I'll be in the Torrance/Anaheim area... What is there to do in those area or along the way down from the bay? What's in Malibu? Not the party/club type and not looking the spend an arm and a leg. Will be down with the wife so something nice would be cool. Thanks!

Well I know its a stretch but how about like drinking lounges? There's Phase in Torrance which is a Japanese drinking lounge. In Anaheim, there isn't much except wander around and see all the mexicans at the block of orange. If you feel like going to LA, I suggest check out Edison Bar lounge or go to a semi upscale dinner at Velvet (dinner plate average is 20 per person).
