If there is a new seafood restaurant in the Southbay, you should check out it is The Hamptons . The Hamptons is a casual Seafood restaurant located on Manhattan Ave. near Mama D’s. If you are a lobster fan, at The Hamptons, you are in luck. Recommended lobster dishes include the Lobster Mac n’ Cheese and the Lobster Roll. The Lobster Mac n Cheese is made with three delicious cheeses including: Mozzarella, Smoked Gouda, and Gruyere; and the Lobster Roll is a great choice and unique to The Hamptons. The inspiration for this dish comes from the restaurant “Lobster Roll” located in Long Island. If you are a fan of clams, management recommends the great flat belly clams, which are flown in directly from Boston to your plate twice a week! Hamptons also serves chicken dishes and filet mignon. There is something for everyone at The Hamptons and fresh food is a top piority.  They serve for the fresh, locally-grown food and do not serve foods that have been GMO modified. Don’t forget to check out thier “special menu” here!

Today is February 2, 2013. You know what that means right? Yes, it does mean we are 12 days off from Valentine’s Day, and yes it is Saturday. But what else does February 2 mean? It is Ground hog Day in the good ol’ Southbay!

According to German Folklore, when the Ground hog comes out of hibernation and see’s its’ shadow it will burrow again for six more weeks, which means the Winter will be longer. If the Groundhog doesn’t see its’ shadow, that means that Spring is around the corner. I know that furry, and awkward looking rodents don’t predict the weather, and I am not even sure they live in Manhattan Beach, but given the strange weather that the Southbay has been experiencing, it might be beneficial to pay attention to what the groundhog does. Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, and the surrounding areas have been experiencing a cold winter overall. The weather is starting to warm up, however Manhattan Locals are still strolling downtown Manhattan in North Face jackets and UGG boots , wondering when the signature Manhattan beach weather will start.

Whether the groundhog sees its’ shadow and burrows for six more weeks of Winter, or if it does not see its shadow and we dive in for Spring, one thing will be certain…. Manhattan Beach will have a wide variety of happenings and activities that you and your friends and family can enjoy for the month of February, including the Sway and Swing Dance club and Ski Week! The only scheduled event on groundhog day in Manhattan will be the closing reception for the JUNK Art Show at the Creative Art Center. Stay tuned to this blog for more on what is happening in the 90266, also visit the Dave Salzman  website and Facebook Page!
