Rack of Lamb $26 Good, the same quality I can get at Cafe Beaujolais or Hermitage for half the price…
Ahi Tuna steak $26. It taste good in an ordinary way. It’s a French/Japanese fusion place (the chef is Japanese, why is there so many such Japanese chef French restaurants here in LA?). The place is too overprice, interior is plain (kinda ugly, with phallic-shape pottery all over…ummm ^^;;;), the menu is too ordinary, no foie gras escargot oyster! duh~~~
Include wine, tax and tips, final price is $72…we didn’t even have appertizer and dessert! -_-;

Uncle Bill’s Pancake House (Manhattan Beach)
//// By Freda in 17: South Bay
We went to this all-American breakfast place because it has a nice view to the ocean…unfortunately the ocean view is a bit nasty today. The cloud are muddy yellow hence the ocean is this scary greyish yellow color. Heavy smog completely blurred the horizon line. 🙁 This place seems to be a popular local hang out. Lot of couples with their dogs, moms with their young kids.
Sausage & Egg with Buttermilk Pancake $6.50 I don’t have much expectation from this kind of food, so I just ordered the most basic. It’s bland, but filling and satisfying. The Pancake and hash brown are quite nice. But the sausage…could be a lot better you know… Also I found that sausage + maple syrup is quite nice. 😀
Manhattan Omlette $8.5 Not mine. Too expensive for the type of food. Look wise it’s a bit…unpleasant because of the *green* rubbery texture avocado. ^^;; It has mushroom, tomato, bell pepper, onion and more with American cheese, I taste a bite and it’s…errr…odd.

Ebizo’s Skewer (Manhattan Beach)
//// By Freda in 17: South Bay
Japanese shabu shabu and yakitori place with a western flair. There are many little stove and pot stations for Japanese fondue at the counter.
Skewer set: Yakitori, bacon + banana $8 The banana is wrapped around by bacon. Good.
Shabu Shabu Burger, the sauce is wasabi + mayonnaise.
