Simply The Best Food

New for January 21: Restaurants serving take-out throughout the South Bay | Entertainment – The Beach Reporter

Restaurants throughout the South Bay have modified their businesses to accommodate dining while also meeting LA County Health Department mandates for controlling the spread of the coronavirus. Currently this means they can fill take-out and delivery orders. Other restaurants are closing temporarily while considering options and waiting for updates from city, state and county governments.

Women-owned restaurants all over Los Angeles have united to form dozens of collaborative events, one-of-a-kind menu specials and culinary conversations during the Regarding Her food festival, Jan. 21 through 30. Funds raised from the festival will be used to support and mentor growing establishments. All the ‘RE: Her’ events are virtual and the food is for take-out only. A full list of restaurants is on the website regardingherfood.com. In the South Bay, the following restaurants are participating:

Manhattan Beach-based Skechers Corp. has initiated a fund aimed at helping local restaurants survive in the wake of COVID-19-related closures. The company will match up to $500,000 in donations made to the fund. Distributions will help the restaurants pay rent, manage operating costs and keep people employed. To make a tax-deductible donation, go online to about.skechers.com/skechers-foundation. Or, write a check payable to the Skechers Foundation with “Save Our Restaurants” in the memo line. (Or, include a cover letter specifying that the funds are for “Save Our Restaurants.”) Mail the check to Robin Curren at Skechers, 225 Manhattan Beach Blvd., Manhattan Beach, CA 90206. Direct questions via email to [email protected].

The BeachLife music festival planners have created “Operation Smiles South Bay,” to help individuals and businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic. One aspect of the program offers assistance through the purchase of gift cards from selected restaurants, retailers and other small businesses. Requests for inclusion by a business can be made using the following link for Business Submissions: airtable.com/shr0vRQgjp31rGSCx.

A second aspect of Operation Smiles consists distributing the gift cards to deserving individuals who complete a ‘Wish List’ that is focused on, but not exclusive, to restaurant and hospitality workers. To access the Wish List, use the following link: airtable.com/shrrQUmaAW362V8eB.
