Haven’s Spiced Chai Pedicure is Simple Heaven

Haute Event: Porsche 911 Speedster Unveiled at The Collection

This past weekend The Collection held an exclusive event extended solely to collectors of rare automobiles and Haute Living Magazine. The Collection brought in and unveiled the new 911 Porsche Speedster inspired from the 1953 classic Speedster. The Exclusive & Tequipment division of Porsche sent their factory representative Michael Siegloch from Germany to tell us about the highlights and features that set the 2011 911 Speedster apart from all other 911 models. As Michael began describing the 911 Speedster, I realized this is the latest version of the nostalgic Speedster from 1953 that most Americans relate to those black and white images we see of James Dean in Rebel with Without a Cause.

Haute Dining: Yamashiro, From Los Angeles to Japan

I’ll admit, its not often that a restaurant makes me feel like a bona fide Japanese diplomat, but from Yamashiro’s sweeping views of Los Angeles to the perfectly cooked surf and turf, that mission is accomplished. Perched at a height in the Hollywood hills usually reserved for Lindsay Lohan and her cronies or those brave enough to traverse Runyon Canyon on foot, Yamashiro offers a view that miraculously pierces thick smog even on the haziest of nights. The property is expansive, but one can only wander the zen garden for a limited time before the hostess summons you via remote buzzer to let you know it is time for a “Russian Mule” or “Norm’s Mai-Tai.”

San Diego is Joining the Pop-Up Restaurant Trend with Relate

What the heck is a pop-up restaurant? We found ourselves asking the same question recently when rumors of pop-ups were coming out of LA and New York, and now we're getting our first taste of one this month in San Diego, with Relate! A pop-up restaurant is basically the overtaking of a vacant space or restaurant by an amazing chef for a short amount of time. There isn't a lot of notice that they're coming, and there isn't a lot of time before they leave, but in that open window of space, a pop-up breaks up the monotony of dining in a town where you thin you've been everywhere and done everything! The menus, the locations, the people involved, none of it is permanent. It might last a month, it might last a week, and it might just last for dinner, but if you can jump in there while it's open, it's exciting!
