Executive Chef Irving Medina of the highly-touted Colors on Bedford restaurant in Beverly Hills, indulged the ladies with an assortment of appetizers which included smoked salmon blinis, mini crab cakes and mushrooms stuffed with spinach & ricotta cheese. For the sit-down lunch, the divas started with a Portobello mushroom soup and, for the entre, the choice was a New York steak salad served with Napa greens, Toy-Box tomatoes, shaved Tuscan cantaloupe with an orange ginger vinaigrette OR roasted “free range” chicken breast served with Cipolline onions, asparagus and black-eyed peas. For dessert, the divas were served Colors on Bedford’s famous Bombe, a raspberry, mango and passion fruit sorbet, covered with white chocolate and served with assorted cookies. Sharon Case and Rachel Melvin said, “The food is so delicious and the service is wonderful! We are going to plan all of our parties here!”

You have so many colors and styles to choose from and frankly, I’d much rather wear bags on my hips instead of under my eyes!” And Julie Pinson chimed in, “I just can’t get over how stylish the Bisadora Hip Purse is and what a fashion statement it makes! I’m throwing out my fanny-pack!”
