Thank you to SquareSpace for sponsoring this video! What trip to LA would be complete without a trip to the tallest view point in the city. This is at the Intercontinental hotel where Dan, Ivan and I got to enjoy a drink overlooking the city at Spiral 73, the tallest rooftop patio in the Northern Hemisphere... and it gets better too because just a few floors down, they have a buffet!
Actually I've been to this buffet a few years ago called the Dekkadance where they were serving up lobsters, king crab and an assortment of fresh seafood and meats grilled to your liking... my liking? with lots of butter, of course. Currently, they are back and are offering what's called the sparkling brunch. An elegant brunch buffet setting with the high end indulgent spread at a great price at only $50... This includes a glass of sparkling wine, mimosa, or whatever brunch type beverage you desire. What's missing? ...the fancy seafood, at least for now... Hopefully as things pick up, we'll see them return.
But no worries if you're craving seafood because I've to find out about a place that serves all you can eat fresh lobster right near by at Redondo Beach at the Perfect Storm. This is a big thanks to Steve Cha from @Rockstar Eater who introduced this just a short while ago and I gotta give it a try! Was it phenomenal? Yes! Was it expensive...yeah....
At $145, the lobster feast features all you can eat lobster plus delectable appetizers and sides to provide contrast to the dozens and dozens of lobsters! After all, one cannot live on lobster alone. Thank you for joining me on this LA adventure touring this exciting city!

You are amazing Tim ...you go all out to explain and video the buffets ...your voice is pleasant ...thank you for all you do
Thank you so much for your kind comment... Had lots of fun here 😃
You are such a kind soul, I’ve been binge watching all of your videos! I hope you never stop making videos lol
Thank you so much for your kind comment Taylor
The lobster place tries to fill you up on carbs before the lobsters come. Smart on their behalf.
If the food is good, eat and enjoy it. Don't need to think of going to buffet as "Beating the House or winning over buffet" Business need to make a profit inorder to stay in business so just enjoy as much as You like but don't be wasteful and force yourself to over eat "Expensive" items just to "Beat the House"
@@abcxyz6606 hell with that. I'm getting my money's worth.
@@denbronco44 Enjoy food you like to "get your moneys worth" is fine. But if You intentionally only go for Expensive Items or force Yourself to over eat, waste food than that's Fkd up. Business will be forced to Rise Prices, or Shut down, so Lose Lose for everyone.
Is that what You want?
And often time, just because certain food cost more, it doesn't even mean it taste good.
@@denbronco44 oh yeahhhhh I go for the seafood n meat
You go to a buffet resto to indulge yourself or mostly to overindulge, not because you want to beat the place on their game. You don't go to these places just to eat the bread, pasta, rice, corn, etc. You go for the main dish right away that make a lot of sense, like the more expensive seafood like lobster, shrimps, crab legs and steak or meat if available and if there is still space in your belly, then some deserts. These restos already got it figured out, there are big eaters and will be offset or balanced out by small eaters. These restos don't just fold because everybody is overeating and they all lose profits. Supply and demand is always the barometer of the price, so stop telling customers not to eat a lot of more expensive stuffs as long as they are not wasting them, they paid the price so let them overindulge themselves.
Wish there were more wait staff like Laz, friendly with a big smile and great service.
I love how kind you are to staff and cooks 💖🥰
You're a Superman Tim. To eat as many lobsters as you did in one sitting is remarkable. I hope you didn't get sick.
I love the way Laz announces the food with that sing song bit. He really wanted you to get your money’s worth. Great spot.👍🏻❤️
I love Laz's spirit and how he makes every dish he serves feel special :).
Thankyou for the video Tim! I'm partial to the one restaurant per video format, I feel like it gives us a better individual view and review of a place. However whichever way you choose to present your outings to us I know I'll stay intrigued regardless!
I agree. That's actually why I don't watch Mikey Chen's videos- I find them chaotic. Too many reviews going on at once and not enough focus on details. At least that's my opinion.
Tim...a man after my own heart. I've always said what's with the small dessert plates at a buffet? Like you did, I also pick up a dinner plate and do it right! Hope you enjoyed L.A. (hot as blazes right now).
I don't have a jealous bone in my body. However, I must have grown one while watching this video! I was literally jealous when you dipped that lobster in the salmon dip, and don't even mention those yummy looking mashed potatoes with lobster. Beautiful sky and delicious food. I love your videos. It is just something about you that makes me smile as I watch you eat and how you treat people. Stay kind Tim. MAD LOVE!!!
The lobster in the salmon dip turned me off, but the lobster in butter was perfection.
He ate the lobster with the mashed potatoes earlier in the video :). I agree with you on Tim's kind and genuine nature.
Great view, wonderful food. I was feasting with my eyes this morning. That salmon looked incredibly delicious.
Even more great food, in another spectacular location. Cheers, Tim and God Bless! ✌️🇨🇦
Great video! I moved to LA in 1992 and my first job was an auditor and the City of Redondo Beach was my first client. That all you can eat lobster place looked amazing, will have to check it out! I still don't believe that you can eat so much and stay so thin! And Dekkadance is yummy! It was our last restaurant outing before the pandemic...we drank a lot of mimosas that morning.
You are a accountant. My niece has a CPA and a MBA from the Wharton School. However, she is a New York girl so she would never move to California! I moved to LA, and my first job was selling diamonds and Chinese style 999 gold chains, bracelets etc. in a Chinatown jewelry store. I had a ton of sales experiences. However, I’m just a poor person, and know nothing about diamonds or gold. The biggest problem was the boss wasn’t happy with my honesty!! I would tell customers that certain style jewelry didn’t look good on them!!!!! Haha!!!!! I wasn’t being funny then as the reality is there are other jewelry styles that look good on them. Customers often ask sales people for their opinions just like Mr. Tim Lee ask the cooks for recommendations on what to order sometimes.
Wait till he gets over 50
@@passingthroughtime3033 he is over 50
Keeping us on our toes, Tim! So grateful to see you on a Thursday!
Those lobsters looked delicious. Nice food tour. Cheers!! Thanks and take care.
I enjoy your videos you have the best smile. I watching 2:30 in the morning. 😊
Hi Tim, I don’t know if you remember me, first time we met at the peace arch custom office late night to pay for out duties you were right after me and my family. When I look around me I see you there. It was so nice to see you in person. You are as nice a person as the CZcams that presents. Good job Tim!! Enjoy seeing your post!
You ended that fantastic meal on a memorable note for me. In the 50's, when I was a little girl, my dad used to always say to me: "Take a long walk on a short Pier" whenever I got on his nerves! LOL, Melaney from SoCal.
Your dad’s saying is hilarious! Gotta use that one when our sassy 6 year old kid starts to irritate us.
@@sbmal Do not teach little kids adults words to use on their classmates, haha!!!!
Well done, Tim! Wow! Any man who brings a dinner plate to a dessert buffet is a friend of mine!
That bagel sure looks like an English muffin hahaha 😆 good morning Tim
WOW how dare you assume that bread’s identity your privilege is showing
@@bigJ-Allday1 hahaha good one 😆
OMG the Grilled lobster and large shrimp looked absolutely delicious. You are very lucky! 👍🏻👍🏻♥️♥️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Absolutely grateful and humbled to be able to visit and share these experiences with everyone here 🙂
I did a search 30 minutes ago and here you are 12 minutes later with another great video 🥰⚘
You know how to live! That brunch and the lobster fest looked soooo delicious!
Thanks for sharing Tim! Can’t wait to check these two places out!! Just had dinner but watching this video made me hungry for more🤣
The Relondo beach buffet looks so good. But too many starches served in this buffet, filling up quickly. Love your LA videos lately!
Blue cheese stuffed olives in a martini is my FAVORITE ! Dirty Martini 🍸
I went to this amazing buffet before the pandemic. The LA night time skyline view is absolutely stunning at dinner time. The buffet is at Dekkadance in the Intercontinental Hotel at downtown LA across from 7th Street Metro Central Station.
You are so very lucky/blessed. 😊
Thank you so much for the info of the Resturant, you are very thoughtful !
I love dekkadance, good simple food, killer views and the service is alwys excellent. But the all you can eat lobster at Perfect Storm, not so, nothing exceptional and pricey. Keep up the good work Tim!
Wow Tim! All those delicious food for $50 buffet, good deal.
Wow, definitely impressed both meals. Spot on Tim!😉😀🧋
Thanks for another Delicious Video Tim. That truly was LOBSTER MANIA. Take Care of yourself. 🦞
That lobster and crab dip looked awesome!
It was pricey but highly recommend 😋
Those looked like English muffins not bagels 🤔
Everything looks great 👍🏻
Great review video. I love all your review of different restaurants around California and Las Vegas. Hope you have great and enjoyable time in LA and orang county. Have a safe trip ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thank you Tim for this delicious video. You have a lovely way of making your viewers feel like we’re there with you having dinner. 😊🇨🇦
Thank you very much Janet! It is such an honor and privilege to get to visit and share these places with everyone here. Thank you so much again 🙂
Tim is the king of buffets . The lobster and seafood looks good. The meat looks good. This place looks better than luxe .
This is a fun 2 in 1. It's true, you live and you learn when mixing different foods and flavors. But, there's plenty to make up for:) That omelet looks fantastic. We're releasing a Spanish Omelet short in a day or two that was crazy good. Oh my, that lobster meal is well worth the price! Sending Best Wishes and Blessings, James and Kim ❤️
I am so envious of your road trip adventures! Dying out of curiosity about your vehicle!
Hi Tim. So glad to see you at my hometown of Redondo Beach. My mom and sister still lives there, but I moved to Arizona 25 years ago. I never been at that restaurant before. We normally get our fresh seafood at Captain Kidd’s. Lisa and Bill did a video on Captain Kidd’s.
Shamelessly trying to fill you up on bread, potatoes, and pasta, while charging 145$ 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
$50 intercontinental hotel brunch. Ok. I see down in Redondo, $145
I always enjoy your videos Tim Lee, thank you.
Great video Tim 😄two buffets in one video 😯now that I think about it that lobster buffet from Dekkadance 3 years ago was a steal 🤯 grilled 🦞looks good at Perfect Storm but for that price I think I would have to go w/ the Nordic buffet 🤔 no more🦞😭
Tim! This is the ONLY time I am shocked at you 😆😆 !!
Creamy Salmon on a waffle!? What were you thinking? Haha!! 😆😂😂 I just laughed so much!
Love your videos.
Love your honesty in all your videos. When you don’t know something that’s on the menu or the buffet you say that.
The mistake about the salmon on the waffle, I love it. 😃
Note to self: Quit job and fly from NY to LA and eat buffet tomorrow.
All you can eat lobster feast? Don't eat anything else except lobster, and shrimps. Stay away from pasta, and all the other carb dishes, that's how they trick you in, by filling your stomach with stuff that is very cheap to make. Btw, nice video Tim, once again.
So yummy looking, the desserts so exquisite. That white Petit four is lovely 🌹. They do serve the wedding cake in Canada in little pieces don't they? I remember once my mother traveled for a wedding there and brought a little piece of cake home in a box
The rules are: no bread, no pasta, no potatoes (small crispy maybe) and no noodles. You especially know that to get your money's worth go for any king of seafood, (preferably king crab and blue swimmers). I like the way you leave room for sweets.
God bless you too TIM
THANK YOU FOR TELLING US ABOUT THE LOBSTER FEAST
Always enjoy Tim's food adventures.😅😅😅
Thank you so much! It was a nice find in the LA area😋
Tim, what a wonderful service from Laz! Great personality and takes care of his guest(s). That is what food service is all about. But geez..... the price of that lobster buffet is high. Hope you got your money's worth! By the way, you, David and I have to do collaboration at some point, Cheers!
Sounds good, always fun to eat together... Where are you located?
Woooo! Exciting!
Hope u enjoyed 💕🙏☀👍
Watching this loving all the food. Chill and laid back stay safe and enjoy your travels
Thank you Cecil 🙂
I also love how you improvise.
Tim: how much do you travel per month? How are you able to do video new video every couple of day to different place? Did you quit your full time job and is doing CZcams full time now?
Tim! You have a great memory! Cheers, Suzy
Lol, "let's get some steak.. and some veggies" cue putting the orchid garnish on the plate =)
I'm drooling over the lobster place.
An early screwdriver always fixes the job 🤪 Say's Tim
The light at the end of the spiraling tunnel 🤔
Sounds like an NDE experience
Tim without his Coca-Cola shirt is like Star Trek without their uniform 😳
Seafood is my favorite!Thanks for another great video
thank you Tim for such a nice long video. 🙂
Lobster mac and cheese, lobster mashed potatoes. Lobster tastes good with everything.
Tim you are making me wish. This looks
good. You should have kept that last one.
I would have taken it home. Nothing but
love for you.
🥰🥰🥰
Loved this vlog Tim. The AYCE lobster meal looked delicious!
Hi there Tim, how are you?
Two months ago I went to dinner at the Perfect Storm in Redondo Beach for all you can eat lobsters, it was delicious, I had a total of 7 lobsters, it was a great experience
Tim you really love lobster you ate a lot you had fun 😋 thanks for sharing my friend
Hey bro ! If not mistaken that bagel is an English muffin that I eat almost every day , I don't put lox and cream cheese on it though 😮 , I treat it as it were toast for breakfast with butter and jelly anyway thanks for sharing ! And yes I have to eat when you eat , otherwise I'd be starving watching you !!
Yeah, it was early in the morning and my senses haven't tuned in yet😉
He's such a gentleman. I would love to have lunch with him.
Sooo sorry I didn’t know about this place the last time I was in Redondo Beach. I ate at a crappy place on the Redondo pier. 😕 Next time . . .thanks for this info!! ❤️
Lobsters & martinis, a perfect pairing!
Wow. Very impressive. You and Steve. The Rock Star eater. Has got me convinced to go to The perfect Storm restaurant. For all you can eat lobster. Thanks for the video.
Next time you go to LA check out Manhattan Beach which has some amazing places to try near the pier.
Love the way you plate the food.
I've been practicing 😉
Good morning Tim! Thanks for the new video, looks yummy! I did want to take a moment to make sure to warn you about something. I notice you love to eat your salmon and tuna, that's wonderful and all, but because of high Mercury and other metal/compound content in fish these days, you should be sure to eat a lower amount of fish overall, or that is to say, not overload or have a lot every day, as it can be toxic. The USDA/FDA recommends about 8 ounces of seafood in general per week to maintain safe levels of metals and other toxins. Just a little helpful note my friend. Glad to see you are prospering! Keep it up!
7:45 interesting bagels 🤔must be canadian
Nice video Tim. All the food looked really nice!
love your choices of meals
Ty so much Tim, wasn't expecting a video on a Thursday 😆 I love Redondo Beach..haven't tried that place ,but it looks really good...❤ no coca cola shirt today 😏🤷♀️✌
FREE FOOD = GREAT REVIEWS
TIM ,this was a fantastic video ,thank you very much ,that lobster looked fantastic GOD BLESS YOU
Thank you so much Frank 🙂
@@TimLeeLetsGo thank you tim
Just wanted to point out English muffin with avocado and salmon both look delicious
You’re the king of buffet.
Great video again. TY, Tim
Lobster mashed potatoes taste so good 😋😋
I have to remember the AYCE lobster, my dad would probably demolish whatever record they have. Growing up we would go down to Baja and enjoy all the lobster we wanted for very cheap. Now because of over fishing I don’t think it would be possible to afford the 5 pound lobsters we used to enjoy. Thank you for making me aware of this restaurant, we live in Los Angeles but I feel like we don’t have enough time to explore it like we should.
Tim is The Guru 🙏🙏🙏
im up late and happened upon your 3 minute old video, watching it now!
Great place Tim but do you have be a hotel guest in order to go the brunch buffet?
Tim, put on a couple pounds Watching the breakfast video. Lobster in salmon dip...what a concept. Never too many lobsters...I think my personal best is 10 whole lobsters maybe 12. Over about 20 hours...Breakfast, lunch, late lunch, early dinner, dinner and midnight mid-rats shipboard. Every Friday. Best
Do you only eat 1 meal a day?
Can't believe it....'no more lobster'. Cheers to you. ...
The server Laz was really overdoing it with the lobsters.. Sometimes because of filming, there's a bit of extra attention 😉
Omg the way this guy eats makes me so hungry. Especially, what, he is eating as well. Looks so succulent!
That was quite a bit of food at the end .. 😃
You might wana head south county visiting San clemente,Laguna beach,Dana point,and San Diego.I used to surf down South county.Its a nice roadtrip down the Pacific coast highway.Lots of spanish buildings and really cool restaurants down the coast.There is an awesome authentic Japanese Ramen in Mira Mesa San Diego.The Chef is originally from Japan and he makes the best ramen and its loaded with toppings.Its called Menya Ultra.If you like Japanese BBQ try Gyu-Kaku in San Diego.Safe travels and fill up those stomach Brotha 🤙🏽
Just to clarify the drinks are separate, right?
Tim is the Asian Mr. Rogers. Like his content!!
I thought you would say after brunch I had to take a 😴 nap...lol..not work. Food looked amazing
A nap would have hit the spot as well 😃
After watching your buffet videos, i have started getting smaller portions to try more items.
00:15...The look on his face as he patiently waits for his lobster...😅
One of my favorite restaurants is on Topanga. It's a Mexican style restaurant but offers more as well. I think you'd love to visit to Topanga. I lived there and Marina Del Rey and Santa Monica for a little while and so many great places to eat in LA and surrounding areas. I love Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach. The next time I go home to visit I'll have to try the perfect storm. It looks great. I'm more of a crav legs type of person and don't like but the King crab legs so I'm kinda picky I can eat others I just prefer the taste over Dungeness and blue crab legs. I do like lobsters but mainly in soups or gently added to sides. I rarely see you eating clam chowder but it's also another favorite and steam shrimp. I'm from the south so too much fried seafood and I'm not a fan over stream or grilled. I also enjoy muscles, scallops and abalone but now it's hard to find abalone from over fishing which is unfortunate but glad it's heavily protected in the USA. Fresh abalone is the only way and it's one of my all time favorites from the sea. Love your videos and glad to see you eating dim sum because it's always a great meal with a great environment. Meeting people especially servers while out eating helps unlock great food places you'd never find and that's one thing I totally enjoy about you because you go beyond just learning their names and make bonds through breaking bread and it's lovely to see especially growing up in the food industry. Granted I've not worked in that industry for over 20 years but I made lifetime connections around the world. Love your energy and content. Best wishes!
