We See You, Da Hawaiian Kitchen! – Newport Beach
After dining by Newport Pier last weekend, we took a quick stroll through the neighborhood. Two things caught our attention: Taco Bell Cantina and signage directly across from it advertising the next location of Da Hawaiian Kitchen. Huntington Beach residents already know the family-owned and operated eatery well. Known for sourcing ingredients from Hawaii and serving breakfast all day, more of the county can get to know their chili peppa chicken this spring. We can’t wait to say Aloha to them! www.dahawaiiankitchen.com.

Knott’s Peanuts Celebration – Buena Park
Good grief! The gang at our favorite affordable theme park is ready to celebrate, Peanuts style. Every weekend through February 25th is packed with activities. From a Pig Pen-hosted petting zoo to live-action shows, fans young and old will have a grand time. Our favorite places were anywhere with a photo op (Hint: Some of the best ones are just beyond the turnstiles as you enter.). Also, on February 4, they’re celebrating Charlie Brown Day with the biggest meet up photo. Sport his signature yellow and black motif and join in. Oh, and if you’ve got a sweet tooth, be sure to chow down on a Charlie Brownie. Yes, it exists. 8039 Beach Blvd., (714) 220-5200; www.knotts.com.

The Kebab Shop Planting Roots in Irvine
After taking advantage of the Rubio’s deal last week, we came across new signage in Harvard/Main plaza for The Kebab Shop. Originating in San Diego since 2007, this Mediterranean comfort food brand is not only launching in Irvine, they’re doing it twice! The other spot is opening soon down the street from Irvine Spectrum. We are definitely looking forward to those savory kebab wraps. And hey, if Puesto can successfully launch twice in one city, more power to Kebab Shop. www.thekebabshop.com.
