Scott & Gina Lee have been my dear friends for many many years. They opened Gina Lee’s Bistro, an Asian Fusion restaurant in Redondo Beach, over a decade ago. A while back I offered to help Gina start a blog so on this night I took some photos of the food as it was leaving the kitchen.
For dinner, I enjoyed the Thai Marinated Sea Bass paired brilliantly with a glass of Etude Pinot Gris from Scott’s eclectic wine list.
Irene Virbila from the Los Angeles Times wrote, “Everything from Gina Lee’s kitchen tastes fresh and vivid. There’s also a logic to how flavors are woven together.”
I couldn’t agree more. The flavors are just so vibrant…
When you are in Southern California, I recommend a visit to Redondo Beach to have dinner at my friends’ fabulous and unique restaurant. And be sure to tell them Lori Lynn sent you

Sea bass for me too, please…
Hi Simona – they have so many great fish dishes, I also love the whole crispy catfish with ponzu.
Oh everything looks delicious. Lori Lynn, I was thinking of you yesterday. Barilla is having a photo contest on table settings. You are so good at this you should enter. Go to their site and check it out. The winner gets a 500 gift certificate at Williams Sonoma
Maryann – thanks for thinking of me!!!
I will definitely check out the table setting contest. It used to be my hobby. I would compete in the table setting competition every year at the Los Angeles County Fair until one year I was disqualified! My gorgeous entry of a Valentine’s table set in BED (with rose petals and Champagne and caviar) was too much for the judges, oh my!
Now, I am content to set the table in my home for guests, and I sure have plenty of accessories!
Thank you so much, can’t wait to look into it!
A very nice blog. I stoppped and read on and on. worth time spent.
What a beautiful array of food here! Intense colors, flavors, and freshness really speak to me in your photo’s! Lucky you, to have friends so talented! I would take Maryann’s advice you would be perfect for that contest Lori Lynn!
Oh my goodness, heaven help me get over this ugly food-envy! I know I would enjoy every single morsel of all of these fabulous temptations.
Please think a fraction of a moment of me here, no such food anywhere in sight. I may book myself on a flight ….. *help*
