Corner Bakery in Manhattan Beach

I had takeout from the Corner Bakery today courtesy of my workplace.  It was quite nice.  I had the mozzarella and tomatoe sandwhich, and a rasberry bar.  Both were nicely presented.  I recommend you guys checking it out.

Crepe de la Crepe in Redondo Beach

Today I had brunch with a friend from out of town at Crepe de la Crepe in Redondo Beach.  I thought the prices reasonable for French food.  The food was good but I had tummy issues afterwards.  So, it  could be that I am not used to eating rich food. 

I ordered a vegetarian quiche with a side salad, and my friend got eggs bennedict.  We both demolished what was on our plates.  The service is rushed.  But we got what we ordered and were quite happy. 

I ordered hot tea and it came in a white teapot.  So, I give them marks for presentation.  The tea itself was so so.  

We ate outside and the restaurant itself was cute.

Hiwa Restaurant in Cerritos, CA

The food was good.  I ordered the barracuda fish entree.  It came with a huge fried fillet, mashed potatoes and vegi's.  Delish.  However, since I was at the restaurant with a huge group, the gratuity was added.  I gave a $20 bill and got $1 back.  So, I had dinner for $19. 

Little on the pricey side - but work checking out.

Tommy Bahamas in Plam Springs, CA

I hate the prices of Tommy Bahamas but their food is enjoyable.  I hate to say it.  I've never had a truly bad experience at this restaurant, but it is an expensive one.

The one in Palm Spring that I visited over the Memorial Day weekend met my expectations.  Check it out, and bring a wad of dough and you will not be disappointed.

American Fish Grill in Torrance, CA

There's a new fish grill in a strip mall in Torrance.  Despite it's location the food is delicious.  Though it is know for it's fish it also has organic chicken, and a roast beef entree.  I was pleasantly surprised.  I ordered the striped bass entree which came with creamed yams, an assortment of vegi's which were delish, and a hunk of bread grilled with butter.  Yummy.  Foodie Alert!

My entree was one of the most expensive at $15, but well worth the price.  If you are looking for good food, head down to this grill.
