Zombee Donuts & Bakeshop
07.10.15
By Mimi Ngo
Zombee Donuts & Bakeshop sits cozily on the corner of E. Chapman Ave and N. Yale Ave in Fullerton. In that pink house-like establishment, you will find killer gourmet donuts that will eat your taste buds alive.
This family owned business offers unique donuts such as the Eyeball, a red velvet vanilla cake with a ganache donut hole and Cereal Killers which are topped with assorted cereal.
Zombee Donuts also offer a vegan donut which changes weekly. The vegan donut was fresh, slightly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. You’d never guess that it was vegan!
I also had the pleasure of trying the Death by Chocolate, but lived to tell about it. Despite the chocolate overload, it was not overly sweet which made this donut deliciously tolerable.
At Zombee Donuts, “walkers” are welcome six days. They are closed on Tuesdays.
802 E Chapman Ave. in Fullerton. 714.879.1078.

Saying Goodbye to Sababa and Hello to Better Chains
07.09.15
After a successful five-year run as one of Long Beach’s most popular places to dine, drink and mingle, Sababa Restaurant & Lounge at The Marketplace will close its doors for good on July 31. That means you have a few weeks left to enjoy Sababa’s signature dishes and menu of Mediterranean fare along with handcrafted cocktails and alfresco dining.
“This was a difficult decision for me,” says Rochman, who opened Sababa, which means “cool” in Hebrew, in 2010. “I’m in the process of securing jobs at other restaurants for as many of my employees as possible. Many of those who work here have become like family to me.”
Rochman, the father of four young boys, started a new company, Better Chains, which is growing faster than he imagined. The company has dozens of clients, from Long Beach to New York to Israel.
Better Chains is a cloud-based management tool designed to help restaurant and franchise owners streamline operations with simple solutions in a plug-n-play fashion. As a restaurateur Rochman saw the need for a suite of back office tools that could be turned on and off as needed. Focusing on multi-unit and franchise structures, the modules use a single dashboard view of all restaurant locations giving complete visibility of operations and real-time intelligence to the user no matter where they are accessed from.
Open 5 p.m. to midnight Tuesday to Thursday; until 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday; and 4 to 10 p.m. on Sunday until the end of the month.
Sababa is located next door to BevMo at The Marketplace in Long Beach where 2nd Street and Pacific Coast Highway meet. 562.252.3572
