Los Angeles's Best Cheesesteak Heads to Calabasas and Pasadena in 2025
The year 2025 is turning out to be a busy one for the Matu crew. The team opened Matu Kai on April 6 in Brentwood, and recently announced that a forthcoming casual Cheesesteaks by Matu will debut in Pasadena and Calabasas later this year. The new cheesesteak destination comes from restaurateur Jerry Greenberg, co-founder of the Sushi Nozawa Group, which owns Sugarfish, Nozawa Bar, and KazuNori, and the Original Hand Roll Bar. Sushi Nozawa's sister restaurants are HiHo Cheeseburger and UOVO. Matu (stylized as matū) first opened in Beverly Hills in 2021 with a tasting menu that centered on 100 percent grass-fed Wagyu beef. Staff started serving wagyu cheesesteak at the Beverly Hills location, which became a popular dish at both restaurants. At Cheesesteaks by Matu, the tema will serve two items: cheesesteaks and homemade potato chips. The Pasadena location on East Colorado Boulevard will debut in late fall, while the second will launch operations out of the Commons at Calabasas in the winter months. In a statement, the founders shared that the group was looking for a space to house HiHo Cheeseburger in Pasadena when it decided to place both restaurants on the same site. Once open, both Pasadena and Calabasas HiHo and Cheesesteaks by Matu will operate separately. BLVD Steak is open in Calabasas Commons In more Calabasas news, Sherman Oaks' popular BLVD Steak took over the shuttered Crossroads Kitchen space and opened in late June. Everything is the same, except the restaurant is open all day with a lunch menu that includes a burger, French dip sandwich, rack of ribs, salads, and sushi more suitable to daytime hours in Kardashian country.

Barcelona offered chance to sign Inter Milan defender after Inigo Martinez's Saudi Arabian exit
Pavard offered by agent Pini Zahavi Flick knows defender well from Bayern days Barca prioritising registrations over new signings Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Barca have reportedly been offered the chance to sign Inter defender Benjamin Pavard following the sudden departure of Inigo Martinez to Saudi Arabia. The Catalan giants are short of depth in central defence and, while the transfer window remains open until September, names are being floated their way. Pavard, who was previously on Barca's radar back in 2023, has re-emerged as a potential option after being put forward by his agent Pini Zahavi. THE BIGGER PICTURE Camp Nou's focus this summer has largely been on player registration and balancing finances rather than high-profile signings. The exits of Martinez and other squad players have left Flick's side thinner than expected in defence, but the board are reluctant to commit to another costly first-team arrival. Pavard fits the kind of versatile profile Barca could use, a centre-back comfortable on the right who can also slot in at full-back, yet his wages and similarity to existing players like Jules Kounde and Eric Garcia make the deal highly complicated. TELL ME MORE Pavard's name has resurfaced largely due to his strong links with Flick. The French international worked under the current Barca coach during their time together at Bayern Munich, where he became a key part of Flick's treble-winning squad. The defender himself is reportedly open to the move, having already rejected a lucrative contract from Saudi Arabia in favour of staying in Europe at the highest level. Zahavi, who also represents Robert Lewandowski and Flick, has actively pushed the player toward Barca, even holding meetings with president Joan Laporta. WHAT NEXT? With the squad effectively closed for the 2025-26 season, only a drastic change in circumstances would see Barca enter the market for Pavard. Flick would welcome the reinforcement, but Deco and the board lean towards promoting a young, left-footed centre-back through the reserve system instead of committing to an expensive first-team signing.
