Southern California Fires

You have to admit, we are pretty lucky here in Huntington Beach. Other than the smoke in the air (and some nasty Santa Ana winds), we did not have to endure what the residents of fire areas did. I'm sure there are pleny of us who have loved ones in the devestated areas. Our hearts go out to them. If you haven't seen all the photos out there of the damage, here are a sampling of photo clips. So very sad.

Tasty Italian in Huntington Beach

Enjoy Italian food? Try this out of the way little hole in the wall: Cafe Gazelle at 16041 Bolsa Chica (corner of Edinger) 846-2694. They have been open probably 4 months and we ventured in there for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. The fresh fish was delicious as was the pasta. It is a small place, nice intimate setting. Give them a try, I know we are looking forward to going back!

New Sushi Restaurant in Huntington Beach at 5 Points

The Huntington Beach Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting at a new sushi restaurant in Huntington Beach at 5 Points Plaza - Hashigo is the name and you won't be dissapointed if you go there! I've dined there a number of times already and it is consitently excellent. The sushi is fresh and cut right on the spot - where as some sushi restaurants pre-cut slices that sit in the chiller waiting to be ordered. Cutting on the spot keeps the fish fresher. The ambiance is very nice, has an upscale feeling to it, yet is casual enough to fit in to "Surf City". Stop by and tell Jimmy the owner hi. Tell him TheLocalHB sent you!

New Sushi Restaurant in Huntington Beach

We have a new sushi restaurant in town: Hashigo - located in 5 Points Plaza (18685 Main St.). If I had to describe this place in one word it would be WOW. The freshest sushi/sashimi. Unbelievable entrees, including the rib eye steak which has a delicious sauce to accompany this high quality tender beef. The Atmosphere is elegant yet still HB comfortable. The staff is pleasant and once you've been there, you feel like an instant regular. I highly recommend you give them a try!
