There’s a quaint little no frill bakery located in Little Italy that’s worth the visit. One thing that irked me were the weird hours(closing early on Saturdays and not even open on Sundays)… being a full time student up at UCSD and working in Sorento Valley makes it hard to come down to Little Italy in [...]

Many a times have a been down in Little Italy and passed by this English pub surrounded by mostly Italian restaurants. Then I heard from a former coworker that this was a must visit place because of the fish and chips. I needed some de-stressing from finals on this particular trip so I brought Angie [...]

So I was checking out Kirk’s food blog(mmm-yoso) and came across a Vietnamese place in El Cajon named Nhuy-K. Funny thing, we didn’t end up eating at that place since we were driving along the Boulevard and say Saigon with a brightly colored neon sign and a packed house. We decided to ditch our previous [...]

Ok so usually a dinner with Leon and Dave within a 10 mile radius of Hillcrest is not complete without Leon suggesting a trip to Extraordinary Desserts and Ernie begrudgingly consenting to paying for an outrageously priced piece of cake because he knows it’ll make me happy. Michelle was with us this time since it [...]

Ok…so I’m not really into Mexican food which is blasphemous to Ernie and pretty much all my friends (Nhu-Chi upon hearing my comment of not being into Mexican: “How can you survive?”) Well, one day a few months ago Dave and Leon introduced us to this quaint cute little sit down Mexican joint in Hillcrest [...]

Niban is one of those restaurants that we frequent often. The food isn’t spectacular but neither is it bad and what keeps us coming is the good deal. The plaza that it is located in is pretty itself so parking can be a challenge at times. We usually get the same thing when we come [...]

For those of you who have been following this…I’ve added a few more categories in the ratings section that I’ll start to implement with this post.
Anyways, Brenda has never had dim sum before and I figure it’d be a nice way to treat her out for her 21st birthday. Again there were several other dim [...]

For long time I found the dim sum in San Diego to be quite disappointing. I was nearly on the verge of swearing off ever having dim sum in San Diego due to an experience in Emerald when one of the servers dropped a custard bun in front of us and tried to serve it [...]

I’m not the biggest fan of Mexican but I doesn’t mean that I’ll never eat it which is the impression Ernie has. We weren’t up for the Fresh Mex stuff which cut out Rubios and Chipotle so the next closest place was El Torito. I’ve never been to any other El Torito but the thing [...]
