CitySip LA
September 27th, 2009
I had written about Dionicess IV’s chocolate and beer last May, and I had heard about the Dionicess events that had come before that as well, so though I had never been, I was sure I knew what to expect from Gev Kazanchyan’s Dionicess V.
This was my first event: beer by four different breweries and pizza by Tomato Pie. Simple enough, right? Well, no. Not really.
Not all Those Who Serve are Barkeeps
Once at CitySip I was put to work immediately and met the team as I went.
All together, we were a fellowship of ten behind the bar: Gev Kazanchyan, writer, professor, and gracious host; Nicole Daddio, owner of CitySip LA who not only donated her space but went above and beyond to help out through the day; Nate Sellergren, home-brewer extraordinaire and Stone Brewing Co. rep; Dave Watrous (the “Greuze-Hound”) humanitarian, teacher, and beer-savant; and Harout Bursayan, photographer and Dionicess graphic designer.

On September 27th, at the infamous CitySip in Echo Park, Real Medicine invites you to relive your college glory days in a manner benefiting the mature adult you are today.
Like a journey into another dimension, Dionicess V transforms drinking beer and eating pizza into an accomplishment worthy of proud display on any social networking or dating site. With all proceeds going to Real Medicine not only does this night of charitable cuisine give you holier-than-thou status for at least a week, you can write it off on your taxes and maybe even put it on your resume. The possibilities are virtually endless. Then again, so are the mind blowing combinations offered for this night of culinary complexity.
For Dionicess V, Gev Kazanchyan, a veritable Match.com for food and beverage, has taken 5 premium beers from SoCal Craft Breweries and, after months of painstaking research, has successfully paired them with 5 gourmet pizzas from Tomato Pie in a line up poised to hijack your senses and smuggle you down to flavor-town on a taste-sensation express. You might want to bring a friend for safety’s sake.

This upcoming weekend is Big Sunday, and we still need volunteers.
The event is both on Saturday and Sunday, from 9am-4pm.
Nuestra Clinica
3004 Whittier Blvd.
Los Angeles, 90023
Big Sunday, May 2nd and 3rd in Boyle Heights
Real Medicine Foundation joins Big Sunday to expand the Nuestra Clinica in Boyle Heights, East Los Angeles Ca.
In July of 2008, doctors Carol Daugherty and Greg Jahangiri opened the Nuestra Clinica for the vastly underserved people of Boyle Heights in East Los Angeles. Now, less than a year later, they have over 600 active patients and provide about 100 people per week with general care such as: physicals, vaccinations, std testing and treatments, gynecological and obstetric care among others.
RMF Kids connect with the Ironman team Athletes for Real Medicine
Confessions of a Shopaholic movie Real Medicine asked the children in our Los Angeles based Florence Western Medical Center to think about what it meant to be an Ironman and to draw what came to mind.
