la.eater.com – David Zhao/Chubby Curry – Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: January 8

“Wagyu burger at Chubby Curry in Beverly Hills.
The server kept recommending the burger at Beverly Hills’s new Chubby Curry, a restaurant that might fit better in the SGV or Koreatown than the tony 90210 zip code. While the curry and katsu are all fantastic, chefs Liga Sigal and Shin Thompson’s version of a hefty pub-style burger hits it out of the ballpark…”

la.eater.com – David Zhao/Mikiya Shabu House – For all-you-can-eat Japanese A5 wagyu: Mikiya Shabu House

“Chubby Restaurant Group has plans for total U.S. domination in the high-end hotpot market using a membership model that offers a discount to those willing to shell out $28 a year. The memberships ensure that a regular group of diners will indulge in unlimited Japanese A5 wagyu or other high-end cuts from Australia or the U.S. It’s unclear how the business works profit-wise, but the chain is rapidly expanding to Houston, New York City, Boston, and Santa Clara. Prices for non-members range from $45 to $98 and include a choice of two broths, like sukiyaki or konbu, and a parade of fatty, tender, wagyu slices. — Matthew Kang, lead editor

“We ended 2023 in spectacular fashion with a memorable dining experience at Mastro’s Beverly Hills. Three floors of dining offer a distinct environment, each with a sophisticated ambience. The frst level is dark and cozy, while the second floor is more intimate. The rooftop Penthouse is the newest addition to the restaurant.

Checking in at the first floor, we were escorted through the historic building to an elevator to ride to the Penthouse where another gracious host greeted us and guided us to a window table…”

today.com – Power Shower – Gadgets and gizmos aplenty: These gifts are perfect for the tech fanatic in your life

“Believe it or not, this is a shower head that claims to save water. How it works is that it tracks when you’re in and out of the shower using motion sensor technology. But to turn it on, a simple wave or a tap of a button through its app activates all of its features. This includes Alexa and Google voice-activation, and water and energy tracking.

The universal nozzle can be installed in a majority of showers, whether it be indoors or outdoors, and can be turned off if you prefer to use without the automatic feature…”
