Cheers and bites 🍷 🍽️ 

What an unforgettable weekend at the Del Mar Wine + Food Festival! The two-day Grand Tasting at the Polo Fields brought together SoCal’s top chefs, wineries, and food lovers for a celebration of local flavor.

A standout event was CluckFest, the official after-party hosted by Chef Michael Voltaggio and the San Diego Wave FC. I loved the creative chicken dishes and cocktails. It was a wonderful evening.

The weekend also featured the Drew Brees Celebrity Pickleball Tournament. It was a fun-filled day of friendly competition, amazing food, and drinks.

Congrats to delmarfest for this celebration of great food and drink. I am already looking forward to next year.

Weekend mode: eat, sip, relax ☀️ 

Sometimes you just need a weekend getaway that checks every box. Paséa Hotel & Spa in Huntington Beach gave us exactly that.

Six reasons it was a fantastic getaway:
🍽️ We had an incredible meal at Lōrea, where Chef Dan Perry wowed us with coastal flavors from land and sea. The Prime Steak Frites with chimichurri was outstanding, the parker rolls with Turkish chili-lime butter were addictive, and the oshizushi and crudo were as fresh as it gets.

🍸 Rooftop cocktails at Treehouse on PCH made the evening even better. Watching the sunset with a live DJ, ocean views, and drinks like the Key Lime Martini and Obsidian Blue was unforgettable.

🌊 Mornings were just as special. Our room was modern and comfortable, with a balcony overlooking the Pacific. Waking up to the sound of waves and stepping outside to see the ocean was the best way to start the day.

🏊 The poolside vibe was another highlight. Lounging in a cabana with the ocean breeze in the air reminded us how close the water was, and it felt like a true vacation.

🏝️ Being right across from the beach made it easy to take morning walks along the sand ,and late-night strolls under the stars.

😃 And the staff made us feel at home. Everyone was warm, welcoming, and made sure every detail of our stay was memorable.

If you’re looking for a getaway that blends relaxation, amazing food, and the ocean at your doorstep, stay at paseahotel, enjoy dinner at lorea.hb and grab drinks at treehousehb

Chimichurri-marinated steak with cheddar chive mashed potatoes and mushroom onion jam. This dish alone is worth dining at One Door North.
 
Here’s what else we ordered:
🌱 Elote-Style Cauliflower
🥗 Roasted Beet Salad
🥩 Prime Flat Iron
🐠 Faroe Island Seared Salmon
🍫 S’mores Platter
🍸 Smoke Signal
 
Chef Fred Piehl has been shaping San Diego’s dining scene for more than 16 years, leading the kitchens at both One Door North and his popular French bistro, The Smoking Goat.
 
Enjoying dinner at onedoornorth feels like camping, but with local produce and seriously good food. The vibe is casual, the restaurant is buzzing with activity, and the tableside s’mores dessert is the perfect way to end your meal.

Enchanted, one of my favorite experiences, is back at insideOUT.   

The indoor and outdoor area transforms into a magical fantasy with vibrant colors, sparkling lights, and giant mushrooms. 

🍽️ Chef Johnny Duran has a new menu with a New York, Koji Aged and Pear & Prosciutto Crostata

🍸 There are whimsical cocktails like the Violet Vows and Down The Rabbit Hole, 

🍄 The glowing lights, smoky effects, and colorful details make it feel like you’ve stepped into another world. And yes, the food and drinks taste just as good as they look.

Enchanted is now open at insideoutsd and runs through November 2nd. Guests must be 18+ to enter. 

You can get dinner reservations on OpenTable 30 days in advance. You do not need reservations for cocktails only.

Coldplay and Imagine Dragons, on strings, surrounded by flickering candles 🕯️

I went to my first Candlelight Concert in San Diego, and it was incredible. Our 60-minute performance included 14 songs from Coldplay and Imagine Dragons, specially arranged for professional musicians.

What I love about these concerts is that they feature so many different themes and styles, so no matter your age or taste in music, there’s something that will speak to you. 

Some of the local concerts include The Beatles, Adele, Queen vs. Abba, Bad Bunny, and Fleetwood Mac. They’re all performed in locations filled with candles (Fleet Science Center, Adams Avenue Theater, Star Theatre, San Diego Natural History Museum).

candlelight.concerts has performed in 100+ cities around the world, with 3 million attendees. The music was amazing and I can’t wait to see my next.

Chicago vs New York style pizza? 🍕 On some nights, I’m a team deep dish fan, but on other nights, it’s all about that classic New York slice.

Regent’s Pizza has been feeding San Diego for 19 years, and they’ve got takeout down to an art. We got the Dominic’s for that classic NY fold, the Popeye Chicago deep dish for all the cheesy spinach glory, and honey BBQ wings that are sticky and sweet.

Here’s the best part. There are no pots, no pans, no dishes with takeouts. Just open the box and grab a slice. regentspizzeria makes it so easy to turn your living room into the best pizza spot in town.

Dumplings made fresh, right in front of you! 🥟

Just thinking of these delicious pan-fried beef & onion dumplings, Korean BBQ beef Xiao, cumin lamb, cucumber salad, and eggplant with vegetables makes me hungry.

Super Dumpling just opened in Carmel Valley, and they have an open kitchen where you can watch all dumplings being made fresh every day. 

🥟 Pan-Fried beef and Onion Dumpling
🍜 Signature Stew Beef Noodle Soup 
🥩 Korean BBQ Beef Xiao Long Bao
🐑 Fried Lamb with Cumin
Cucumber salad 
🍆 Eggplant with Garlic Sauce
🍚 Shrimp and Pineapple Fried Rice
🌱 Stir-Fried Mixed Vegetable
🍮 Cartoon Creamy Custard Buns

Between the authentic flavors, generous portions, and friendly staff, I am not surprised that during peak hours, there’s always a line to get a table at superdumplingcafe  Pro tip: it is worth the wait.

Farm-to-table flavors 🌱 

Harvest Week at Wormwood was unforgettable. Chef Omar omararmasg and his team brought out the best of the season with two exclusive tasting menus.

Every dish, from the madeleine with smoked char roe to the wagyu tartare and opéra cake, showed attention to detail, creativity, and showcased local farmers and fresh ingredients.

🧀 Madeleine – buckwheat, whipped herb fromage, smoked char roe
🦪 Delicacy – oyster butter, sago pearls, kiwi, trout roe, champagne foam
🐟 Poisson cru – fermented ginger, avocado, celery, sago pearls, pear, hoja santa
🐠 Poisson – squash, dragon tongue beans, fennel, arugula, cherry tomatoes
🥩 Wagyu tartare – roasted bone marrow, mustard, pickled serrano, bordelaise, sourdough,
🥩 Gnocchi à la Parisienne – choux pastry gnocchi, slow-cooked short rib, jus, crispy kale
🍰 Opéra – coffee and almond sponge cake, maracuya crème anglaise, almond gelato
🌱 Fruit du Dragon – charred sorbet, yogurt, white pavlova, red cloud, coconut sauce, lime caviar

One thing that is consistent about every visit to wormwoodsd is that the food and service is exceptional.

Three-course dinner
 
San Diego Restaurant Week is here, and Cori Pasta Trattoria is offering three courses for $55 or $65. Fresh peaches with creamy mozzarella, the most tender octopus, house-made gnocchi, branzino in smoky tomato broth, and a sweet Sicilian ending.
 
Our first course choice:
🧀 Bufala mozzarella with local peaches
🐙 Mediterranean octopus
 
Our second course
🐟 Branzino filet with smoked tomato broth
🍝 Spelt Flour gnocchi and pesto
 
💡 Pro Tip:  For $9, you can add the 24-hour fermented focaccia and eggplant caponata to your meal.  I’d highly recommend it.  And end your meal with tiramisu alla nocciola or Sicilian-style granita
 
cori_pasta is always special, but during sdrestaurantwk it’s such a good deal. Chef Accursio is award-winning for a reason, and the flavors here are unforgettable.

San Diego restaurant week runs Sunday the 14th through Sunday the 21st. There are 100+ restaurants participating with three course meals starting at. $30

Cone-fession time 🍦

This ice cream store has some serious bragging rights. Their Dad’s Famous Mint Chip won first place at the Scoops San Diego Festival, and they just landed at #12 on Yelp’s Top 100 Ice Cream Shops in the U.S.

When owner Dave Wright from Pacific Beach Ice Cream Co. invited me to watch him make his signature flavor, I thought I might learn the secret to making delicious ice cream. I didn’t! 

But I did learn this:
🍪 Oreo is the #1 most popular flavor (and one bite explained why)
🍹They’ve got boozy options like Peaches and Bourbon, Kahlua Espresso Martini, and Skrewball PB Cookie
📆 Seasonal flavors are always rotating. September brings Peaches and Bourbon, Basil, Chai Tai, and Waterman Italian Ice Cream. October means the return of Candy Cap Mushroom along with Pumpkin and Sweet Potato. November rolls in with Cranberry Relish.

Picking a favorite at pbicecreamco might be impossible. The only answer is to try them all, and go to scoopsandiego

Braised short rib dinner 🥩

When people ask why I love South Coast Winery, these two reasons say it all.

🍽️ First, the food. The braised short rib was melt-in-your-mouth tender, paired with a creamy squash polenta. I watched Chef Jon Alcala create this dish in the kitchen, and then happily devoured it.  The salmon, and ceviche tataki were every bit as delicious.

🍷 Second, the wine tasting. The vineyard views, the relaxed vibe, and the wines themselves will easily have you relaxed and having a good time. 

Go hungry (and thirsty) to southcoastwineryresort and you’ll leave happy.

Flavors that celebrate Mexico 🇲🇽

Walk in hungry, and you’ll leave happy. Just opened, Fonda Del Barrio is a great mix of Mexican flavors, craft cocktails, and a vibe that’ll have me keep coming back.

🐟The food was delicious. We started with the Salpicon de Jaiba (ceviche tostada) and the Sopa de Tortilla Huasteca (tortilla soup). I love the attention to detail in that they served it tableside to keep the tortilla strips crispy and the soup hot.

🥩 Seafood lovers should get the Pescado Tikin Xic, a Yucatan-style rockfish wrapped in banana leaves with bold, balanced flavors. And meat lovers, order the Filete de Res Porfirio (stuffed filet mignon in a creamy squash blossom reduction).

🍮 The dessert is just as good. Try the traditional de Elote custard, the mole-inspired sweet potato mousse with queso panela, or splurge and get both (it’s worth it). 

🍹The cocktail menu is just as authentic. The Mezcalita and Oaxaca Old Fashioned were great pairings for the flavors of the food. 

fondadelbarrio is the newest spot in Barrio Logan, and it already feels like a local favorite.

Snow-aged A5 Wagyu 🥩

🔥 This was my first time trying snow-aged A5 Wagyu, and it was tender, rich, and melt-in-your-mouth. The Great Oak Steakhouse is one of the few steakhouses serving this authentic, snow-aged Wagyu, making it a must-visit for anyone who loves exceptional steak.

👨‍🍳 Chef Emmanuel Inocencio let me watch him make some of his signature dishes in the kitchen, including their signature Diver Scallops dish. I also highly recommend the Sea Bass Ceviche, and Watermelon & Strawberry Salad.

🏆 The restaurant was awarded the 2025 Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence, and is AAA Four Diamond-rated. That’s the sign of quality and perfection!

Besides this incredible meal, our stay at Pechanga Resort Casino included:
🏊 Poolside fun at The Cove
💆‍♂️ Massages at Spa Pechanga
🛏️ Relaxing in their luxurious rooms

A weekend at pechangacasino is the perfect getaway (and just an hour drive from San Diego).

From kitchen to festival 👨‍🍳

These beautiful dishes deserve a stage, and you can catch the Culinary Director Aidan Owen (Herb & Wood, Herb & Sea) at the VIP welcome reception on Saturday at the Del Mar Food & Wine Festival.

If you haven’t dined here, you’re missing out. Every dish Chef Aidan Owen creates is a work of art. Beautifully plated, flavorful, creative, and just the right amount of wow.

🐟 Hamachi (schoug, amba, crispy shallots, cilantro)
🐠 Tuna crudo (grated tomato, garlic oil, chive, everything seasoning)
🍆 Baba ghanoush (mojo de ajo, pickled peppers)
🎣 Seared tuna steak (horseradish puree, caper relish, parsley salad)
🐓 Woodfired half chicken (biryani spice, green tahini, pepper relish)
🍸 Tequila & watermelon
🍹 Lemon & Herbs

All of this creativity will be coming to the Del Mar Food & Wine Festival (Sept 10–14, 2025). You don’t want to miss this gathering of the best of California’s food, chefs, wines, and celebrities.

Pizza, wings, beer, what more could you want

🍕 We’ve been coming to Regent’s Pizzeria since it opened, and it’s easy to understand why we keep coming back. Their pizzas are always amazing, and they specialize in both Chicago and New York-style pizzas. Every slice is perfectly baked and full of flavor.

🐓 The wings are just as good. They have 14 flavors, from sweet Honey BBQ to fiery Scorpion wings for anyone who likes it 2,000,000 Scoville hot. They’re so crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside.

🍺 The beer selection is huge. Whether you want a light lager or a bold craft IPA, there’s always something new to try.

Regent’s has been a San Diego favorite for 19 years, and they’re about to celebrate 20 in December. The food at regentspizzeria is consistently great, the service is always friendly, and it’s the reason we keep coming back.

Pure Sonoran delicious 🥩

Arrachera tacos with bone marrow and Short rib covered with demiglace and piloncillo syrup. Just two of the delicious dishes we devoured. 🤤 

You counted correctly if you noticed that this is the third time I’ve dined at Restaurante Palominos steakhouse in Tijuana in the last 6 months, and there are three reasons why:

🍽️ The food is the first reason I keep coming back. From Bom-Bawic and arrachera tacos to the Alicia salad, pepper fillet, and that unforgettable short rib, every dish has bold Sonoran flavor that keeps me craving more. 🌵 

🍹 The drinks are another highlight. They have creative cocktails that are finished tableside. And the carajillo menu is unlike anywhere else, with options like the marshmallow-topped Bombón 🔥 and the smooth Baileys twist that turns it into dessert in a glass.

🌟 And then there’s the experience itself. The service is warm and attentive, and the decor is stylish, whether you’re dining indoors or outdoors. 

Every visit to palominosmx has been memorable for me, and that combination for a steak dinner is hard to beat.

Oklahoma onion sliders 🍔 

These sliders are so flavorful, with layers of onion sweetness making it a dish that’s perfect for sharing and I ordering over and over again. 

I took my daughter to Madison on Park in University Heights, and we both loved our meal. The food was absolutely delicious.  The tuna tartare and brie were perfect appetizers, and the tagliata di manzo was cooked just right. 

It’s no surprise Madison is so popular, as the drinks are creative (just order the Queen of Crowns and you’ll see what I mean), with live jazz on Tuesdays Thursday and Sundays (and even dinner with dogs and jazz on Wednesdays).

I highly recommend checking out madisononpark if you’re in the area.

Two decades strong 🍽️ 

Dinner at Beaumont’s is a reminder of why locals keep coming back. We had the miso whipped ricotta with warm bread, charred broccolini, crusted ahi tuna, crispy salmon, chicken milanese, and the bistro tenderloin. All the flavors that they are known for.

🔪 Beaumont’s has been the heartbeat of Bird Rock for 20 years. Since opening in 2005, neighbors meet here, and friendships start. It’s known for good food, good music, and La Jolla friendly vibes.

🍹 We sipped on the Sandia California, Amy’s blackberry spritz, and their classic Beaumont’s Mai Tai. Their cocktail list has always been a reason people love hanging out here.

🎵 Then there’s the music, part of Beaumont’s identity from day one. It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience that ties the whole neighborhood together.

Here’s to the first 20 years of food, drinks, and live music at beaumontslj and to many more.

One bite = instant obsession 🍽️ 

Oceanside just got a new spot that everyone is going to be talking about. I visited The Victorian on its first week open, and the food and drinks already feel like they’ve been perfected.

🐠 I’m calling it now: the grilled vermillion is going to be one of their signature dishes. It features tomato jus, salmoriglio sauce, seasonal tomatoes, lemon, cucumber, bell peppers, and red onion. It is a 10/10, easily.

🥔 And the sweet potato with cashew cream, kaffir leaf, fermented honey vinaigrette, serrano pepper, pickled golden raisin, black lime, and cilantro was so good. No matter what you order, add this as a side.

🍹 Just like the food, the cocktails are inventive, balanced, and beautiful. Each cocktail feels as well thought-out as the dishes. And even when sipped from the patio when they have live music.

🏠 The restaurant is located inside the historic 1887 Weitzel House, which gives the whole experience a unique Oceanside charm.

For a restaurant that has only been open a week, victorianoceanside already set the bar high with amazing food and standout service. I have no doubt this will be one of Oceanside’s favorites in no time.
