FABB Dinner Out in The Grove

Although we heard rumors of the "big bloggers" being invited to dinner and after parties by various affiliate marketers and blog agencies, I was not invited to any of those.  It isn't much of a surprise considering I don't really promote this blog, but it was a bit of a dis', ya know?  In any case, my husband came in on Friday and hung out with some mutual friends during the conference.  Then we met up with some bloggers and their friends and significant others for drinks at The Bazaar by Jose Andres there at the SLS.  You can see the Magic Mojito I drank here.  We had a great time discovering all the connections to Kansas (Brenda and I both married KU guys, Jennifer is from Kansas, etc.) and how Christina's fiancee and my husband are both engineers. It was a great time.

After drinks, Mr. Fantastic and I headed to the Grove to search for dinner.  We ended up at the Original Farmers Market and had the best meal of our trip there.  We picked up some curry at Singapore Banana Leaf and grabbed a pitcher of Sangria from Little Spain and sat down at a table to enjoy our night out in Beverly Hills.
How gorgeous is Coco Rocha?!?!? Simply beautiful!!
The highlight of the evening was when we ran into Coco Rocha at the SLS when we came back from dinner.  She was in the company of her husband and her make-up artist and she was just so sweet and down to earth. From her panel earlier during LuckyFABB, I knew that she isn't a fan of selfies, so my husband had to take one for the team and take our pic! Isn't she stunning?

What are your fave dinner places in LA?
