Paul Martin’s Tuesday Special: 3-Course Fried Chicken Meal
07.29.13
Named one of “OC’s Best,” Paul Martin's American Grill in Irvine's Tuesday 3-Course Fried Chicken Meal is not to be missed. Its upscale version of the classic American dish features choice pieces of all natural, free-range Pitman Family Farms chicken dipped in a buttermilk mixture before being fried to crispy perfection. This mouthwatering dish is served with a baby lettuce salad and house-made ice cream for dessert ($20).
At the heart of all great food is fresh, local, peak of the season ingredients. Paul Martin's aims to serve diners the highest quality ingredients with meat and poultry raised in a humane and wholesome way, locally sourced produce, the best of both wild and farmed seafood, artisan cheeses and cured meats from small local purveyors. It's American food at its best. "Local. Seasonal. Delicious."

Max Mara’s JBag, The New ‘It Bag’
07.26.13
Max Mara, the luxe Italian brand that predates Gucci and Prada as the first ready-to wear house in Italy has chosen a celebrity to be the face of an international campaign. The new JBag, named after Jennifer Garner, is now available at Max Mara at South Coast Plaza for Fall 2013 in calfskin in tobacco and black for $1390. Arriving soon will be multi-color and ostrich JBags.
It’s no surprise that Garner, a mother of three and talented hardworking actress was chosen to represent the line. "Jennifer Garner is a real woman, not a cover girl, not a starlet, and she has different interests, a family and values," Luigi Maramotti, Max Mara’s chairman said in WWD. "She is a real woman and embodies the Max Mara woman, she perfectly reflects our image."
The JBag is an ideal bag for multi-faceted women, as Jennifer Garner said in a Max Mara press release, "I like the size of the JBag. I like that it's big enough to carry anything you want to stuff in there, but it's small enough that you won't lose your keys!"
We love the JBag for its sophisticated design, handcrafted details and its understated glamour for day and night.
Open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday to Friday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday.
Level 1, outside of Macy’s, MaxMara South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa. 714.754.7900
