Treasure LA is a Los Angeles based food blog written by a food and culture enthusiast named Nick. The goal of Treasure LA is to highlight many of Los Angeles’s hidden treasures, as well as to remind Angelenos of why they should treasure this great city. Nick also argues that since our most precious resource is our time, the blog aims to help you make the most out of your limited time (and money).
I have come to expect detailed reviews of restaurants, food/drink, cultural landmarks, music, etc. I admire Nick’s enthusiasm on the subject, as it rivals mine, so I believe that this blog will be a great reference for content and information throughout the course of this calendar year. Nick does a great job of giving you more than just an RSS feed on fantastic dining and drinking options. Instead, he comments on his whole experience, from travel, arrival, dining experience, and the people who surround him. Consequently, the reader feels like he or she is actually taking part in the experience and further validates his claims and recommendations.
Furthermore, I think that Treasure LA will feed me blog by stimulating ideas and adventures of my own throughout the city. For example, Nick posts information on the latest tasting, events, and other culinary opportunities that are offered in downtown on a regular basis. His content rich/frequent posting gives me a good barometer of what I would like to accomplish in my blog.
Lastly, although Nick does a fantastic job with the creation of his blog, I want to go a step further with mine, and be a little more hands on, adventurous, and spur of the moment. I want to eat what the locals do, do what the locals do, and really get my hands dirty; and not to mention, I would like to add a drink dynamic to my blog, which will also open to discussion to all the great watering holes that our city has to offer, and the culture that is a product of it.
