Killer local hangout in Manhattan Beach. It seems like every time I go to this place it is the happening spot. Maybe it’s because they are a block from the pier in Manhattan Beach or maybe its because they serve great beer flights and craft beers but my guess is the reason this place is [...]

“”What more could you ask for when trying to get a causal lunch on the Newport Beach peninsula?” – What is wrong with this sentence? PS. Don’t critic a restaurant when you don’t know s**t about food. – Nick Thanks for this comment Nick. The thing wrong with the sentence written above is that when [...]

Warning: It only takes one bite at Shabu Shabu House to become highly addicted. That’s no joke people. Over the years of taking friends here, I have not yet had one person that didn’t love it or not return here on their own time. In fact, when people ask me where my favorite place to [...]

Short trip. Short post. I love rush hour so much on the 10 freeway because it gives me to the opportunity to get so pissed off that I get off the freeway every time and stop at a random food joint. Where to this time? Sabores De Oaxaca, the sign reads “Oaxaca Restaurant and Mexican [...]

Bear Flag Fish Co. eh….although I think your name sucks, I really enjoy your spot. When you walk towards the restaurant you’ll see California flags in the window (duh), umbrellas and benches outside, and happy lunch goers feasting on some fresh catch.

Oh the chicken…It’s just so damn good! Recommended by a buddy of mine and I never believed him but in the end, he was right. Versaille’s Cuban chicken will make your mouth water.

Hmmmm. I feel like I am supposed to follow the rest of the critics out there and give this place a 10! Ya, I am not going to do that. Sorry. I have come to realize that there are a lot of people that go to places and like them just because the restaurant has [...]
