Torrance

LA is a great city for experiencing the World Cup and all the revelry that goes with it. With the multitude of cultures that thrive in this melting pot, just about everyone has a country or team in the tournament that they can connect with.  Its no surprise then, that restaurants are showing their team spirit by backing the teams that match their menus.

On a recent visit to Old Town Torrance I came across a very impressive cigar shop. From the outside, Bo’s Cigar’s might look like any of the other quiet stores lining Satori Ave. One look inside, though, and its easy to see why Bo’s is not your average tobacco vendor.

This weekend is full of events that will please foodies all over town.  From LA, to the South Bay, to OC, there’s something for everyone!

You can find me eating with chopsticks at least once, maybe twice a week if not more often.  But just like many other cuisines, I sometimes get in a rut with Asian food.  The kids like Panda Express; Nicole has an affinity for PF Changs; and I enjoy a few local Thai places.  All of [...]

For the past couple months, Target stores in the South Bay have been shuffling stock from one part of the store to another, only to move it back a couple days later.  What’s all the fuss about?  They’re making room for groceries.

When couples make plans for Valentine’s Day, a romantic dinner is often the focus of their celebration.  Fortunately, there are many options for love-struck diners in the South Bay.  Here are just a few of them!

Ladies, Grab your mothers, girlfriends, and daughters and join the Daily Breeze and sponsors for a day of fashion, beauty, free health screenings, and fun!

Hello everyone! It’s Bianca from SouthBayRantsnRaves.com and I’m very excited to do a guest post right here on South Bay Foodies! The Little Debbie Cupcake Car came to Torrance yesterday and here’s my experience with them.

Hot on the heels of National Cupcake Day, Little Debbie is coming to town to give away some baked goodies for free.

Attention all foodies: a new Bevmo has emerged in the South Bay, and it is situated on PCH in Rolling Hills (just south of the PCH and Hawthorne intersection).  This location celebrated its opening in style, with a mega tasting event that benefited the Boys & Girls Club of the South Bay.

After visiting the new Melting Pot in Torrance on opening night, I was sold. Good food, great service, and a location that is just as much sexy as it is classy. Talking with the owner that night, I learned that the Pasadena location has a Girl’s Night Out special that comes around every now and [...]

Here’s a heads up from The Melting Pot’s Club Fondue. Celebrate the Inauguration with all you can eat Chocolate Fondue…yum!To mark this momentous occasion in our nation’s history, The Melting Pot of Pasadena and Torrance invites guests to celebrate the inauguration at both locations. To mark this great event, we have priced our 3-course dinners [...]

I came tonight for the grand opening and it was pretty busy! Set back from Hawthorne in a financial building (formerly the Comerica building), the restaurant is very nicely decorated with lots of booths for various sized groups and a row of intimate booths for parties of two. As a veteran of Melting Pot, I [...]
