re: Any Southern California residents want to help me plan a trip?

There's so many places in the "greater Los Angeles area" that I don't even know where to begin. So I'll start with a few suggestions while I gather my thoughts.
1. If you're looking for a good burger, and you like good beer, go to Father's Office. They have 2 locations: in Culver City and Santa Monica. The Office Burger is consistently on every top burger list, and their beer selection is phenomenal. Great place to hang out.
2. Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach are 2 of my favorite places to hang out. Both are relatively small beach towns, unlike Santa Monica. I find Hermosa to be a bit of a younger crowd with several bars and some restaurants if you're looking to roam the beach, eat and drink. Manhattan is a slightly more upscale version of Hermosa, with a slightly older crowd. Both beaches are great. I'd recommend checking both those places out just to explore. There are a lot of restaurant options at both so there's plenty to choose from.
I'll keep thinking and come back to this thread with some more suggestions.

Thanks
I spent some time in those areas when I worked there in 2008. Spent about 9 months right on the border of Torrance and Redondo Beach. I plan on visiting with one of my old friends in the Southbay that Friday, going to a concert at the Staples center Sat night, just trying to fill out Wed and Thurs since she'll be working during the week.

My only experience with Manhattan Beach has been at Rock n Fish. Busy place at night, and it is near the pier.
Much of what I know is down in Orange County, which can be 40 minutes or 2 hours away depending on the traffic and location. Newport Beach and Laguna Beach have some nice restaurants on or near the water. If you like asian cuisine, I would recommend finding a good Viet place either in LA or Orange County.
