Intermezzo at Quattro
There’s a new addition at Four Seasons East Palo Alto. The aptly named, “Intermezzo” now occupies the space between the bar scene and full-on dinning experience at Quattro (the Four Seasons restaurant). Last Friday, MODE had the chance to celebrate the grand opening.
Italian for “in between,” Intermezzo serves up a wildly diverse selection of small plates and appetizers. Diners have the choice of eating Famiglia (all at once), Festivo (as its ready) and Formale (course by course). A lot of the plates are designed to be shared—with this in mind there is a huge portion of the menu that can be prepared gluten free upon request. All menu items were created by Executive Chef Marco Fossati, Chef de Cuisine Edward Higgins and Pastry Chef Eric Keppler.
I started off with a th [...] Continue reading →
Madison Elizabeth Giveaway and Feature
We always love sharing fashionable finds with our readers, and having contests and giveaways. But we especially love it when we’re able to showcase something that is not only trendy, fun, and fab but easy on the pocketbook too. Those are some of the things we love Madison Elizabeth clutches!
We had a chance to interview Madison, the designer and creator at Madison Elizabeth clutches and we think the future is bright for this young designer and we thank her for sending us this clutch [that has gotten us more compliments than we can count]. Next on our list? A chevron striped clutch dipped in orange [or pink] oh we can’t choose just one or two! But we do love the chevron stripe!
Check out our fun photos featuring Madison Elizabeth and enter for your chance to win a c [...] Continue reading →
Sole Society Style
Many of you know that I wear a lot of Sole Society and it’s so awesome that many of you have joined too! We especially love sharing our Sole Society pics on Instagram. We wait eagerly to see what comes into our closet at 12:01 on the 1st of each month and then we get to enjoy the most amazing shoes that get us lots of looks and questions each month.
With the beautiful colors coming in for Spring the shoes keep getting hotter and hotter.
We decided to bring Coco out and dress her in some outfits paired with our favorite Sole Society Shoes! If you haven’t tried Sole Society yet, open a free account and see what your “style” is.

Welcoming 2012 In Style- Tech meets Fashion!
This month MODE received a $50 from Stanford Shopping Center to see how we would bring in 2012. Being that we love tech and we love fashion we thought a lap top case was the perfect choice! We already told you that Tangerine Tango was the color of the year and we’re obsessed with everything bright and fun! And we couldn’t have dreamed up a better case. We found this beauty at Macy’s and it was love at first site.
Besides being fashionable and fun, this “briefcase” is very light and comes with a handle or a strap for ease of use. It’s available in other colors too but we wanted to follow the fashion trends and go with something bright!
You can also follow Stanford Shopping Center and MODE Bay Area on Facebook if you have any questions for [...] Continue reading →
Chile Pies

San Francisco is one of the greatest places in the world for specialty restaurants. We’ve got entire establishments dedicated to only french fries, chicken and waffle sandwiches, and now pies! The trending pie movement isn’t exactly a new thing, but named by many publications one of the best resides right here in the city. The newly open Chile Pies, a few steps from Church Station, is the newest addition to owner Trevor Logan’s mini-empire.
When we stepped inside I instantly fell in love with the entire set up. It’s simple and straight to the point. They’ve got their menu of the day split easily between savory goods and sweet goods. Their menu consists of pies, pot pies, mexican [...] Continue reading →
Sleeping to Learn
Here is an article I read recently regarding sleep and learning.
With the school year starting, many of us are mulling over the question of how our little ones learn best. But a growing body of research tells us that how kids sleep may be as important to their learning as the types of challenges and stimulation they’re exposed to during the day. Mounting evidence shows real, measurable differences between the high-functioning brain of a well-rested child and the sluggish autopilot brain of one who is sleep deprived. Those differences have a significant impact on our little ones’ ability to grow and succeed.
