Food Review/Giveaway: Family Dining at Michael’s Pizzeria – Long Beach | @TrueNaplesPizza

Did you know? At Michael’s Pizzeria, kids can roll out their own pizzas! This unique hands-on experience is complimentary for all families, and my kids loved it! As our kids were busy working on their pizzas (it’s always a bonus when our kids are entertained when we eat out), we were able to read over the menu at a comfortable pace. There’s something about kids being happy to eat what they create. After our server picked them up to bake, they soon came back with this. What do you think? (My kids gobbled them up!) Darren ordered their super fresh Salad Special which included local Farm Lot #59 mixed greens, … READ MORE >>

Alamitos Back Bay Long Beach

See ya, Summer, and, hello, Fall! Since it was the last day of summer I decided to plan a little get together to enjoy the day with some of our friends and their kids. Let me tell you about this little spot I’ve been coming to with my parents since I was a kid. My dad used to take us here when my brother and I were real little. This was a perfect location for our family, it allowed my dad to get his fishing in, and it offered an area for my brother and I to play in the water. Not only was this the perfect spot for our … READ MORE >>
