Ha!
You sure it's not too much westerly exposure on that corner office @2550?

Too much sparkle reflecting off the glass from the bayfront?

Sledge or Treb..
Since you lived or live now in San Diego, you should know that the best corn is from the famous farm stand in the Rancho Santa Fe area called Chino's.

My psychic vibe says you're still here in SD. .never left!

Love El Especial and I like to swing by afterwards to the infamous dive bar, Leucadian..what a riot, that place is!

I was in a remote part of Catalina Island, couple of years ago with friends on a boat at Two Harbors and there was the bartender, with his fancy boat and we both recognized each other, tho' I've only been a couple of times but I had to laugh for one, of all the places remotely in the world to see him and second, he had a gorgeous boat, that was really nice..

That's what makes it so frustrating is that they are easy peasy to make and a small Mom and Pop Donut place could crank those little love bombs out and really bring a little bit of the islands, to SD.

For me, a fab cheese plate with some figs, nuts and crusty bread is lovely.
I like a good port but its not mandatory.
I have a thing for crème brulee too.

Thanks OC and set!

Going with friends for a long weekend in a couple of weeks and we see that Taco Maria on Saturday night, has the prix fixe menu only..but it is a must try...hear that the brunch isn't all that.
Staying in Newport.

Would love a Thai or Vietnamese place in Garden Grove area.

Back in the day, after seeing relatives in Lido/Balboa, we'd hit up Woody's Wharf and then dance it off at the Rueben E. Lee...LOL

I've had some great chowder at The Fish Market oyster bar..
Love a seafood chowder and the one I wish I could find from Seattle @ Pike Place Chowder...jonesing so bad for it that I'm gonna order on-line, to have it shipped to me!

Yum...that sounds good.
Islanders love that plum crack seed stuff..
Its like the Taijin of the islands.

Beach Chick commented 7 years ago

Heading out for a long weekend in Newport Beach..
Road Tripping in from San Diego.
What's not to miss for breakfast/lunch/dinner?
Taco Maria is on the list for dinner and Love Break of Dawn for breakfast.

Thanks!

You can eat at the Fox Den Cantina & Bar, at the resort, which is such a lovely place and hasn't really changed in years..
Great cocktails, apps and food.

Love the vibe and we were flying out the morning of 9/11 to Paris for bday/anniversary and since no one was flying anywhere, we went to La Casa de Zorro for several days of reflection on the world and it was the perfect place to energize the soul and reflect on life and humanity..

I will forever be grateful to the resort.

Namaste

Love dining at Casa de Zorro resort.

I'll give our Grammy award Mayor, Steve Vaus a call and find out what the hell is going on...

Anyone remember Clay's BBQ on LJ Blvd?
Still love going into Jalisco's Café in Imperial Beach and El Juan's in National City.
What is the name of the Fish Fry place out by Jacumba, on the way to Tecate?

Beach Chick commented 7 years ago

Is that off Community rd, near Randy Jones old place?
With all the NFL and Baseball players living in Poway, one of them should buy that location and rehab into the glory it once was!

This is what may be the issue..mold and bacteria..

Nothing like a Mex breakfast of frijoles, avocado, scrambled eggs, jalapenos and wrapped up in a fresh warm flour tortillas, pat of butter, with kick ass taqueria hot sauce and a cold Pacifico!

In Australia, I've seen a small side of pinto beans and a half baked tomato which I make at home for breakfast in San Diego.

Love my French Press but what a pain in the arse it is to clean, so last month, bought a Aero Press and WOW!! Love how good the coffee taste and so easy to clean!

Highly recommend the Aero Press!

Just seeing this..
So sad and as long time friend and fan of The Fish Market, hope that restoration takes little time to open up for 4th of July weekend.

Love Ross Grill...view, food and service are great!

'Bad news for Beach Chick. Hopefully she will adapt and Su Casa can pick up the Nacho slack.'

LOVE that deckape!
Hopefully, I can adapt but don't know if Su Casa can pick up that Nacho slack tho'.

In regards to Alfonso moving operations to Hillcrest, IMO, I don't feel that locale is best for him...if he went outside the 8 mile sphere, east bound and down, he would have cheaper rents, less competition and be better received, demographically.

Just my two aloha cents.

Booked the Inn at Sea Island and got the last room for the long holiday weekend...saved me $400 a night vs the Cloister's!

Can't wait to eat, drink and see the islands..
Thanks so much!

We did a tour of Stonehenge, along with Salisbury with the key, being inside of the rocks...which is, IMO, the only way to go..met at Kings Cross.
It was reasonable in cost vs doing it on our own.

Had a pint and some pub food at the Red Lion, in Salisbury.

Would of loved to have dined at The Red Lion in East Chisenbury.

Let's not forget about Huggy Bear...Boss Hogg, and super hot chica, Angie Dickerson, of Police woman.

BTW, I ride motocross and I couldn't think of a nicer group of guys to hang with and would love for them to wait on me but its usually me getting the beers/food and loving every minute of it!
