Fluffy's Food Adventures Season 1 Episode 4 Long Beach

In Fluffy's Food Adventures season 1 episode 4, "Long Beach," comedian Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias goes on a culinary tour of Long Beach, California. From classic seafood to modern eats, Fluffy samples some of the city's best food offerings.

The episode begins with Fluffy meeting up with his friend, Chef Joel at Roe Seafood in downtown Long Beach. Chef Joel walks Fluffy through the process of how he prepares their famous fish tostada, and then Fluffy gets to try it for himself. Fluffy appreciates the freshness of the fish and the balance of flavors in the dish.

After that, Fluffy heads to Bigmista's BBQ in the heart of Long Beach. Bigmista's is a family-owned business that specializes in slow-cooked meat with unique homemade rubs and sauces. Fluffy tastes the brisket, pulled pork and ribs, and is blown away by the tender and juicy meat, which he says "melts in your mouth." He also gets a glimpse of the magic behind Bigmista's signature sauce, which he describes as "the boss of all sauces."

Next, Fluffy is off to the downtown area to try one of the most popular breakfast spots in Long Beach, the Breakfast Bar. At the Breakfast Bar, Fluffy gets to try their famous breakfast sandwich, which comes with a fried egg, sausage patty, bacon, cheddar cheese, and a housemade maple aioli, served on a brioche bun. He also tries their unique and delicious "Cinnamon Toast Crunch" waffles, which are topped with a sweet cinnamon butter glaze and cereal crunch. Fluffy describes the breakfast sandwich as "next-level" and the waffles as "life-changing."

Fluffy's next stop is at The Attic, a restaurant in Belmont Heights that serves up Southern-inspired cuisine with a contemporary twist. Fluffy is greeted by the owner, Steve, and his wife, and he starts off with the Crispy Fried Devils, which are stuffed jalapenos with chicken and cheese, wrapped in bacon and deep-fried. Fluffy also tries the "mac attack," a popular mac and cheese dish that comes with four different cheeses and a crispy breadcrumb topping. Fluffy loves the contrast between the crispy exterior and the gooey and decadent interior of both dishes.

After that, Fluffy visits The Crooked Duck, a gastropub in the heart of Long Beach, known for their craft beer and elevated pub fare. Fluffy starts off with their "Jameson candied bacon," which is bacon coated in brown sugar, chili flakes, and Jameson whiskey. He describes it as "bacon on steroids" and says it's some of the best bacon he's ever had. Fluffy also tries their famous Nashville hot chicken sandwich, which comes with coleslaw and a side of potato salad. Fluffy describes it as "spicy, crispy, and delicious."

Finally, Fluffy heads over to The Long Beach Creamery, a local ice cream shop that makes all of their flavors from scratch, using local and organic ingredients whenever possible. Fluffy tries their "Burnt Caramel" and "Pecan Praline" flavors, and says that the ice cream has a richness and creaminess that he's never experienced before.
