Manhattan Beach Creamery

After walking along Manhattan Beach, we went to get some ice cream from Manhattan Beach Creamery. I love this place because they had a lot of homemade ice cream, desserts, and candies. You could spend like an hour looking at all the delights they have! I sampled some of their original ice creams and thought that the Red Velvet Ice Cream was a unique one - it had bits of red velvet cake in it... They should make an ice cream sandwich of that flavor! I decided to get the Coconut Ice Cream. I missed that flavor and I was feeling tropical that day!

Fat Boy

On my cheat day I ate at Fat Boy located on 4425 Stewart St Suite 107 (corner of Stewart St & Lamb Blvd). It's a small fast food joint that serves hamburgers, pizzas, burritos, salads, smoothies (their syrups are homemade), milkshakes, and Mexican food:

Chencho Fries- a Fat Boy favorite! These fries are topped with salsa verde, grilled onions, chopped chicken, and melted cheese:

Pastrami Boyger- beef patty topped with pastrami, mustard, grilled onions, pickles and mayo. If you need a serious protein fix, this "boyger" is for you:

Fat Boy makes their meat patties daily and are never frozen. Toppings and vegetables are prepared as needed, and buns are delivered to the restaurant fresh daily. If you're feeling gluttonous, check out Fat Boy!

Flock & Fowl

If you're in the mood to eat a chicken dish, I highly recommend checking out Flock & Fowl. This restaurant specializes in making Hainanese Chicken Rice. It's a simple dish consisting of poached organic, free range chicken with marinated cucumbers and preserved mustard greens as seen in the photo below. You may dip the chicken in ginger scallion sauce, house made sambal (chile), and house made soy sauce for more flavor/kick (not pictured). Also, the sides to choose from are organic egg, Chinese sausage (lap cheung), chicken broth, or more chicken rice:

On the day we dined there, the Chicken & Poached Egg Congee was the special dish of the day. Congeeis a rice porridge that's common throughout Asian countries. It can be eaten plain, but usually comes with garnishes and sides:

We couldn't resist trying their steamed buns:

After I ate, I felt like I finished a home cooked meal, which is a rare feeling for me when eating at any restaurant. Keep in mind this …
