South Shore Exterminating

When making plans for your evening, there always seems to be a bit of difficulty deciding where to have dinner and then where to have drinks. Make it a complete no-brainer by doing both at Long Beach's Auld Dubliner. This popular nightlife establishment has been putting smiles on the faces of its many visitors over the years as it offers the genuine charm of a classic Irish pub and restaurant. Of course you can find the traditional corned beef and cabbage and beef stew on the menu, but also you can feast on such treats as grilled salmon, salads, and an impressive selection of appetizers, entrees, and desserts. And of course, the wide selection of beers, ales and lagers is second to none!

Art is born out of both inspiration and reflection. A specific geographic area can inspire the creation of some truly amazing art as well as reflect the attitudes and feelings of a particular point in time. Nowhere is that more obvious than at Long Beach's Museum of Latin American Art. These works seem to come alive with both a dimensionality and a spiciness that gives them a personality all their own. The facility was founded in 1996 and holds the distinction of being the only museum of its kind in the United States.

See Alamitos Bay from a truly unique (and romantic) perspective when you tour the area from an authentic Italian gondola. Gondola Getaway makes this special tour possible, as they offer you and your sweetheart a chance to see the harbor and the bayfront from a memorable vantage point. To add an even more authentic touch, the gondolier will croon upon request. The tour also includes complimentary appetizers to make your excursion even more relaxing.

Putting on a show is not only an art, but in a sense, a science, too. It takes both talented performers and technical pros to pull off an excellent stage production. The International City Theatre has been doing just that in Long Beach since it began back in 1985. This award-winning, professional group is a non-profit entity that consistently delivers an appealing schedule of dramatic, comedic and musical entertainment throughout the year.
