Grilled Halloumi with Sumac-Dusted Stone Fruit SaladAugust 05, 2021 at 11:00AM We’re looking for any excuse to eat more peaches, nectarines and plums this season and we’ve found just the recipe that’ll let us binge on stone fruits in the best way possible. Seasonally inspired FIG Restaurant in Santa Monica - known for its impeccable cocktails and in-the-know locals’ happy hour - has mixed up its menu with a new Mediterranean vibe we can’t get enough of. At a recent dinner to try out their new wood-oven-centric eats, we were so focused on this sumac spice-dusted stone fruit salad we barely left room for dessert (the horror!).

Let These Celebrity Outfits Remind You That Red Carpet Fashion Is Back and Better Than Ever

One second she was looking chic in a pinstripe suit and the next she was wearing a Valentino cape dress that came with a feathered headpiece and wild sunglasses. (What can’t she wear, am I right?) Blake Lively also made her first red carpet appearance in a long time wearing a sexy cutout Prabal Gurung gown to support her husband Ryan Reynolyd’s new movie Free Guy. Storm…
