SCF:Name your favorite place to get breakfast.

SCF: Best place dining out for a special occasion?
OO: “MATSU Japanese restaurant Beach/Talbert. Such a comfortable relaxed atmosphere with great food!”
SCF: I’ve never been there, I’ll have to check it out and tell them Olivia sent me.

SCF: We have lots of parks here in Huntington Beach, which one’s your favorite? And which is your favorite beach?
OO: “Dog park at Cental Park off Edwards because I love seeing local dogs play around and the pond there is so peaceful. The beach area I love is Huntington Beach (City Beach) by the pier, it’s where the action is!! It’s so much fun and always something going on! It’s a very special place!”
