You live in Torrance/Gardena/Beach Cities and you need to eat! Where do you go?? Here’s a quicklist of a few of my favorites in the Torrance/South Bay area.
Shinsengumi Hakata Ramen
Gardena, CA
Ramen cooked to your exact specifications in savory pork-flavored broth. You say you want it hard, thick and strong? Done.
Musha
Gardena, CA
A favorite. Izakaya style (Japanese tapas) dining. Favorite menu items: rib eye and stingray fin you grill at the table, cheese risotto served out of a gigantic wedge of cheese, and the sweet tofu/cracker dessert.
Original Pancake House
Redondo Beach, CA
My favorite breakfast place in the South Bay. Best eggs, best bacon, huge and amazing omelettes.
