Le Shrimp Noodle’s Happy Hour

11.04.22

Le Shrimp Noodle Bar's HAPPY HOUR means 30 percent off any bowl of noodle soup from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The popular sister concept to Paradise Dynasty specializes in shrimp noodle soup made from simmering shrimp, chicken, and Chinese aromatics and spices for more than 8 hours, resulting in a rich and umami-packed broth perfect for shrimp lovers! 

Guests can select from 3 different noodle options including silky rice vermicelli noodles, craft ramen noodles and rice noodles. Toppings include an array of shrimp-centric items, from whole prawns to minced prawn meatballs and handmade prawn wontons, but also some non-shrimp toppings like crispy chicken and even VEGAN noodle soups! 

Le Shrimp Noodle Bar at South Coast Plaza is at 3333 Bristol Street, BLM 5, Collage Food Hall in Bloomingdale's (lower level) in Costa Mesa 714.884.4693.

11.02.22

Segerstrom Center for the Arts presents Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Mavis Staples, with special guest, vocalist, pianist, and songwriter Kandace Springs for one performance only, Friday, December 9, 2022, at 8 p.m. at Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. Mavis returns to Orange County with her incomparable gospel singing and an array of her most reputable songs spanning from the Civil Rights era to some present-day classics. Kandace Springs will open for Mavis with the voice that Prince describes as “a voice that could melt snow.” 

Staples’ achievements as both a gospel music pioneer and civil rights activist include a National Arts Awards Lifetime Achievement award, a Kennedy Center honor, and a Grammy. She marched with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., performed at John F. Kennedy’s inauguration, ,sang in Barack Obama’s White House, and has collaborated with musical icons such as Prince, Bob Dylan, Arcade Fire and Hozier. At 82 years old, Staples is not winding down from her music career, collaborating with singer-songwriter Ben Harper on her latest studio album “We Get By” which was chosen as a ‘Favorite Blues Album’ by ALLMUSIC. Hailed by NPR as “one of America’s defining voices of freedom and peace,” Staples doesn’t just write songs, she creates emotionally uplifting tracks that audiences are bound to fall in love with.

Singer, songwriter, and pianist Kandace Springs is known for her unique blending of soul, jazz, and pop genres, making her the perfect opener for Mavis Staples. Her latest album, “The Women Who Raised Me” features renditions of songs by some of history's most iconic vocalists including Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and Carmen McRae. Like Staples, her music appeals to young and old listeners alike. She believes that music can touch people, spread a message, and keep the world sane. 

Single tickets for Mavis Staples and Kandace Springs at Segerstrom Center for the Arts start at $39 and are now available online at SCFTA.org, at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa, or by calling (714) 556-2787.
