Stop 4 - Coronado Brewing Company, Imperial Beach

After all that good Mexican food, we needed (heh heh) something to soak it all up...

Barely a few weeks old, the newest location of Coronado Brewing Company in IB was our next stop of the day...

Return to Lezzet

I almost missed this one last "date night" from a few months ago...

This is near National City Blvd and 8th...If you make a right at the condo high rises you will hit Big Ben Specialty Market and to the left on "A" Avenue is Neiderfranks...

That particular evening, we took Main which is parallel to the 5...

Julian bound, but first, Ass Kickin' Jerky @ Pam's Place

Last week we headed out to Julian on Veteran's Day. This is somewhere along the 8 near Alpine...

See the clouds? They were nonexisted right when we got to the 79...

In fact it was quite sunny and beautiful  while in Julian. On our way out, it was another story....

Stop 3 - La Palapa Nayarit

If you head west from the Mariscos Isaac taco truck, you will pass by and feel the soothing and refreshing water droplets sprayed from the $3 car wash place...

on your right will be this tiny corner eatery...

Remember this sign from OB?

What exactly is a snowy plover you ask?

After our fab but early dinner at Gunco, I convinced Bert to give Wow Wow Waffle a shot...

and I also had something else to "sweeten the deal"...

Guncotton? Gunco Ramen once more...

Last night I didn't feel like cooking and TC was craving Japanese food so...

we went to Guncotton  Gun Could, Gunco....

Stop 2 - Mariscos Isaac taco truck (new location)

We headed north on Coronado and hung a right on 18th. If you are taking the 5 South, you can make a right on Palm and a left on 18th. Just look for the Bobar 2 Liquor sign...

You're welcome...Yes, this is the newest location of the Mariscos Isaac taco truck which used to be located at the South Bay Lounge parking lot a few blocks west...

This is another place that I pass by every weekend and I thought it would be fun to give it a try with the group...

Another epic South Bay Food Crawl: Stop 1 - Birria Fernandez

Our first stop was a place I'd heard about and pass by every week. It's kind of hidden but..

it's really not that hard to find. Birria Fernandez is right off the 5 South off ramp to Coronado Ave...

Julian Highlights

Yesterday I had the day off for Veterans Day, which meant I had to work on Monday, take the day off on the 11th, then return to work on Wednesday.  It was a bit lame that we couldn't just get a three day weekend, but hey, I'm just glad I got the day off...

TC wanted to go to Julian again, and it seems that this is now our "tradition" during Veterans day...Here are just a few highlights of our trip...

Full fledged posts will follow....

Ironically, while the rest of San Diego was experiencing gloomy and cloudy gray skies, it was quite clear and sunny in the mountains...
