Ok, so I know you’re probably tired of hearing about Thanksgiving. But if you could, please indulge in one more post reviewing the Thanksgiving buffet at Baleen in Redondo Beach. They also will have a Christmas one too if you don’t feel like cooking. Just saying. Read all about Baleen‘s buffet!
Hi readers! I have a lot going on at the moment. Aside from the Food Truck posts, which are backlogged, there won’t be any new restaurant posts for a little while. The recipe posts will continue, but restaurant posts will not be around until things straighten out over here. Thanks
I couldn’t think of a better way to wrap up my South Bay Food Fest adventures than with the Kogi BBQ truck. This truck has been around the longest & I wasn’t surprised that a line started forming 10 minutes before they opened. The line did move pretty quickly once they opened. They were serving a modified menu for the

First there’s Casa Pulido, a long time family owned Mexican restaurant that was used as the South Bay base for Ludo Bites America. However, when I went, it was all

It’s beginning to look a lot like… the holidays! That’s how I felt while I was making these muffins. When the scents of cinnamon and ginger fill the air, you really can’t help but be in a festive mood. For me, these were the most no fuss muffins that I’ve made so far. I just need to learn how to bake

Yes, yes I’m probably one of the last ones to try this truck. But the last time I saw it, the line was super crazy long, so will you forgive me? So I spotted the Nom Nom Truck at the SouthBay Food Fest with a fairly short line, so I had to go for it. As much as I wanted
