San Diego Fish Tacos & Burritos
- b
- bostonbeefeater Mar 4, 2008 04:46 PM
I will be in SD for a couple of days on business and am looking for a place to eat a good burrito and another place to get some fish tacos. I abhor fast food chains and tourist traps. I am looking for a local mom and pop type of place that only locals know about. We can't get good burritos in Boston and I hear SD is the place to get them. Though we get wicked awesome fresh fish here in New England, no seems to know how to make a good fish taco. Thanks, Bostonbeefeater
As far as I know, there are no Fish Tacos in San Diego that compares to Ensenada... so bring your Passport with you for that. Not in the same league, but the tacos at Betty's in Escondido are pretty solid... and they do other things well that you wouldn't be able to find in Boston like Mole de Olla.
re: Eat_Nopal
You are right thus far - but I am working on it the fish taco situation. Its my current project. There will be more mariscos missions coming up. A worthwhile fish taco must exist.
Until then - the best fish taco in SD is Marlin Carnitas at Mariscos German
or II can refer you to El Taco Nazo/Senor Baja in Temecula or Pedros Tacos in Fallbrook with confidence. They have the best proper tacos de pescado - but its a drive.
re: kare_raisu
Yeah, the tacos here aren't quite as good as Ensenada, but you can still get some pretty damned good ones. Better than probably anywhere else in the country. I personally like the ones at Blue Water Grill and Wahoo's a lot.
re: DougOLis
KR... do we have consensus that L.A. has better Fish Tacos than S.D.?
re: Eat_Nopal
re: kare_raisu
Well that's great and all but it still misses the point, bostonbeefeater isn't going to either LA or Ensenada. They are going to San Diego so saying other places might be better is kind of moot and you're not being very helpful. The op is coming from Boston where they don't have access to fish tacos and burritos, and I still think we have good ones here.
What you're saying is that I shouldn't eat French food in France because we have French Laundry in California. That's just dumb.
re: DougOLis
Easy brother.
"...I still think we have good ones here."
"I abhor fast food chains and tourist traps."
-Wahoos is a chain and I believe more known for their grilled fish.
- Blue water grill? Part of the beauty of a fish taco is that it is street food and should be within reach of everyone. Not neccistate sit-down dining.
re: kare_raisu
Blue Water isn't formal. It's ultra casual. They do have good fish tacos, IMO. If you haven't been there, it's worth checking out. Their fish is very high quality.
re: kare_raisu
Yeah, Blue Water isn't like that. You order at a counter and someone brings it to you. There's no wait service. It's all plastic plates, baskets, etc. True, the fish tacos are a little beyond street food, but no more so than other places in SD.
re: kare_raisu
I would preface the street concept to be your humble opinion, Doug is absolutly correct.
I have had good fish tacos at the Bringantine and El Zarape.
re: normalheightsfoodie
hey I agree about the brig fish tacos -if you can get past the cheddar cheese -yet per the OP - they are a chain.
re: kare_raisu
I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything; I just took exception to the notion that good fish tacos don't exist in San Diego. As stated: Mariscos German, Blue Water, Brigantine, and the places you and EN recommended up North (I haven't been to either so I can't judge). That answers your "Where?"
I don't really consider either Wahoos or The Brigantine to be fast food chains in the traditional sense. They are small chains but they're not in the same category as Rubio's. Right?
re: DougOLis
I agree
re: kare_raisu
Second that, I tried the Marlin Taco last weekend. Fantastic, and they kindly gave me a free cup of basic but good shrimp bouillabaisse while I waited.
re: trentyzan
nice! I think it is great that they offer that rather than chips. One day I had it -it was extraordinary.
re: trentyzan
There is a mariscos Taco Truck on 54th that always gives you a great cup of seafood bouillabaisse when you wait.
re: kare_raisu
Lots actually, KR. On the blog soon.
Chulos Food Truck...54th at Redwood- the North East corner in the parking lot.
re: Eat_Nopal
Well, then it was a great caldo de camarones :)
re: Eat_Nopal
Excuse moi...
re: Eat_Nopal
I KNOW....please look at the thread. I was commenting on another one, and not correcting him.
Actually, I have it from good trustworthy sources (Kare_Raisu, Josh, Dinining Diva & gang) that Mariscos German should not be missed.... well beyond Baja style fish tacos... like tender Octopus, Garlicky Shrimp tacos and other good stuff.
I lived in San Diego a few years ago. I've never been to the other places mentioned, but I thought that Ortega's on Newport Ave in OB had THE best fish tacos ever. In fact, everything was amazing (I've traveled a lot through Mexico too, I feel entitled to know :) My dad said it was the best swordfish he'd ever had. Definitely a fun hole-in-the-wall, mom and pop place too. It's on the north side of the street, a block west of Sunset Cliffs.
re: Alice Q
I too must place a vote for Mariscos German as the best Mexican seafood place in San Diego I have discovered.
Highly reccomend the Gobenador taco (shrimp grilled with peppers and cheese) and the Pulpo Mexican (octopus grilled with onion). The smoked Marlin taco is also amazing.
I have yet to try their standard fish taco but it is next on my list...
Way off the beaten path, very mom and pop.
re: Ewilensky
I've had the standard fish taco a Mariscos German. It's good, but it pales in comparison to most of the others. The taco de callo (scallops) is wonderful. An item that hasn't yet been mentioned are their quesadillas. Phee had the shrimp quesadilla the day we were there and it was excellent. It's kind of a Mexican/American quesadilla - meaning that it was made with a flour tortilla - but the flavor was good, the shrimp delicious and the crustiness from grilling added a nice smoky touch.
re: DiningDiva
OK DD, on my way home from work today I will order a taco de callo and a quesadilla (as well as a Marlin and Octopus taco) for dinner tonight. I should probably get one of everything for my wife as well. Hell if I am going to share... ;-)
re: Ewilensky
Don't miss the aguachile tostada.
re: Ewilensky
Huh, interesting!
I suspect that's a dish that is highly dependent on the freshness of the shrimp. When I had it, there was no fishy flavor at all. Sorry to hear that, but it's good to know.
re: Ewilensky
The taco de callo was excellent and gave the pulpo mexicano a run for its money. These are my two favorites now. My wife enjoyed the quesadilla de camerones very much and the little bite I was able to steal from her, warrants another trip down there in a few weeks. They already know my by name. Is 3 times in 1 week too much???
I'm eating a salad tonight...
re: Ewilensky
"They already know me by name. Is 3 times in 1 week too much???"
Awesomeness! :^)
re: Ewilensky
On that scallop taco there is something magical about the pairing of the white sauce and maggi seasoned sauteed callos! I think scallops are one of my favorite foods texturally.
re: kare_raisu
I will add I needed to get all of this 'to go' and the execution was different than on previous visits.
Whereas the first and second time I ordered the pulpo mexicano when I was eating there I got the usual cabbage and white sauce, etc...
Last night however when I unwrapped my tacos at home I got none of that -- just a corn tortilla heaped with grilled octopus and nothing else. I must say, there was more meat on these tacos than my last 2 combined. It was simple and it was excellent but different than I expected.
The same with the scallop taco -- nothing but scallops piled high, and almost more than I could eat in one sitting (but I managed).
The gobenadores taco was excactly the same however.
This is not a complaint, and perhaps if my Spanish was better I could ask for all the fixings. Still, on their own, these were excellent tacos.
But damnit, now I need to go back to try the other versions...
re: Ewilensky
"E" next time you could ask for "con todo" which basically means with everything.
re: Ewilensky
When I was there a couple weeks ago with Alex I noticed that they had several regulars come in. The gal taking orders at the counter was asking them if they wanted their "usual". Most did. I think you're headed towards "regular" territory.
The worst part of Marsicos German for me is the proxcimity to Panchita's at 25th and C. Tacos followed by their palmiers or macaroons is perfect.
re: DiningDiva
That's what I love to see. So many people are obsessed with having food identical to country X (insert what ever country you like) but often the best local food doesn't try to imitate some where else and instead it is a hybrid mixing foreign with local to form a uniquely local end product. The important thing is always taste first and for most. If it tastes good then who cares if the regional version is different from country X?
re: Ewilensky
I think both KR & DD have very good references to compare, if they think its amazing... I don't think it is unreasonable to compare Mariscos German with the very best Mexican Seafood places in the entire U.S. (E.L.A. Serenata de Garibaldi etc.,).
Thank you for all of the awesome feedback. It is looking like Mariscos German may be the place to go. I am in SD for two nights starting on Friday so I will be able to check out a couple of places. I hope that either I or my wife can reciprocate someday on suggestions on where to eat in Boston. Bostonbeefeater
re: bostonbeefeater
I am sure that you have other things to check out other than Mexican... and everybody here has played nice respecting the boundaries of your requests... but if you really are interested in Mexican... in addition to Mariscos German, you should give Super Cocina a try... and go sample some prepared foods at Northgate Gonzalez Market... also I think the locals in the know might also vouch for some Contemporary or Alta Cocina places like Romesco... and I know KR has found some Panaderias he really digs.... as well as some highly specialized places near the border like Menuderia Don Vicente etc.,
The San Diego Mexican offering (well still litterred with a bunch of really, crappy "Taco Shops") goes well beyond Fish Tacos & Burritos... and in my personal experiences at Super Cocina, Betty's & even Frida (which is still quite uneneven)... Fish Tacos & Burritos are the last thing that would interest me about San Diego.
re: Eat_Nopal
Amen to that. I was going to say it's always disappointing to me how often Super Cocina recs are couched in commentary about the neighborhood where it's located, followed up with suggestions for places with lesser food, that are in "safer" neighborhoods. The neighborhood isn't fancy, no, but it's a varied and mixed ethnic environment, which is why it's home to so many great places to eat. It's certainly no worse than where Mariscos German is located.
Part of the problem here is surely the narrow perception a lot of Americans have as to what Mexican food even is. I can't even remember the last time I ate a burrito, or at a taco shop, since being exposed to Super Cocina.
re: Eat_Nopal
I hate to burst everyone's bubble about the Mexican food at Northgate but a lot of it is frozen prepared that they heat and serve. My source is pretty reliable.
re: DiningDiva
Let me broaden my meaning of prepared foods....
1) One of the few Mexican grocers NOB that actually has an attendant dispatching artisinal sweets
2) Ceviches of various sorts (not likely frozen)... including 3 types of Agua Chile preparations (Green, Red & the more traditional White)
3) Blue Corn Tortillas straight from the line
4) Nopales & other types of Salads
5) Carnitas including choices of cuts, that don't look like they could be from frozen (well maybe the raw meat was frozen at one point)
etc., etc., etc.,
re: Eat_Nopal
I need to go back and get some more of those coconut-filled limes. They were incredible.
re: DiningDiva
what do you mean...the stews and tamales?
re: kare_raisu
Most likely their carnitas, barbacoa, bulk salsas, pozole, menudo, rice, beans...
re: Eat_Nopal
They should try a good birria stew. There are a number of places with some really good goat stews and while he's at it there are some great mom & pop places on convoy with excellent Korean BBQ. I'm just offering these ideas to provide a bit more local flair.
I haven't been there in a little while, but I was thinking that El Zarape usually has decent seafood tacos and burritos. Definitely a non-chain place and not a tourist trap, though it is not the "standard" fare necessarily. (Just noticed that normalheightsfoodie mentioned that in an earlier post, too).
re: kevsterSD
El Zarape for many years WAS our seafood taco/burrito go-to place. I'm not sure if we'll be going there again after eating at Mariscos German.
Still, a good pick, especially if you are in Balboa Park as it is right down the street
re: Ewilensky
I also used to like El Zarape a lot, but now I'd probably go to Mama Testa, also close to the park on University. It is a little pricier though.
re: bostonbeefeater
It's a standard taco shop, nothing particularly special about it IMO, though it's a good example of taco shop fare.
I really like Bay Park Fish Company near Sea World drive and I-5..fish tacos are excellent along with other great stuff and they have a decent happy hour..
I am a fan of Las Cuatros Milpas under the Coronado Bridge which has been serving great Mex for many years..I would go during the day..excellent carnitas.. no fish tacos.
Most of our Taco Shops are pretty darn good out here..some better than others.
The Brigantine Restaurant which is a local restaurant chain makes some pretty good fish tacos and they are always packed with locals for there everyday seafood happy hour.
re: Beach Chick
Careful there... we want to impress the East Coaster, no? I have randomly walked into San Diego Taco Shops... and no, unless my Mexdar is way off, most aren't pretty darn good, they are pretty damn bad... starting with Roberto's in Del Mar, through Dos Burritos in Vista... and some random places I have stopped at around in the neighborhoods around the Airport, Sea World & San Diego State.
re: Eat_Nopal
hee hee Eat Nopal..
We do want to impress the East Coaster and it was a broad brush to paint that
'all' taco shops are pretty darn good..
I guess I haven't had that many bad experiences but some do stand out as not so good..
My apologies..
re: Beach Chick
Do you know what hours Los Cuatros Milpas is open? Thanks!
re: alskii
I'm not sure what time they open (by 10 AM or so) but they close at 3 PM, and they're closed all day on Sundays.
Eat at Rubio's even though they have gone way down hill since their stock went public. Rubio was the first to bring (that I know of) to bring Ensenada style fish tacos to the US. That said there is really is no good Mexican in San Diego and for that matter the restaurant scene pretty much sucks too. Remember this is the town that votes in our local newspaper, the Union Tribune, rates Olive Garden, year after year, as the best Italian restaurant in SD.
re: The Old Man
There's some good Mexican here, you just have to seek it out.
re: The Old Man
When it comes to deliciousness, food quality & menu variety (particular getting away from the Mexican-American beaten path) Super Cocina is in the top 5% of all Mexican eateries in the U.S..... definitely among my Top 25 in California.
re: The Old Man
Rubios fish tacos are in the style of san felipe - at least when they first started - for the record.
"No good Mexican in San Diego" All I can do is laugh and suggest you join me for a tour. In case you havent noticed, San Diego's Mexican scene is getting better by the second.
Who cares about the Union Tribune polls? Not me and mind you my grandfather freaking works there.
re: kare_raisu
Well, about 3/4 of the "better by the minute" is due to your passion and persistence in finding the obscure and more authentic of our local treasures, KR. I'm not sure most of us would take the time to seek out the spots you've found and report back. My waistline may not thank you, but I sure do!
re: kare_raisu
IMO, SD has the best Mex cuisine in the country, thank goodness cause we don't have much else to hang our hats on.
re: The Old Man
Never looked at Tucson, was that TEX-MEX or MEX? I agree with you about SD, I've been and ate all over this country (searching ethnic nhoods) and can't understand why SD is this way. We do have nice weather, a great military presence, beaches, convention business and are a destination for vacationers, but on the culinary seen we lack big time. I wish for a North Beach or Chinatown like SF, Ethnic neighborhoods like NY CHIC or BOS that have outstanding chow at realistic prices, but that's not going to happen. Oh well... we have nice weather.
re: kare_raisu
Remember the polls are the views of the average SD resident. The residents are who frequent the restaurants. If the general populations shows they are ignorant of good food it follows that, on the whole, there will be less quality restaurants.
re: The Old Man
you can say that about anywhere in this country, save SF
re: kare_raisu
I disagree. Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, New Orleans, as you mention San Francisco. Remember SD was orignally mostly a miltary town. Farm boys from the heartland came back from the war and settled here. There was never a history of quality restaurants. I find that even when you go to the better restaurants the food service is inexperienced. You need a large base of excellent restaurants to develop a base of good chef, servers, etc.
Also note that even though SD is the 7th or 8th largest city in the US Zagat discontinued their book here for about 7 years. It's only come back recently and without the addition of OC to it it would be one of their thinest editions for a major city.
re: The Old Man
I have been traveling to Chicago quite a bit.... the Chicago Suburbs reminds me of a much uglier version of San Diego - Orange County with the dominance of local chains (Jimmy Johns, Portillo's etc.,) and national chains.
L.A. also fits that description quite a bit.
With that said Chicago & L.A. both have more Top Notch restaurants than San Diego (but they aren't compact little Chow meccas either)... the devoted Chowhounds (the RST, Amatas & a handful of others) are the exception there... with so many suckers (kind of like some posters here in SD which I will not name) that are willing to dish out money primarily for ambience & location... and lastly for food quality.
re: The Old Man
didn't you say "general populations" ? Your mentioning zagats on chowhound....? huh?
re: kare_raisu
I'm new here and as I said, here or in the other current SD thread, I will not make anymore comments about the food in SD. However, again, the point I was making about the general population is NOT that they necessarily are the aribitrators of good food, but that without a knowledgable general population it's hard to sustain a quality restaurant. There aren't enough people to keep a place (other than a lot of the shack style places) in business.
I regards to Zagat's, it has turned me onto many good places and I've rarely been let down. Again, it has to be in a city in which the general population has some knowledge of good food, so that those who take the time to write and vote will expect food of a certain level. I do find the SD Zagat's pretty much a waste of time because of that lack in the general population--not necessarily the posters here.
re: The Old Man
Spot-on! TOM, while other well blessed culinary cities had a large influx of immigrants, thus excellent restaurants, bakeries, specialty foods etc., SD basicly had Mexicans, Spanish, and farmers, and we do that pretty well. I think the frustration about the restaurant scene in SD comes from that lacking base and SD can't manufacture or buy that. The other piece I don't understand is where SD restaurants base their pricing from, it's beyond me. I mean I can eat in NYC or in fact almost anywhere in the US better and cheaper than SD, sometimes even Hawaii, go figure.
re: cstr
Maybe we're not speaking the same language here, but I can think of a number of good ethnic restaurants in San Diego that are quite inexpensive to moderate.
Places like Super Cocina, Pomegranate, Mama's Lebanese Bakery and Deli, Izakaya Sakura, Tajima, Noodle Town, Saigon, Lucky Pho, Mona Lisa, Pizzeria Luigi, Urban Solace, etc. There's definitely good food to be found in San Diego if you look hard enough.
re: DougOLis
Yeah, for sure on those two. Also Dumpling Inn, Noodle Town, Buga, Punjabi Tandoor, Surati Farsan, Bandar, Chopahn - I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of.
re: Josh
Josh, I do agree, there are a 'few' unique places in SD, but no extensive diversity of ethnic nhoods, and I do enjoy the hunt. But nothing like the other cities mentioned, and that's what I'm trying to convey in the comment and I believe that's where we see topics of frustration about SD restaurants on this CH board. I respect your comments on this board, if you have travelled about the US, please attempt to explain how our SD restaurants come up with their pricing. I was on the other coast last week, ate at an italian restaurant, in an Italian nhood, the cost of any full dinner entree on the menu was under $20. , I'm talking sole proprietorship (family owned), home cooking, Also the specialty shops and bakeries in the hood. Incredible stuff!
re: cstr
There are some ethnic foods where San Diego is definitely lacking, Italian and Greek being particular standouts. You'll get no argument from me there. However we do have good Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Mexican, though not necessarily in large numbers.
I've eaten in other big cities in the US, specifically New York, San Francisco, Dallas, Seattle, and Los Angeles. San Diego is pretty lame in comparison to many of these, agreed.
However, rather than lament that we don't have *as many* good places to eat as these other cities, I'd rather find the gems that we do have and patronize those places, to do my part to ensure they stay in business.
re: The Old Man
wow, just wow
@KR: I didn't know that Rubio's is San Felipe style. What's the difference between San Felipe and Ensanada?
re: DougOLis
The tortillas.... those real dark, almost malty corn tortillas are a speciality of the native Cochimi people on the San Felipe side of the Peninsula... in Ensenada they use the more common white corn masa.
re: The Old Man
I used to like Rubios - even though it's a chain, etc. but I've had enough marginal to bad meals there in the last year or so to put me off the place.
If you're looking for a fight, then you just might get it with the last couple of sentences of your post. Please don't come on this board and tell us there's nothing good to eat in San Diego. You'll find lots of good recommendations on this board - a little research goes a long way.
re: Alice Q
Ruh Roh Raggy!
I used to live in Chicago and lived in the bay area and we are eating great here in San Diego county.
I would post my favorite fish taco and burrito recs, but I am skeered. LOL
re: Alice Q
kinda off subject of fish tacos and burritos, but props to the posters who are supporting sd dining! i mean, constructive criticism from folks is useful, but outright bashing doesn't really serve a purpose (… better to be part of the solution, not the problem). there are several posters on this board who are highly informed and articulate and spend a lot of time hunting culinary treasures around town. and when they find something, they're more than eager to share the merits of their discoveries. those who can't find anything good should follow some of their recommendations (i gotta say, though, that if you've just moved from a place like chi or nyc, it is kind of a shock here). no question that sd has a way to go to make more quality eating accessible to everyone in the county (i.e. in everyone's neighborhood), but it's far from a wasteland.
by the way, bostonbeefeater, i second eat nopal's suggestion of romesco as a place to enjoy mexican cuisine beyond a fish taco or burrito. you'll need 2+ hours, because service is relaxed. but the service reflects that you should be able to linger over something very satisfying.
re: Alice Q
Hear hear Alice Q,
While I am willing to concede that I have visited many cities in the world that have a much better food scene, there are exponentially far more that pale in comparison to San Diego. I eat quite well here and anyone who says there is nothing good to eat in this town is poorly informed at best.
re: Captain Jack
Not to beat a dead horse, but while the "scene" is lacking somewhat, the actual food here can be really good. I have found the biggest difference is not the quality of individual places, but that there will be a limited number of any type of place compared to other cities of similar size.
There is at least 1 outstanding restaurant, store, etc. for almost every type of cuisine, but often no more than one or two versus a NY, SF, CHI which will have dozens.
re: JRSD
Very good point.
I think that several good points have been made here. As a regular reader and sometimes poster, I am feeling discouraged by the seemingly snide and holier than thou stance taken by some here. It makes me think twice about posting for fear of being flamed for thinking something I've eaten here, in my hometown, is actually (dare I say it?) *good*. I may not have traveled and eaten in all of the dining meccas that some of you have, and I may not have the most refined palate but my fat ass sure does know good food from bad or just average.
So yeah, I do mean to beat a dead horse. I mean, seriously, why post a supposed "recommendation" if all you have to say is that SD has NOTHING to offer? If that is truly the case, then go ahead and starve. Or leave. Buh-bye. We really don't need the 15 jammed up, nor this board, with another miserable transplant lamenting the lack of food. Sorry, that would be my native San Diegan get-the-hell-outta-my-city kicking in. I just can't stand to constantly be barraged with how much the SD dining scene sucks. Well, duh. If all you can do is talk trash instead of trying to support the places that are good, then good riddance to you. Meanwhile, I will listen to my fellow chowhounds who actually do the leg work, find the jewels that SD *does* have to offer and enjoy some good eats.
re: soulshine
this is the resurrection of the san diego restaurants are bad post. Thank you Alice, Capt., JRSD, & soulshine. Extra props for that last paragraph soulshine.
I dont get these people who come on this board and the first thing they post is something negative. 'vast cultural and culinary wasteland' get out then and breed misery somewhere else
re: kare_raisu
kare raisu, I am always happy to see a new thread pop up when it's started by you. I love that you do the research and that you *sacrifice* yourself sampling all that SD has to offer ;-)
KR, AliceQ, Kirk, Josh, JRSD, Capt, et al, thanks for consistently posting your finds and for standing up for what good places we DO have here.
I happen to love San Diego and wouldn't trade having been born and raised here for the all fine dining in the world. I know where to eat well and where to enjoy our fair city while eating well.
My apologies to the rest of you and the OP for continuing the thread derailment, I'm done wasting my time :)
re: soulshine
Ah, man thank you so much. :^)
I love San Diego with all my heart and soul and I am so glad I am back. We do not realize how wonderful and special this town is.
re: kare_raisu
Your guys' points are well taken, and venting on here about badness isn't really going to help anything. I would say, though, that if you have bad experiences at restaurants, communicate that to the owners. If they hear often enough that they're not up to snuff, or that people aren't coming away satisfied, then perhaps you will spur some change. I know that my own whining and hectoring about beer options has actually (at times) resulted in improvements.
re: kare_raisu
On the "Carlsbad" thread, I actually *gasp!* suggested taking those kinds of comments over to "SD Restos are Bad". I realize that it was an invitation to resurrect the thread, but I'd rather contain the negativity than see it splashed all over any thread to do with SD. If I read one more comment about how San Diego is "dim-witted" "a vast cultural and culinary wasteland", I'm going to start slugging.
I'm a transplant. Soulshine, bravo to your comments, but I do have to add that some of us aren't quite so miserable. ;) I'll admit I did my fair share of whining when I first moved here, but once I shut up and took the time to look for great chow, there was quite a bit out there. Many thanks to the SD 'Hounds for all of their recommendations and support.
As for comments about other cities with a large influx of immigrants and how that leads to great chow... it does. Food is a basic need of any community and when you have a large enough group that wants familiar food, someone (or lots of someones) will answer that call. The influx of transplants to San Diego are job-oriented. They're largely soldiers or scientists. I'm sure many know how to eat well, but we're not opening restaurants or anything. Where there's a demand, there will be an eventual supply and I think we're starting to see that with our ever-growing and ever-evolving dining scene. It's just the demand's growing faster than the supply right now.
re: geekyfoodie
Oh dear, I did not mean to imply that all transplants are miserable or shouldn't be here. Not at all. I love that SD is a big mix of transplants and those of us who were fortunate enough to be born in a place where the weather is indeed fabulous. And I realize it was harsh to come off with the ol' "Don't let the door hit'cha..." but, that was what I was feeling at the moment. I have loved ones who are transplants, and some who lived here for a time, moved back home and yearn for some places in SD that they can't find something comparable to back "home". I have one poor friend who would give anything to have a fraction of the good chow we have here. She lives in San Bernardino! I don't imagine that anyone who actually lives or has lived or has spent any amount in time in San Berdu would argue that good chow is bountiful there. I feel fortunate to have some of the great places we do have here. It could always be worse ;-)
re: soulshine
Oh, no offense taken at all, Soulshine! Trust me, my reply was totally meant as a tease. I completely understand the need to defend against bashing of one's hometown. Even though I'm not a native, I also feel a little of the "get out if you don't like it!" when the SD-bashers come out.
I think Captain Jack put it best with:
"While I am willing to concede that I have visited many cities in the world that have a much better food scene, there are exponentially far more that pale in comparison to San Diego."
I'm further inspired to never swear off a seemingly non-chow town by this thread:
Good food can be found almost anywhere... there may not be a lot of it nor will there be tons of variety, but it exists.
re: soulshine
I almost posted something to this effect last night, and I'm glad to see I'm not alone in those feelings. Our poor OP must wonder what kind of a can of worms he opened here! I believe the subject of Mexican food in San Diego is a more passionate topic because we have the closest proximity to the border, and, logically, should have the best to offer. However, logic is not always applicable to food.
While I admit I'm not as adventurous as some of you (*cough* Alex *cough*), I put a whole lot of faith and belief in those of you who are and post about it here. UT reader polls? Never voted, and they mean very little. Zagat? Not my thing. I would always go to CH or a similar forum, or even ask the locals, should I find myself in a location where I was unfamiliar with the dining options.
re: phee
The UT is pretty worthless on food. They had a thing by Erin Glass in the entertainment section on Tajima. It had some glaring inaccuracies, like thinking the shaved bonito on top of the okonomiyaki was pork (since when does pork taste like fish?), and making reference to "some refreshing root" - guess she never heard of daikon radish.
Reading the UT, particularly the comments, is a sobering reminder of why Cheesecake Factory has lines out the door.

The Ukrainian film "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors" won almost every, award in sight on the 1964 film festival circuit. But it's become even more important in recent years, as a reminder not only of a talented director - Sergei Parajanov - but also of the restrictive Soviet approach to the arts.
After making a film that won awards in London, New York, San Francisco, Mar del Plata and Montreal, you see, Parajanov didn't go on to become one of Russia's leading directors. He went on to become a political prisoner, charged with the usual things Soviet dissidents are sent away for. He's in the fourth year of a five-year sentence, which he more or less brought upon himself with a fiery address to an artists conference at which he called for an end to socialist realism and the beginning of more subjective, personal Soviet films.
"Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors" could stand as an example of the sort of film he was calling for. It's one of the most unusual films I've seen, a barrage of images, music and noises, shot with such an active camera we almost need seatbelts.
In the Soviet Union, nationalism and regional identities are still highly charged forces. And Parajanov's film is overtly regional: He celebrates the births, marriages, deaths and folk customs of the people of the Carpathians. Their holidays and festivals seem filled with the energy of countless Zorbas, but then there are the long days of labor, and Parajanov follows them through long winters, storm-swept springs and blistering summers.
His story follows the life and death of Ivan, whose childhood sweetheart slips from a mountain trail and drowns in the river below. Ivan grows morose and secretive, but finally does settle down and marry a strikingly beautiful woman. Even then he's not happy: They can't have children, and in their superstition they consult witches and the supernatural. Ivan himself becomes obsessed with the notion that his first sweetheart will be miraculously restored to him, and there is a tense scene while he's praying with his wife and adds the words "…and the drowned" after the prayer for the dead.
Parajanov's visual style is sometimes bursting with life, sometimes merely overwrought. A point-of-view shot, for example, has the camera swooping straight down as a tree falls on young Ivan's father. Other shots zoom in and out of forests and barnyards and celebrations, and during violent scenes he sometimes interrupts shots with freeze frames and tints his film; during a death scene, blood-drenched horses leap across the screen. A few of these pyrotechnics can go a long way, and there were times in "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors" when I thought they went too far.
But Parajanov has a genuine gift. He has the kind of heedless energy you glimpse in some of the early work of Martin Scorsese, pounding camerawork so filled with itself it can hardly contain the story. And for anyone who's interested in the Ukrainian culture and customs of perhaps a century ago, "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors" is a treasure, a repository of costumes, masks, superstitions and beliefs, courtship customs and the sufferings of short lives with too much work in them.

Reuters - England's Twenty20 match against South Africa at Durham on Wednesday has been cancelled due to a waterlogged pitch. Officials met with ground staff on Tuesday and the decision was reached following discussions with both teams, the ECB said on its website (www.ecb.co.uk). The teams are due to play on Friday at Headingley in the first of five one-day internationals.

Pietersen warns England over complacencyKevin Pietersen warned his England team that he won't tolerate them sliding into a comfort zone after wrapping up the one-day series against South Africa. Despite seeing his hopes of a 5-0 whitewash shattered by the Cardiff rain, with only three overs bowled on Wednesday before the fifth and final match was abandoned, Pietersen said he was satisfied with the progress made.
Arthur threatens to axe seniorsSouth Africa coach Mickey Arthur hinted that some of the senior members of his team may have played their last one-day internationals following the 4-0 one-day series defeat by England. The home side completely dominated the one-day series after losing the Test series 2-1 in August.
Pietersen, Flintoff to be rested in SeptemberEngland captain Kevin Pietersen and all-rounder Andrew Flintoff are among seven players who have been made unavailable to their counties for the rest of the English domestic season. England coach Peter Moores confirmed Hampshire batsman Pietersen and Lancashire star Flintoff will be rested during September following the final one-day international against South Africa at Cardiff on Wednesday.
Flintoff puts newfound form down to promotionEngland all-rounder Andrew Flintoff believes his promotion to number five has boosted his form with the bat. Flintoff starred in Sunday's seven wicket win over South Africa in the fourth one-day international at Lord's scoring 31 not out to add to half centuries at Headingley and the Oval.

Arizona Cardinals
Notes from the Nest: Arizona Cardinals practice - Nov. 27
TEMPE, Ariz. -- The Cardinals had the joy of practicing outside on what was a simply glorious day. This is why we live in Arizona, folks.
Of Note
- Bruce Arians told us the team was healthy and there did not appear to be any key players missing from the practice field.
- As usual, Karlos Dansby spent time on the sideline catching passes. He had that pick-six against the Colts, but any dropped passes before that was not due to a lack of practice time.
- Dan Buckner, who is on the practice squad, is fired up for the Territorial Cup matchup between his Arizona Wildcats and the Arizona State Sun Devils. Since he does not travel with the Cardinals, he plans on being in Tempe Saturday to watch the game.
Stat of the Day
Eagles quarterback Nick Foles has thrown 162 passes this season without being picked off. The Cardinals are tied for third in the NFL in interceptions, so something is going to have to give.
Quote of the Day
"He hasn't told you what I do to him almost every time we break the huddle," a smiling Cardinals DB Patrick Peterson said when asked of linebacker Karlos Dansby's 'super-soft hands.' "I have to rub his hands; kind of give him some of my grip.
"But he's been doing a great job. Man, he could be in the race for defensive MVP if he caught the last six he dropped. But he got the one, hopefully this will get him over the hump."
This Day in Arizona Cardinals History
On November 27, 2008, the Cardinals went to Philadelphia to play the Eagles on Thanksgiving night.
And it was as ugly as the 48-20 final score would suggest.
The Eagles raced out to a 21-0 lead courtesy of running back Brian Westbrook, who caught two touchdown passes while adding another score via the ground. A Kurt Warner to Larry Fitzgerald pass got the Cards on the board, but it was 24-7 heading into the half, and 31-7 after Westbrook added another touchdown early in the third quarter.
The Cardinals added a pair of touchdowns (TD receptions by Steve Breaston and Fitzgerald), but the Eagles had a field goal in between those and added another two touchdowns to finish off the route.
For the game, Warner completed 21-of-29 passes for 235 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions. The Cardinals also managed a paltry 25 yards on 10 carries.
On the other hand, the Eagles had themselves quite an evening. QB Donovan McNabb completed 27-of-39 passes for 260 yards with four touchdowns, while Westbrook added 110 yards rushing and another 20 receiving, along with his four total touchdowns.
It was a rough night for the Cardinals, but at least they got some revenge a couple months later...

Mom was ready for another kitty, and Linus' breeder had a special boy - Me! My breeders would have kept me as a "stud", but didn't need another boy. Then I was supposed to go to a breeder in Russia as a "stud", but she changed her mind at the last minute. So, when Mom called, they offered me to her as a show alter.

For U.S. President Foster (Mark Harmon), the dream is a reality and his teenaged daughter Anna (Mandy Moore) is doomed to a life of chaperoned chastity. Until, on a state visit to Europe, she gives the feds the slip and makes a break for freedom. Or so she thinks turns out the handsome guy on a moped (a photographer, natch, played by Matthew Goode) who helps her escape is an F.B.I. agent in disguise and her father is actually monitoring her progress through Prague, Venice, Austria and Berlin. Really, it's just a pale imitation of the delightful Roman Holiday (1953), in which Audrey Hepburn plays a princess who escapes her obligations and runs straight into the arms of journalist Gregory Peck. If you're thinking about renting Chasing Liberty and you've never seen Roman Holiday, you should rent Roman Holiday. Hell, if you have seen Roman Holiday, rent it again. But does Chasing Liberty stand up? It's certainly fun enough all very madcap, very sunny, very Eurodisney. Moore and Goode are cute and charming, and Jeremy Piven and Annabella Sciorra do the best they can with a cliché-ridden subplot about the F.B.I. agents chasing them down. In fact, it's hard to really dislike this bit of fluff it succeeds perfectly at what it sets out to do: provide a good date movie for 16-year-olds with no real interest in watching the movie. The DVD is loaded with inane extras: a super-chirpy but unenlightening commentary by Goode and Moore, concert footage of the Roots, a gag reel that for some reason contains only Jeremy Piven's antics (is it possible that no one else was ever spontaneously funny?). The worst of it is the "Passport to Europe" featurette, in which Moore and Goode reveal their travel tips, which amounts to the sage advice that when you're in Prague, Venice, Austria or Berlin, you really should a) see the sights and b) bring your camera. Plus: trailer, additional scenes. (Warner) GET IT!

One of the features we liked best about the Biltmore was its oasis-like calm in the middle of hard-charging Miami. Each morning my partner and I would set off to explore a different aspect of the city--South Beach, Little Havana, Coconut Grove, North Miami, Downtown. When we returned, often after hours spent on foot, or in traffic, or in the ocean, just the sight of the Biltmore's tower poking up through the palm trees made us feel happy. We were home. There is a languid, old-world grace about the place. In our Tower suite (a surprise upgrade) with its marble floors, spacious rooms and glorious views both night and day, we felt recharged. In the enormous pool, we felt refreshed. In our daily contact with the staff, we felt cared for and welcomed. No matter what the next day brought (whether it be the thrill of finding an authentic Cuban sandwich or the aggravation of being cut off by yet another Hummer) the Biltmore opened its arms and wrapped us in its terry-clothed cocoon whenever we returned.

The void in leadership that Long's absence created became the monster of Incognito's bullying. Long was th ... More >>
Be honest with yourselves, Dolphins fans: After watching two straight ticker-tape parades down Biscayne Boulevard by that other pro team in town, it's gotten harder and harder to get jazzed up for preseason Fins games that basically amount to flag football contests. But this is 2013, and for the fir ... More >>
With the NFL's annual tradition of wealthy, white-haired men selecting young, able-bodied (mostly) black men to perform physical endeavors for comparatively negligible pay aimed at aggrandizing the wealthy men's financial station, we're taking a look at who the Dolphins SHOULD pick -- and how they'l ...

Stop bitching about the Dolphins drafting tactics, because according to one analysis, the team has been the second most successfully in the NFL over the past five years. Of course, looking at the Dolphins overall success over the past five years makes you wonder exactly how accurate the analysis is.
Sunday's action featured the incredible story of an extraordinary athlete's return from a horrific injury to come back against all odds, put his team on his back and lead that now playoff-bound team to victory just as the hero himself nearly broke one of the most coveted records in NFL lore. That wa ... More >>
So it comes to this: your Miami Dolphins take that loooong west coast flight to face the 8-3 San Francisco 49ers. A few weeks ago this looked like a great matchup: a rising Dolphins team with playoff hopes facing the one-time object of our affection, Jim Harbaugh, and the team he turned us down for. ... More >>
A funny thing is happening with this year's installment of Hard Knocks.

The Philadelphia Eagles helped head coach Andy Reid win the Mustachioed Overweight Coach Who Has Overstayed His Welcome Bowl when they blew away the Dolphins 26-10 yesterday.

The Dolphins home opener is tonight at Sun Life Stadium.Everybody in the world is talking about the keys to the game. Can Chad Henne pass? Can Reggie Bush run?

The NFL recently unveiled its list of the top 100 players for the 2011 season, and at least one football team in town is really, uncontrollably, super excited about it. No, it's not the one that actually plays in the NFL. The Dolphins placed three players on the list, but the Miami Hurr ... More >>
Last week, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross gave his vote of confidence to head coach Tony Sparano. The consensus has been that Sparano would keep his job, despite the team's second consecutive losing season. Mainly because the players love and respect him. And even though Sunday's game against the New E ... More >>

On a night where the NFL Network previewed an upcoming documentary on Bill Parcells and his football genius, the Dolphins team he built was busy rushing for 39 total-yards and throwing for 187 on their way to their first shutout loss in three seasons. The Dolphins were manhandled and dominated in ... More >>
TILT! ... TILT! ... TIL* ... It took three quarterbacks to do it, but the Miami Dolphins were able to pull off the 29-17 victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, earning the Fins their first home win of the season. That's the good news. The bad news? The entire starting roster is injured and ... More >>
ESPN is reporting that Miami Dolphins football czar Bill Parcells has packed his bags and moved out of the Dolphins offices. The Dolphins, of course, knew that Parcells was on his way out. But it seems that no one anticipated it to be this soon. Because why would they? Reports out of Dolphins cam ... More >>
If Florida A&M's goal was to come out and get completely annihilated in the most humbling way imaginable, then mission accomplished because The U came out and crushed the Rattlers 45-0 last night.

It was looking for a while like no Dolphins players would be playing in their home stadium during this year's Pro Bowl. Offensive Tackle Jake Long was named to the original line-up but pulled out due to injury Thanks to yesterday's Colts win, safety Antoine Bethea will forgo the Pro Bowl for&nb ... More >>
Since 1980, the Pro Bowl has been played in Hawaii, and because our 50th state doesn't have a team of its own, it's been a nice opportunity for locals to catch some NFL action, even if the players don't typically bring their best game. But this year's Pro Bowl will take place in Miami, with ... More >>

First things first: Ricky Williams is now officially the Ambassador of Fucking Your Shit Up and Knocking Fools' Dicks Into the Dirt after last night's brilliant 119-yard, three-touchdown performance.

The Patriots punted once in the entire game during yesterday's 48-28 win over the Dolphins. Once. New England's offense totaled 530 yards -- the most the Dolphins defense has allowed since 1995. You could still catch brand new episodes of Seinfeld the last time the Dolphins allowed that many yards. ... More >>
Around the middle of the third quarter Sunday, nine Miami-Dade cops marched into my section at the Dolphins game and dragged off a vociferous Jets fan, who flashed the crowd a victory sign as he headed for the calaboose. That kinda said it all. Sunday's Dolphin game, which the team lost to the Jet ... More >>
It seems that the Dolphins scored a pretty nice draft grade across the board from various experts yesterday. For example, the Star-Telegram called the Chiefs and the Dolphins the biggest winners of the draft and awarded them each the highest grades of all the NFL teams. And CBS Sports gave the Fins ...

Now that we have our first pick locked down, we can sit back, relax and analyze what we got in our man Jake Long. Never has game film for an offensive-lineman made me so excited. That's right. Excited. Boner city? Well, no, not quite. But excited nonetheless.
Bill Parcells confirmed with the New York Daily News last week that he is, in fact, willing to trade out of the first overall pick. We all would like him to do this for a number of reasons -- mainly to get more picks so he can have more flexibility to fix our numerous problems. Also, because there i ... More >>
For the record: I think Chris Long is an exceptional defensive end. And I will be very pleased if Miami ends up drafting him. Howevah! I do think that Vernon Gholston is a better prospect. He's a more gifted athlete, more explosive and a more versatile player. His skills, to me, seem as if they wi ... More >>
Armando Salguero has a conference call with Mel Kiper posted on his blog. But that's not important. What is important is that he wrote about a rumor making the rounds in Indy that the Falcons are reportedly so in love with BC quarterback Matt Ryan that they might consider trading up to get him. They ... More >>
Continuing our free agent talk from yesterday, we now turn to the offense: Offensive Line The Dolphins released LJ Shelton and Anthony Alabi this week. Which means they're definitely in the market for some beef. Some have said this makes it a sure thing that Parcells will draft Jake Long. Let's no ... More >>
I was resigned to defeat. I was sure my alma mater, University of Michigan, would lose by 20 points or more to the fast, option-running Florida Gators.
