Wonderful tasty small Japanese restaurant, I-naba in Torrance :)
Paul and I ended up having lunch there over the past few weeks during his jury duty. We kept going back again and again afterwards... Soooo good here.... Yummmmm....
We've known the name of this restaurant because of the free local Japanese magazine called Lighthouse. Frankly, I was never curious about even trying this place because of where it's located. It's right on the busy Hawthorne Blvd in a narrow parking lot with many old small businesses looking like they're just about to go out of business. The whole shopping strip mall looks very run down and depressed. Even the store front of I-naba blends into the location. But, since it was at a convenient location from the courthouse, we decided to try, and we ended up falling in love :)

We've been going to this newly opened Whole Foods in El Segundo. The store is laid out very nice... and it's huge!! They have coffee bar (you can get delicious organic coffee drinks for less than Starbucks), tea bar (they even serve Matcha, beautiful flower tea, Oolong tea, Herb tea... you name it!), seafood bar, wine bar (Hmmm... we have to try!), cafe where you can get Brazilian BBQ, Tacos, Asian Food.... and more!
