only the last day of January, but also this writer’s last day in the jungle, the natives took a lengthy safari to Ethiopia. We crossed that vast ocean called the 10 freeway to make a visit to Rosalind’s Ethiopian Restaurant. Drained by our lengthy trek and unaccustomed to the bright sun […]

Celebration of the palate in the jungle!!!!!!
Far from the singing cicadas, far from the red pepper braided branches ornating the porches, far from the lavender smell of the southern landscape of France that inspired Van Gogh, the Mediterranea stirred our imagination as lunch time knocked at the door.
In the torsade-shaped basket, red plump and juicy heirlooms, voluptuous potatoes, sunny granny […]
