We decided to have dinner at the Santa Cruz Brewing Company and Front Street Pub. With TC, having dinner anywhere else except at a brew pub is almost unheard of. Ting remembered one time when he embarked on a "brewpub tour" where he visited brewpubs across several states. The walls of the brewpub were lined with various historic pictures of Lighthouse Point, although the connection of the brewpub to Lighthouse Point escaped us. We chose a table with a good view of the stage, so we could check out the blues band playing that evening.

After dinner, we went by The Crepe Place for dessert. The Crepe Place was a popular bistro which served a variety of crepes, including both dinner and dessert crepes, as well as other non-crepe entrees. The place was packed when we got there, but we managed to squeeze into the last available table.
The ambiance in the bistro is reminiscent of a vintage diner, complete with hardwood furniture and festive etched tiles in the ceiling. Outside the Crepe Place, a cardboard cop holding a "Slow" sign was put up to remind pedestrians and skateboarders to slow down long enough to pop in.
