31. December 2012: Restaurant La Villa

When walking around in Little Italy, I passed several restaurants and La Villa just persuaded me from the outside – and well, it was also quite persuasive on the plates. I had a “Niman Ranch Pork Belly” (USD 10.00 on the menu; USD 11.00 on the bill; with spiced apple purée and lemon chili aioli). […]

30. December 2012: Alchemy Restaurant

The Alchemy Restaurant was ranked up high on TripAdvisor and apparently provided good and fresh food, so I decided to give it a try and take the 15 USD cab ride from downtown San Diego to the restaurant – so much upfront: it was worth it, even if you pay another USD 15 to get […]

30. December 2012: Viva El Cafe

What is so outstanding about this place is the fact that you get actual coffee in this place – and it is good and real coffee. Not this filter coffee crap you get in most places in the United States. The double espresso (USD 3.50) comes from freshly grinded roasted coffee beans and tastes great. […]

30. December 2012: Restaurant Casa de Reyes

Although the Restaurant Casa de Reyes is located in Old Town San Diego (so a pretty touristic area) the food is astonishingly good. Once you are seated, Nachos and Spicy Sauce are brought to your table. The nachos are tasty, the sauce is original spicy like in Mexico. As a main course I had the […]

30. December 2012 – 1. January 2013: Restaurant Prinzimini @ The Westin Gaslamp Quarter

Breakfast at the Restaurant Prinzimini is quite okay. For only USD 19.50 you get access to the breakfast buffet. The choices offered at the buffet are rather limited ranging from bacon, egg, waffles, bread, fruit, yoghurt, and cereals. You also get to order coffee, tea, and some juices. Overall, the food is quite okay. I […]

29. December 2012: Restaurant Urban

The Restaurant Urban was recommended by the Hotel I was staying at – and it was a good recommendation. It is located in the Gaslamp Quarter of San Diego and as usually I checked in and found a nice surprise – if you check in on foursquare.com you get a starter for free! So, I […]
