Roast of the Week 🔥

Some kid set off fireworks in Downtown Hermosa, and HBPD didn’t waste the opportunity to absolutely roast the guy.

I can’t decide if my favorite part is when they call him “Buddy” in the third line, or the fact that they chose Katy Perry’s “Firework” as the music for the post.

Or maybe the “bed & breakfast” comment.

It’s all too good.

A+ troll content.

Well done, HBPD.

Food 🌮

Holy crap, I found a hidden gem.

I was gonna hit up Mickey’s with a couple friends but when we got there, the line was out the door. I wasn’t down to wait.

So we popped over to the shop next door.

Empty restaurant. Sign falling down. Average food photos.

If you consider yourself a food connoisseur, you know those are signs of a diamond in the rough.

And it was extremely solid.

Korean food. Family business. Been there 9 years, but only have 36 reviews.

They make everything fresh, so be prepared to wait (it took 25 minutes to get our food and we were the only ones there).

But it was totally worth it.

Pacific Rim — we will be back.

Local Business Spotlight 💡

New clothes are so last year.

Get yourself something unique — something with character.

And you might be like, “Where the heck do I find that?”

All the boring stores I normally shop at only have brand new clothes that look and feel like everyone else’s clothes…ewww.

Look no further than Vintage Dirty Laundry.

Make a statement this summer.

Be the fly lookin’ guy or the girl with a twirl.

Also, their IG account is a vibe.

Know someone who runs a local business in the South Bay? We’d love to feature them. Reply to this email & give me some backstory.

Yes, I’m a real person & yes I read the emails you send me
