Stroll & Savor Wednesday: See You There!

Come sample food from Belmont Shore's restaurants and meet the Patch team in green.

Some of my favorite Belmont Shore evenings of the year are our Stroll & Savor nights dining along Second Street, where most every restaurant dishes out food for smaller servings and prices.

Wednesday and Thursday night, the tradition continues with more than 50 businesses serving up chow along Second Street in the heart of Belmont Shore. This year's two-night event, hosted by the Belmont Shore Business Assn.,will feature a few new arrivals to sample.

The deal: you buy a $10 book of 12 tickets, and visit whichever retaurant you already love or have been dying to try. (Last year, I tried Riley's food for the first time and discovered their yummy salads, and a pasta dish, for under $12, and  they were entree size).

Buying the tickets in advance is smart because you don't have to wait in any ticket lines the night of the Stroll. You can purchase them beforehand at Olives Gourmet, La Strada, We Olive, Mail Boxes etc. & Sweet Jill's. 

The evening starts at 5:30 p.m. and lasts until 9. You may purchase your ticket book out front of Chase Bank.

That's where Patch will be. Stop by and say hello to us: Belmont Shore-Naples Patch editor Nancy Wride, ad manager Travis Roznos and Southern California regional publisher Dan Krolczyk will be on hand to visit with readers old and new. If you aren't already a subscriber to the morning news letter (thousands are) we would love to have you on board. There will even be some luxurious Patch swag (okay, pens and frig magnets!).

The following establishments will be participating.

  *A.I., Aroma Di Roma, BJ’s Pizza & Grill, BouBouf, Chuck & Toby, Dogz, Domenicos, Frosted Cupcakery, Georges Greek Café, Jamba Juice, La Creperie Cafe, La Strada, Legends, Magic Lamp Grill, Lucille’s, Me Soo Hungry, Natraj Cuisine, New York Upper Crust, Olives Gourmet, Open Sesame, Paradis, Peets Coffee & Tea, Phuket Thai,  Powell’s Sweet Shop, Pussy & Pooch, Rileys, Rubios, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Roe restaurant & fish market, Shannons Bayshore, Simmzys, Super Mex, Sweet Jills, Taco Surf, Thai Gourmet, Venissimo Cheese, We Olive, Yen Sushi, Yogurtland.

The evening starts at 5:30 p.m. and lasts until 9. You may purchase your ticket book out front of Chase Bank.

Perhaps Ruehle should learn just a little more about all the things the Auditor's Office *does* do,Read More before whining and complaining about all of the things it doesn't. http://www.cityauditorlauradoud.com/office-of-the-auditor.shtml Beyond routinely identifying many areas of waste, fraud, and abuse in City government, the Auditor's office conducts a great deal of non audit-related services each year. Ruehle's comments seem to connote a belief that City Auditor Doud is somehow responsible for investigating and reporting on every bad decision the Council makes or every instance of questionable affiliation found throughout City government. She is not and even if she were, Long Beach taxpayers do not provide her with sufficient resources to do so. Despite that Ms. Doud is, herself, a citywide elected official, and despite her office's consistently excellent work-product, she can only fact-find and report her findings. Beyond her own office, she has no authority to mandate changes in the way other City officials conduct the people's business. Since her initial election in 2006, Ms. Doud's office has uncovered -and reported upon- millions and millions of dollars worth of fraud, waste, and abuse in City government. That's not sufficient for Ruehle who, despite all his complaints, will never consider running for that office himself and showing us all how much better *he* could do.

"...this article is saying that the fact that the city of Long Beach extorts millions ofRead More dollars from its residents in the form of RIDICULOUS parking tickets and charges outrageous fines for them is to be applauded?" No. There is actually nothing in this article that says that but please enjoy these lovely parting gifts.

What has City Auditor Laura Doud done since her re-election other than support anything wanted byRead More Foster & Delong. Maybe people should ask: 1. Why didn't Doud audit the city's transaction where city owned valuable port property was exchanged for swamp land? There certainly was enough controversy about the value of each asset. Wasn't it her job as the taxpayer's representative to look into it? 2. Why didn't Doud audit the amount of taxpayer's money used to support the 2nd & PCH project and the Home Depot project before that. The city was supposed to be compensated by the Developers for ALL of their costs, including meeting costs. However, that is NOT what happened. Millions of taxpayer's dollars where gifted to certain politically connected developers. 3. Why hasn't Doud audited the $1 dollar per year no-bid contracts of valuable city taxpayer owned ocean front property to the Long Beach Yacht Club, Alamitos Bay Yacht Club and other exclusive members only clubs for the wealthy and politically connected do determine what the value of an alternative use might be? 4. Why hasn't Doud audited the exclusive, no-bid, for-profit lease of city owned waterfront property to Steve Conley's and John Hancock's BANCAP company that has made those two men tremendously wealthy at the expense of Long Beach taxpayers? Doud started out with a bang when first elected. Since then, she has been a crony for anything Foster and DeLong related.
