Today I was in Torrance. I was to meet the girlfriend at Christine for LUNCH. We had lunch early (around noon) because she had to make a mad dash back to to work as there were some execs coming to her office.

Christine is a two-level type restaurant. The chef, I believe, has been influenced by Mediterranean culture because this place is a slice straight out of Greece.

Anyway, we sat upstairs. We started with the crispy calamari with red onion remoulade. My girlfriend hates calamari so she had very little of this, leaving me to polish the rest off.

For the main course she opted for the Grilled Salmon which is served over a greek salad. This comes with with spinach, red onions, cucumber, tomatoes, kalamata olives, capers and feta cheese vinaigrette.
I settled for the Brick Flattened Chicken which comes with garlic mashed potatoes, sautéed spinach and red wine sauce.
We washed this delicious luncheon down with a glass of Retsina each.

After LUNCH I rushed to the deli to get some milk. We were out of milk.
