UPDATE 1:55pm | Of this week’s two nights of Stroll and Savor in Belmont Shore, Thursday night was by far the busiest. Officials said they sold out of tickets — all 70,000 of them.

9:45am | Last night’s Stroll and Savor packed the sidewalks of Belmont Shore in Long Beach with crowds of people enjoying the night and diverse fare from the business corridors’s many eateries. 

Take a trip with me as I stroll the Second Street strip during the Thursday, July 21, Stroll and Savor. 

The next Belmont Shore Stroll and Savor will be held Aug. 17 and 18. Visit BelmontShore.org for additional information.
