Few things can top a quality steak dinner as one of my all-time favorite meals — although I must admit that half the reason I look forward to going to a steakhouse is for the classic sides. The one side I'll always order is creamed spinach, especially the version from the House of Prime Rib. What's your favorite side?

Halle Berry showed off her stylish bangs yesterday in LA as she visited a spa and met up with girlfriends for dinner at BOA Steakhouse. She told Jay Leno last week that she isn't pregnant, so Halle went right ahead and enjoyed wine with her meal. Even though Halle has been all about covering her tummy and rocking flowy shirts, it looks like for the meantime adorable Nahla will continue to be the sole apple of her parents' eyes.

Tonight serve your loved ones a meal inspired by the classic steakhouse dinner of meat, potatoes, and wedge salad. The potatoes are roasted in the oven, while the ribeye steaks are seared on the grill. A quick but wildly flavorful salsa verde (a mixture of chives, capers, oregano, thyme, and garlic) coats the cooked and crispy potatoes.

We've always been huge fans of New York chef and restaurateur David Chang: He was Sugar's pick for Best Restaurant Chef of 2008. By fusing innovative flavor combinations and haute kitchen techniques with casual dining, the Momofuku overlord revolutionized the restaurant scene in America.
What's most refreshing about Chang, however, are his irreverent demeanor and unapologetic opinions.

Robert Pattinson looked like he had a fun Saturday night out on the town in Vancouver as he headed home with his shirt buttoned up all kinds of messy. It was a deserved break after a long week of work which included filming with Kristen Stewart and Billy Burke. Burke headed back to LAX Saturday after shooting the scenes with his onscreen daughter.

Not too long ago, I enjoyed my favorite steakhouse side, creamed spinach, with a reliable hunk of aged meat at the House of Prime Rib. I hadn't had the dish in a while, and when I took my first bite I instantly remembered what it felt like to have "spinach teeth" — a gritty, uncomfortable sensation that one experiences after eating spinach. Why, I wondered, does spinach leave your teeth feeling rough?For starters, spinach grows best in sandy soil, so the grittiness may very well come from actual sand if it's not been thoroughly washed.

Gwen Stefani was back in LA yesterday after her family's recent trip to Hawaii for the last show on her tour with No Doubt. She met up with friends at BOA Steakhouse, but the first thing on her agenda was a stop by the lingerie store Agent Provocateur. Gwen manages to spice up her looks on stage or on the street with colorful undergarments, and it looks like she picked something new up to add to her personal collection or give to a pal.
