The Goodness Continues From The Strand House In Manhattan Beach

Strand House keeps the spirit of the holiday season going strong with its donation of 1,000 free meals to out-of-work restaurant workers.

MANHATTAN BEACH, CA — Close to 1,000 free holiday meals for a family of 4-6 people are making the holiday season a bit brighter for out-of-work restaurant workers who've suffered financially during the coronavirus pandemic thanks to the owner/partners of The Strand House in Downtown Manhattan Beach.

The packaged "to go" meal includes oven roasted turkey breast served with house-made gravy; old fashioned cornbread stuffing; buttery mashed potatoes; garlicky green beans; a winter salad with dried cranberries, pecans, feta cheese and a sherry shallot vinaigrette; and holiday bread pudding with cinnamon, caramelized apples, citrus soaked cranberries, and a whiskey butterscotch sauce.

Today and tomorrow from 8 a.m.-4 p.m., meal recipients will be picking up their boxed to-go meals in a drive-thru operation staffed by holly jolly Strand House staff festively dressed in the spirit of the season.
