Let’s Toast to Strong Communities + Boosted Immunities
03.18.20
Toast Kitchen + Bakery in Costa Mesa is stepping up in an effort to provide local families with easy and nutritious lunch/dinner ideas. John Park, the Executive Chef and Owner of Toast, is now offering his very own recipe of nutrient-dense beef bone broth available for take-out.
For just $12, guests will receive a quart of frozen bone brother in addition to a side of soy picked Korean radishes and three recipe cards so that they can create different variations of soup with the broth. The goal is to provide a simple homemade recipe with minimal ingredients and maximum nutrients. As you likely know, bone broth is rich in vitamins and nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus – and we all could use an extra immunity boost right now.
The recipes included are:
- -Sul Lung Tang (Korean Beef Bone Soup)
- -French Onion Soup
- -Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Vietnamese Lemongrass Soup)
Toast’s beef bone broth is the perfect homemade family meal as we work together in this time of solidarity and uncertainty. Give us a call at 949.873.5057 to place your order for pickup, and when you arrive, you can call again or wave us down and they will bring your order to your car! For more information on Toast Kitchen + Bakery and to see our full menu, please visit toastkitchenbakery.com
Open 8 a.m.- 9 p.m. Tuesday – Saturday; 8 a.m.-2 p.m. Sunday
Toast Kitchen + Bakery is at 1767 Newport Blvd. in Costa Mesa.

Hi-Time Open With Social Distancing
03.17.20
Hi-Time Wine Cellars will take the necessary steps to keep customers and staff safe during these times and is open with social distancing. They will also offer Pick Up Service for the foreseeable future (as well as delivery & shipping options).
Hi-Time asks that customers allow for a 24-hour window between the time the order is placed and picked up-- and also further requests that customers do not come to the store’s parking lot until they receive their invoice in their email inbox.
This is a new situation for the community, and Hi-Time is trying to responsibly provide their products to its’ patrons in the safest manner possible; we do ask that customers please be patient as we streamline this process.
Once a customer has received their emailed receipt (Note: they will receive an order confirmation once they’ve placed their order through hitimewine.net-- the RECEIPT will be the second email sent to customers), they can drive into the parking lot at 250 Ogle Street, Costa Mesa, CA 92627 and park in the front section (nearest to the building). Staff will be stationed in the parking lot to approach parked cars to identify the customer and pull their order. Hi-Time asks that customers please follow the staff’s directions. Identification (driver’s license, passport) will be required so staff can verify orders. *** Please note that phone orders will receive the receipt only via email and not a confirmation email.
For local deliveries, please use the Drizly app. Shipping is normally a one-day turnaround but these are not normal times.
This all may change as it’s put into practice so, again, Hi-Times requests that customers please be patient both with the store and the process.
Store hours will be: Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
250 Ogle St, Costa Mesa
