To be a successful hunter, it is helpful to know where the game are. Briefed on the habits of the particular game you are seeking, you will discover the times of the day they are most likely to be relatively inattentive and one of them is their watering hole.
Purely by accident, we stumbled on to one. As we have been happily together for 37 years, I had no need for this information, but some of you, girls, may find it useful. Disclaimer: in passing along this information, Management (me) is not responsible for any detrimental possible outcomes of actually trapping one, such as a social disease, unwanted pregnancy, a future stalker or escapee from a home for the greatly disturbed.
Grab a pencil - Sports Harbour, 5150 W. 190th Street, Torrance 424-383-1286.
It's not a big space, being about 2/3rds bar and 1/3 dining area which consists of low tables and lower benches, with bar stools and tall tables running down the back wall. Contained game is good game.
We looked around and I was surprised at the large number of hetero males in clumps having a great time. Richie estimated the ratio as one female per 8 to 10 males. If those aren't good odds, I don't know what are.
The food isn't bad either. We split an order of onion rings with our drinks which were a marvelous blend (somehow) of beer-batter puffy (despise) and crunchy. Richie had a grilled burrito with chicken ($9) and I the Reuben ($11) which came with skinny fries and two quarters of dill pickle. The sandwich was barely buttered so grilling it didn't turn it into a greasy mess. The thin slices of corned beef were fried and piled high and were amazingly tender. Mine could have used more sauerkraut but otherwise was just fine.
Considering the generous portions, it's an inexpensive and more than adequate meal. With drinks (dirty gin martini and three beers) the tab was $51.44.
Happy Hunting! And remember, you read it here so a wedding invite would not be totally out-of-order. But I don't have to bring a gift. You're walking down the aisle with it.
