It’s the end of July, which puts us right in the middle of summer. Chances are you’ve found yourself completely prepared for all the season had to bring, or you’ve been lacking here and there. Either way, this is the guide you probably didn’t think you needed, to survive these next couple of months.
Little Kitchen Academy
Kids. You just gotta love them, but sometimes you have to love them from afar. Summer is officially in full swing, and as the novelty of having no school has worn off for children of all ages, parents are beginning to hear the dreaded phrase “I’m bored!” or “There’s nothing to do!” Enter Westfield Century City, the premier destination for shopping, entertainment, and dining.
Located in the heart of LA, the options at Westfield Century City are endless, so we wanted to highlight one of our favorite kid-friendly experiences available at Westfield – Little Kitchen Academy, a Montessori – inspired cooking academy for kids ages 3- 13+.
Little Kitchen Academy offers sessions Monday through Sunday, where your child will experience a 3-hour class and they will learn how to make healthy and delicious meals from scratch to consumption. During each session your child will learn how to combine different ingredients into great meals and how to use kitchen tools safely, all while gaining self-confidence. There are four different curriculums that are offered, for ages 3-5; 6-8; 9-12; and 13+. Each class is tailored specifically to each age group, making it the perfect solution for mid-summer “boredom.”
Brella
So you’ve already gone on a vacation for the summer, but that was for the kids. What about your adults-only time away? Brella, the innovative LA-based child care center is here to answer that question, by supporting busy parents who want to take a day trip on Saturday, or have a date in the city.
From full-time care to last-minute summer needs and everything in between, Brella’s plans are 100% flexible to account for whatever type of child care is needed. Parents can pick between three different plans with varying levels of commitment and are able to use the innovative, newly relaunched Brella App to determine their child’s schedule, day to day, week by week.
Brella provides the first-ever truly flexible child care model allowing families to schedule by the hour and day through an easy-to-use app. With a network of centers, families can access multiple locations with a single enrollment. Brella’s founders Melanie and Darien are providing community-oriented solutions to an age-old problem. Inspired by the likes of WeWork and SoulCycle, Brella strives to make themselves just as accessible.
After the smashing success of their first location opening in 2019, Brella opened a second location this June in the heart of Hollywood’s Sycamore district. The space is bookended by the best up-and-coming hotspots such as Tartine, known for their exquisite baked goods, the Jeffrey Deitch gallery, and the sprawling new all-day corner café, Sightglass Coffee, and are opening a third location this fall in Pasadena.
dryrobe
Even during the summer it can get pretty chilly! dryrobe, the latest cult wardrobe item from Britain making waves in the U.S., was designed as a changing robe for all outdoor adventurers to put on. Whether you need to change clothes with privacy or quickly get dry after being in water, dry robe is here to change what has long been a complicated process for beachgoers – and anyone having fun in a body of water outdoors.
The brand’s spotlight robe, the dryrobe Advance, is both unisex and sustainable, available in short and long sleeve lengths, and comes in a wide range of colors — all made using 100% recycled nylon. The synthetic lambswool interior is made from recycled polyester and wicks moisture away while fleece-lined exterior pockets do their bit to restore feeling to extremities after swimming in chilly waters. It also doubles as a fashion statement, loved by and seen on Harry Styles and Rita Ora in their day to day. We’ve seen a rise in functionality in fashion, and people choosing to wear an item that was built purely for performance as a personal style choice. The dryrobe fits perfectly in this current model of dressing, and includes the following benefits:
- Waterproof and windproof outer shell fabric made from 100% recycled nylon
- Super-warm synthetic lambswool lining made from 100% recycled polyester
- Tailored, fitted sleeves with hook and loop fasteners at the wrist

Summer Read: The Apocalypse Game
You need a little something for the upcoming beach day, you say? Can the worst traits of humanity, together with unbridled science, artificial intelligence, and encouraged by super-natural evil, spark the apocalypse?
After a dozen waves of COVID, refugees crowd New York City where the antihero, Jonas Gredas (20), is a terribly handicapped social misfit with an off-the-charts IQ, and a fan of fantasy stories, because the monsters are never weak. An atheist, he’s haunted by a voice who guides him, which may be his subconscious. With the voice’s help, Jonas creates a never-before-seen AI companion, named Hela. He hopes Hela will heal his withered body, give him safety from his abusers, and enable him to gain the love of the mysterious Sara.
But unexpectedly, he makes enemies of the police and FBI, the church, and a computer titan. Succored only by an ancient priest whom Jonas loathes, Jonas must run from the FBI as they destroy Hela. Out of options, Jonas considers suicide until Hela miraculously returns to him, bringing him hope. Together, they work to save humanity from death and disease. But Jonas’s enemies still hound him, pushing Hela toward fulfilling Jonan’s every monstrous fantasy, just as his lifelong demonic haunt works to arrange; the looming apocalypse.
Comparables: The Apocalypse Game reminds one of Mary Shelley’s thought-provoking, science gone too far, Frankenstein; Dan Brown’s thrilling artificial intelligence comes-to-life, Origin; or Stephen King’s gripping supernatural tale The Stand.

Social wellness club, Remedy Place, will be the official Halfway Pit Stop for the LA Marathon on Sunday, March 20.

Where can you find a gluten-free bakery that offers a full breakfast/brunch and lunch menu, and a baker’s delights? If you thought such a place didn’t exist, you’d be wrong. Breadblok — an L.A. favorite — has taken everything there is to love about our guilty food pleasures and made them even better, with a brand new Silver Lake location.
LA’s favorite gluten-free bakery has expanded to the Eastside with a brand-new restaurant & retail bakery, joining their Santa Monica location. Arguably a dreamscape, Breadblok’s range of deliciousness includes, all organic, gum-free, soy-free, and refined sugar-free ingredients processed in their dedicated facility. What Breadblok has achieved with their locations equates to a community hub where neighbors, both local and from afar, stop by for health-conscious selections they can count on from the friendly team.
We had the incredible opportunity to try some of their amazingly delicious food offerings prepared by their chefs, and the Breadblok crew treated us as if we had walked into a neighborhood market celebrating its 50th year in business. The restaurant, clean, organized, and deceivingly small, makes great use of simplicity, minimalism, and space by showing you nothing more than what you need to see: the food and the merchandise available for purchase. With this spotlight putting everything into focus, Breadblok Silver Lake feels so much larger than it is, and pairs all of this with a graciously spaced outdoor dining area.
Breadblok’s breakfasts and brunches include, but are not limited to a bacon Breakfast Sandwich, Potato Galette, a Breakfast Plate, and a surprisingly light Vanilla Brioche French Toast. Lunch menu options are hearty and wholesome, with Quiche Lorraine, Vegetable Quiche, and two Pizza options, while Avocado Toast, Smoked Salmon Tartine, and Croque Monsieur, melty Baguette Sandwiches, and brimming Salads complete the rest of the menu’s food options. No bakery is complete without a selection of baked goods, and Breadblok has more than you could ask for in gluten-free bread and sweet varieties.
Finally, Breadblok’s drink choices include a variety of coffees, teas, and specialty drinks, like the Lavender Latte and Pink Velvet Latte, all made with the milk or plant-based milk of the buyer’s choice. Big on flavor, and crafted with love, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see that Breadblok had regulars who just stopped by for coffee and a doughnut to soak in a heartwarming, pet-friendly, neighborly vibe.

March begins National Nutrition Month, and what better way to kick things off, than with Kori Krill Oil and helpful information from Nutritionist Rania Batayneh, MPH? For many who began 2022 on a health kick, experiences have ranged from effortless to completely off the rails, but Kori Krill Oil can help everyone with the least effort.
Even with the growing trend of diet-conscious people today, nutrition deficiencies are still rampant in the United States, with a whopping 70% of the U.S. population deficient in omega-3’s — a key nutrient for heart health.
With just one serving of superior Omega-3 supplement Kori Krill Oil ($19.99), 250 grams of EPA and DHA Omega-3 fatty acids are provided to your body – the equivalent of the same amount of Omega-3s that you’d get from eating 2 servings of fish per week (recommended by U.S. dietary guidelines). As Kori Krill Oil provides Omega-3 in its most natural phospholipid form, distribution is superior and converts directly into cells and organs.
Read on for key pointers in our Q&A with Nutritionist Rania Batayneh, MPH, and no matter where you are in your health journey, get started making sure you’re not deficient in Omega-3’s!
Q&A With Nutritionist Rania Batayneh:
Q: Can you please share some info with our readers about your background as a nutritionist and how you got started?
In 2001, I obtained my master’s degree in nutrition from the University of Michigan School of Public Health. I started my career in San Francisco in 2001 with a focus on developing strategies to help my clients optimize their health and wellness, which results in long term weight loss. My first book, The One One One Diet is a #1 Amazon bestseller and has changed the lives of so many men and women.
Q: During this time with health and wellness interest booming, what is one of the biggest nutritional myths or misconceptions?
I think one of the biggest misconceptions is that only older generations should be worried about how nutrition can play a huge role in overall health. For example, the CDC recommends that the younger generations should also stay vigilant with their heart health too. In fact, heart disease affects 1 in 10 Americans between 20 to 39 years old. Diet and nutrition play a critical role in improving heart health, and omegas are a superfood that can not be overlooked.
Q: Can you tell us what in its formula makes Kori Krill Oil so special, and why it stands out from other comparable alternatives, like cod liver oil and salmon oil supplements?
Krill Oil, specifically Kori, the superior Omega-3 supplement really stands out compared to other fish oils on the market. Kori truly is an Omega-3 Superfood. Antioxidant powered for 6+ benefits including heart, brain, joint, eye, skin and immune health with superior absorption versus fish oils.
Kori Krill Oil Omega-3s are in phospholipid form, which supports Omega-3 distribution throughout the body and delivery to the body’s cells. Since krill oil Omega-3s are in a phospholipid form (their most natural form) that blends easily in our stomachs, you do not get that fishy aftertaste or fishy burps.
Q: Just from a nutritional standpoint, what are some of the highlights that Kori offers, and how do they help the body?
Like fish oil, krill oil contains DHA and EPA. However, krill oil contains the essential nutrient choline which supports brain and nervous system health, and the antioxidant astaxanthin. Fish oil doesn’t have these.
Not all Omega-3 supplements are the same and there are many important differences between krill oil and other Omega-3 supplements, like fish oil that make Krill Oil the superior Omega-3 superfood source. Some key differences include:
Kori Krill Oil naturally has more nutrients and comes in their most natural form for even more health benefits vs. traditional omega-3 sources.
Kori Krill Oil is the most natural Omega-3 form whose antioxidant power supports heart, brain, joint, eye, skin and immune health with superior absorption versus fish oils.
Superfoods are not only packed with nutrients, but they are clean by nature. Kori Krill Oil is naturally non-gmo, which means no artificial flavors, colors & preservatives are needed.
Q: 70% of the U.S. population is deficient in Omega-3’s. What are some health issues that can arise over time due to a lack of sufficient Omega-3’s?
Omegas are always top of mind (literally and figuratively!). Consumers are embracing Omega-3s as they are critical for our brain, eye, skin, heart, join, and immune health. Salmon (or a healthy fish diet) is one of the most recognized superfoods out there, because its Omega-3 EPA & DHA nutrients are essential fatty acids our bodies need. The American Heart Association recommends that you consume 2 servings of fish/week. But >70% of Americans aren’t eating enough of a healthy fish diet, resulting in too low Omega-3 levels.
A more “superficial” example is one of which impacts your skin. The term “Inflammaging” is a meld of the words “inflammation” and “aging,” and lends itself to the concept that inflammation leads to quick aging of the skin. If you are not eating 2 servings of fatty fish each week, it is quite likely that you are deficient in omega-3s which are essential fatty acids. While we can’t take a look inside our bodies, what we see can be a reflection of a deficiency. When our diets are deficient in fatty acids, you may start to experience dry skin. Reason being: Omega-3 fatty acids are important in keeping our skin hydrated and strong. Supplementing with a product that in its natural form — like Kori Krill Oil — can make an impact on your skin.
Are there any final points you’d like to stress about the importance of implementing Kori Krill Oil and Omega-3’s into regular daily intake?
If your diet is lacking in omegas, my recommendation for an added source of Omega-3s is Kori Krill Oil which offers Omega-3s in its most natural form, closest to eating a healthy fish diet. Think of it this way, a supplement should supplement your diet. Sounds simple, right? When you look at your diet (meaning what you eat, not what you shouldn’t eat!) are you getting the essentials? One of which are your Omega 3 fatty acids. To find out, ask yourself this question, “Am I eating 2 servings of fish each week?” If the answer is no, then a supplement is a good idea. Not only do Omega-3s help with our brain health, they are also powerful antioxidants which help support our eye, skin, heart, joint, and immune health.
Some supplements target only one part of your health-your hair, your eyes, your skin, but what if there was one that helped with all of them. KORI is the one supplement your entire body can benefit from-head to toe. What’s more, research suggests that omega-3s from krill oil are superior to fish oil in raising Omega-3 levels in the body.

This summer, Winc is making that a little bit easier by helping the city of Los Angeles “Bring the Party” through their partnership with the city’s hottest new car service – Ride Alto.
