SD Goes 3 For 3
I went down to San Diego to visit a friend. I left it up to the San Diegans that I traveled with to decide on where to go and eat. It was shaky at first, but each place was well worth it. So, thanks Sooj and Albert for the awesome picks.
Hodad’s | Out in OB, when we finally got down here (traffic sucked to the max) we saw the line. Lines, I suppose, are a good thing because it shows that the place is doing something right. We decided to skip dining in to skip the long line and ordered to-go. However, ordering to-go seemed to take just as long as waiting to be seated. I’ve never waited so long for a stinking cheeseburger. When we finally did get it, it was pretty good. It was super thick, but only because they sliced their tomatoes and onions thick. I applaud their optical illusion, but I saw right through it. Nonetheless, it is a good burger. Oddly enough, what stood out to me the most were the pickles they used. I’ve never enjoyed pickles inside my burgers, but these were really good. Onion rings were not special, FYI (supposed to be their house special or something). I would come back sans line.
The Living Room | This coffee shop is right by the La Jolla cave, and I only got their coffee, but dang was it good. That’s all.
Phil’s BBQ | So much hype going in, but I kept telling myself, “If it’s tasty, it’s tasty”. So, was it? Yes. I ordered a half rack of the baby back ribs (still full from Hodad’s) and I enjoyed it. There was a line, but it went by quick.
Thanks SD.
