Seafood Friday 2018 - Week 3: Fuddruckers

After all these years, I can't believe we haven't tried their version of...

Phileas Foggs Bar & Restaurant

Our lunch was located on the northern end of the Sabre Springs Plaza strip mall which also houses HOB Coffee....

CAB, fresh from her trip from England thought we could try this place out...

Tropical Star Revisit

Last night TC was enjoying homecoming...

After dropping her off, it was time to do a revisit to Tropical Star!

Lunch @ Savoie

Our department had our annual planning meeting and later...

had a light lunch here at Savoie...

It really was a beautiful day to be out and about....

Ch-ch-changes...in North Park + Poke One n Half + Dark Horse & the Prince mural once again!

My sister called me up earlier today wanting to have lunch. TC was off early from practice so off to North Park we went. Apparently, there is a newish poke place there now..

My nephew drove and parked near this wall (the "North Park" mural on the side of a furniture store).

The blank slate straight ahead used to have street art on it...

Cameron's Seafood

Even though we could have walked here from our hotel,

we ended up driving. I'm not a fan of walking around an unfamiliar area at night, as safe as it could seem.  It was the beginning of the Lenten season and we chose this place for their seafood offering...

Zarco Cocina de Baja + return to Tartine

[Update - This place is now CLOSED. It didn't even last that long. As of 8/9/15, it is now known as 277 Cocina Artesanal]

A few Fridays ago,, Bert and I went to check out the fairly new Zarco Cocina de Baja in the heart of downtown Chula Vista.

Zarco is the latest incarnation of the former Indulge restaurant, which was also headed by Chef Flor Franco...

Gone were the swirled black and white awning which were replaced by the bold oxblood red of the new Zarco...

Cape Town

Last Friday TC and went to check out a fairly new restaurant up in Mira Mesa. It's in this strip mall east of the Pyramid on Miramar Road.

Just look for the flags and remember that's it's across from a golf course. It's a bit of a random place to put a South African restaurant...

but of course we were willing to drive up to give this place a shot..

Bert's Pre-Bday Lunch - Pacific Beach Fish Shop and Return to Pure Cupcakes

Bert's birthday was a few Monday's ago, but we celebrated it a day early by trying out a seafood place over in PB...

Last year it was Korean bbq and this year it was seafood...

Seafood Friday - Week 3

It's a Friday once again...and that means seafood...

But first...

Hodor!!!  Just a couple of the buttons I got from Whimsic Alley, coupled with the recent buzz that Kristian Nairn, the actor who plays Hodor is gay (yay! he has a following among bears) which was a nice surprise.

I didn't cook today and this was our first fast food fish item in a long long time...

Pre-Anniversary Lunch - The Fishery

Far from the many tattoo parlors, head shops, cheap clothing stores, and crowded sushi joints on Garnet is this gem of a restaurant...

Every anniversary, Bert usually requests seafood. After checking online and consulting a few friends for recommendations, we decided on The Fishery for our pre-anniversary lunch...

Seafood Friday #7 & 8

This was a first for me...

Last week's Seafood Friday post will be MIA...

More odds and endz...

Just a few random photos from the past month or so...

These were unusual flavored sodas I bought from the new Bev Mo last month - Pineapple Coconut Nutmeg (not a fan, I was), and a really intense blueberry soda.

I would have liked the fruit soda better without that nutmeg taste in my mouth...Ugh!
