Once upon a time, there was a little hello kitty who was celebrating her bear-thday. Although she was a kitty, she had friends and family were nice and sweet like teddy bears and they took her to Black Bear Diner for a bear-thday brunch! Upon entry, kitty was instantly presented with the “Black Bear Gazette.”…

It’s a savory Hello Kitty life!
Hello to one last meal @ Vince’s!
Back in April, I wrote a story for South Bay Foodies about Vince’s in Torrance closing their doors after four decades. When I first heard the news, I could not help be a bit sad. I have very fond memories of going to Vince’s with my family. It was always a treat to dine here…
Hello birthday celebration @ Addi’s Tandoor!
A couple months ago, thanks to my good friend and coworker, my mom and I got to try Addi’s Tandoor, an amazing Indian restaurant in Redondo Beach. I loved it so much that I shared my experience on South Bay Foodies, the food and travel website that I write for. I also made a note…
Hello Thai Original BBQ!
In all my various blogging adventures, the most special ones to me are the ones I get to share with my family and friends. Today was one of those special times as I got to celebrate a very special occasion, my mom’s birthday. We actually had different plans for the day but we accidentally found…
Hello Ko-Ryu Ramen!
It’s almost time for the “ber” months and what perfect way to prepare for those “brrrrr” err “ber” days than to find the places offering heartwarming ramen. One place offering such soup perfect for the upcoming cold days is Ko-Ryu in Torrance. It is a nice, cozy little Japanese ramen resto that offers a creative…

I was fascinated with the part of the episode where the chef demonstrated how to make what…
Hello Grand Opening of 2nd Lee’s Sandwiches in the South Bay!
It’s been almost a year since I went to the grand opening celebration of the very first Lee’s Sandwiches to open up in the South Bay in Torrance, California. I had a lot of fun during that event and so when I heard a second South Bay location was opening up, I made sure to…
Hello Tantalice Thai and American Diner!
Hockey and Thai food, two of my favorites. Who would’ve thought that I’d find two of my favorites when I recently dined at Tantalice Thai and American Diner. Tantalice is not your typical Thai restaurant. The moment one walks in, customers will notice a giant backdrop showcasing hockey players. This can easily be explained by…
Hello Ramen Yamadaya!
With 8 locations in California (San Francisco, Torrance, Culver City, Westwood, Costa Mesa, Sherman Oaks, San Diego and downtown San Diego) and over 600 yelp reviews (almost a 100 from my Yelp friends) in the location nearest me, it comes as a surprise that I’ve never tried Ramen Yamadaya till today. Yes, today was the…
Hello Brickworks Roasthouse & Grill!
Early this year I dined at Manhattan Village’s Brickworks Roasthoast and Grill. It was during the Lent season however and so I couldn’t eat many of their well known dishes. I wrote my Yelp review I was one “happy rabbit” with my wood grilled vegetable sandwich but I was definitely looking forward to trying out…
