This month we are going to Hermosa Beach, specifically Fritto Misto. This Pier Avenue locale was named the best lower priced Italian restaurant in the South Bay beach cities by Easy Reader Magazine and is quite popular with the locals. You can build your own pasta or get one of their specialty dishes. I really liked their cheese stuffed gnocchi with spinach and artichokes. The restaurant is at 316 Pier Avenue only three blocks from the beach. RSVP to Kedem Har-Shalom at kedem524@yahoo.com or (805) 330-1731 if you plan on coming. (Coast)
