Looking for Saturday Morning Farmers Market in the LAX/Seal Beach Area
Driving a couple miles south of LAX on Aviation Blvd. and 135th Street is the Del Aire Farmers Market on the Da Vinci High School parking lot. They are open from 9-1 on Saturday. They have an Asian Vegetable Grower there.
You could get on the freeway at Rosecrans Ave. and head down the 405 to Seal Beach.

Palos Verdes B-day meal Question
Locals really love the Admiral Risty, in Rancho Palos Verdes, for the fresh seafood. You won't have to leave the hill for dinner. 1960s nautical decor and great sunsets.

Torrance / South Bay Area Local Gems please
Gina Lee's Bistro in Redondo Beach for a nice dinner out. Located in a strip mall on Palos Verdes Blvd. in Riviera Village, but don't be fooled by the exterior. Very friendly owners and good quality for the price. Seafood is excellent, but they have Asian/American food as well.
Reservations needed on weekends.

How is Pann's?
The fried chicken is better at Pann's than at Dinah's, and I've been to both many times over the years. Easy to get to, in the Ladera Heights area, when taking La Cienega to the 405 south.
