This post includes two visits to a relatively new spot in South San Diego...

in my old neighborhood where I grew up...

This time focusing on our "go-to" Japanese haunts in the South Bay...

craving some sushi from Naruto (which replaced the former Kaga Sushi)...

Bert had a craving for Japanese food...

Phuong Trang revisits + Angels & Hearts with the sis

I guess this is the week of resurrecting old posts in the queu and having them see the light of day...

Sometime last year, TC and I were in the area and decided to stop by Phuong Trang...

Sabuku Sushi

It was the day before Valentine's and we just enjoyed our coffee mocktails a few doors down at Hawthorn...

After waking past this painted utility box, we looked to the right...

and thought we would stop in for a few rolls...

Seafood Friday #6 - Sushi House + dessert from Nestle Toll House

The day I was waiting for, the day that I go on Spring Break!

I was getting so antsy and now it's here...it's here (insert maniacal laughter).

Bert and I had some time to kill since TC was still at track practice so we went to Sushi House on Telegraph...

Coronado Sunset+ dinner at Meijo

We'd been experiencing a heatwave this past week with clear skies...

that we thought we'd try to catch the sunset across the bay.

Kawaii Sushi

In looking at some of my older photo file folders, I found one place I had almost forgotten, Kawaii Sushi...

It's in this busy strip mall on Mission Gorge Road...

The same one with Donut Panic (the sign has since been updated to reflect the name change) and the new Purple Mint...

Kula Revolving Sushi Bar and return to Blush

During the Thanksgiving Break, I took TC and one of her school friends here...

Special request...

Izakaya Naruto

About two weeks ago, Bert and I wanted to have dinner at the new sushi place that replaced Kaga Sushi on the corner of Oxford and Third.

This is the same center that houses Utage and Hogetsu. Kaga Sushi had been there for years (please see Kirk's post listed at the end) and had closed down earlier this year.  When I saw the new yellow sign last month, I did a double take and I knew we had to go here eventually.

Unfortunately, we saw this sign...($%#@&!!!!!)

and made the mental note to return in several weeks.  That return happened to be today after picking up the teen from school...

It's been such a long time...Baja Oyster Bar

Has it really been that long?

Four years it's been...

Return to Junz, Holsem Coffee, Kanpai, McD's, Jochi Resto Grill & TJ Oyster Bar 2

On our way to Junz in North Park...

we saw this painted roll up door on a side street...

Truer words were never spoken...

Lunch at Kanpai & drinks at Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf

During Spring Break, TC and I went to one of our favorite places...

located at the corner of Third and Palomar in west Chula Vista, good ole Kanpai...

Return to Papa Luna's & Junz

After getting coffee from Ladies & Gentlemen, TC and I headed over to go thrift store shopping on Garnet...

visiting Goodwill, Thrift Trader and Buffalo Exchange all within walking distance...
