Discovering Secret Restaurants Items with Off The Menu
ff The Menu Club is a membership club for discovering secret menu items from new and trending restaurants. Founder and CEO Lawrence Longo, along with co-founder Shay Mitchell, sit down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about some of the secret items members can enjoy, and just how the app works.
Longo explains that members have access one complimentary secret menu item per day at different restaurants around Los Angeles. He explains that every Sunday, seven new restaurants are released with seven new secret menu items.
Shay, who is known for her role on "Pretty Little Liars," also discusses why she decided to get involved with the app, which was basically all about her love for food. OTM Club is invite only, so you've gotta ask a friend who's in, or request an invite online. Longo also explains that a subscription to the OTM Club is $20/month. A portion of the proceeds go to feeding those in need.

The Federal Aviation Administration says flights departing for Los Angeles International Airport were halted briefly due to a staffing shortage at a Southern California air traffic facility. The FAA issued a temporary ground stop at one of the world’s busiest airports on Sunday morning soon after U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy predicted that travelers would see more flights delayed as the nation’s air traffic controllers work without pay during the federal government shutdown. The hold on planes taking off for LAX lasted an hour and 45 minutes and didn't appear to cause continued problems. The FAA said staffing shortages also delayed planes headed to Washington, Chicago and Newark, New Jersey on Sunday.
