Inaugural Long Beach Burger Week

08.02.21

Long Beach residents and visitors alike are in for a treat as dozens of local restaurants and food retailers will offer unique over-the-top Burgers and value-priced Burger Offers when the inaugural Long Beach Burger Week just launched through August 8.  

Organized by local non-profit Long Beach Food & Beverage and thanks to a generous grant from the City of Long Beach, executive director Terri Henry, who brought the original restaurant week to Long Beach with partners in 2014, felt that in addition to encouraging local and surrounding "foodies” to enjoy what the expanding Long Beach culinary community has to offer, events like Burger Week support the local economy of valued restaurants. 

Featured Burgers are value-priced at $5, $10, $15 and $20. A few of the more unique over-the-top burger offers to include:

Like the past few restaurant weeks, Burger Week is even taking “dog-friendly” one step further by encouraging restaurants with patios to offer a special Burger Week Menu just for dogs!

There are no tickets or passes to purchase. Burger lovers are invited to dine-in, take-out or have featured delivered from their favorite restaurants, or order from the websites of various pop-ups or home cottage businesses for pick-up. Participating restaurants, food businesses, and offers can be found at BurgerWeekLB.com. All special offers will be online by July 15th.

LA-Based Baltimore Bag Co.

07.31.21

Introducing the BALTIMORE BAG CO. by Los Angeles-based designer and manufacturer, Jerey Ojeah!  A seasoned veteran on the fashion front, Jerey brings to the scene a luxurious “American Made” handbag collection made of “genuine leather” rather than “bonded”, creating timeless pieces of the highest quality giving you the feel, true nature, and texture of real leather.  From the boardroom to the boardwalk, you are truly going to be accessorized in style!

Handcrafted locally and produced with American leather by American craftsmen, styles are framed against timeless classic shapes – clutches, totes, backpacks, rounds, cross body, bucket, messengers, mud cloth, jute, canvas, fanny packs, belts, hobos, weekenders and carry all “super” bags – each evergreen creation will age well with time, both in style and texture.  

Also available are exotic skins such as crocodile, Mongolian sheep along with the traditional calfskin and cowhide. Each piece evokes a bold statement that brings the visual richness and diversity of tradition into a thoroughly modern context for sophisticated women everywhere!  

And for those that like true “1 Of A Kind” pieces, Jerey has also taken to recycling materials and creating fabulous patchwork cross body bags that are truly eye-catching! 

With an eye on the luxury market, Jerey chose to work with genuine leather because bonded leather is not durable, has a shorter life span, colors fade, it wears away, scratches and peals easily and it’s harder to clean.  And though she is LA-based, Jerey named her collection as an homage to one of the oldest city’s in America as she felt it encapsulated the spirit of “America” with its historic part in the birth of the country. 

Sold online or via her retail boutique, Easy Living (located in a historic building in the burgeoning Koreatown area of Los Angeles amid the epicenter of lively dining, dancing, and retail shops along 6th Street), her focus was initially selling clothing and accessories from unique national and international brands. 

However, it was here that Jerey began designing and selling her own creations and the brand has been steadily gaining momentum as the must-have accessory for their alluring blend of traditional elements and modern style.  Retail: $75 - $500 range.
