WonderCon 2008
Posted By
We had mentioned WonderCon in a couple of previous posts, but I am not sure that we really promoted the event itself. Well here we go...WonderCon is making its triumphant return to San Francisco from February 22nd to the 24th. Held at the Moscone Center South, the event will feature such
Star Wars
related guests at Peter Mayhew and C. Andrew Nelson. Lets also not forget that the R2 Builders Club will be hosting a panel on the 23rd at 1:30. (As we had posted about
Our friend Doug C. wrote in with the following:
"According to the layout on the WonderCon website, Mayhew & Nelson will be sitting next to each other in the Autograph area of the convention floor. Mayhew is always charming and Nelson is a storehouse of knowledge about the Star Wars franchise, visual effects, acting, and the whole film industry. It should be lots of fun having these two next to each other. Oh, and for THX-1138 fans (of which I'm one), Don Pedro Colley will also be at the show."
Thanks Doug!

Phoenix Chowhound travelling to Norwalk
- Billy Bob Dec 21, 2006 01:28 PM
LA Hounds,
My wife and I are travelling to Norwalk to visit our daughter for two days next week. We don't mind higher end places, but lean more towards the "hidden jewels" family run type of places. Any style of cuisine will do, we love em all and are very adventurous eaters. I realize LA is gigantic, so I would like to limit the drive to within a 30 minute radius of Norwalk.
So let's hear your recommendations. Thanks
Bill and Julie
You'll be hard-pressed to find good eats in Norwalk proper, but you've got a few places within a few minutes drive.
Your best bet is probably Artesia, where you will find a few dozen indian restaurants covering a pretty wide range of Indian cooking styles. Personally, I think the south indian restaurants in this area are stronger than the north indian restaurants, but that might be a statement of personal preference.
Within 30 minutes of Norwalk, you'll have all of East LA and downtown LA at your disposal. A few recommendations... Tacos Baja Ensenada for first-rate fish tacos in East LA, La Serenata de Garibaldi in Boyle Heights for higher-end Mexican, Phillippe's for old school french dip sandwiches downtown, Sushi Gen for outstanding sushi downtown, Seoul Garden for Korean, Langer's for the world's finest pastrami (downtown), and Mama's Hot Tamales downtown for arguably the best tamales in LA.
Unfortunately, one of the best Thai restaurants I've ever heard of, Renu Nakorn, is closed for remodelling. However, tuck this recommendation away for your next visit.
re: glutton
Yes. Renu Nakorn is the gem of Norwalk.
In the Cerritos/Artesia area, there is a really great Korean tofu place in the mall where Albertson's is at. You might be able to find the address through chowhound.
You might want to travel out to the San Gabriel Valley for some good Chinese food.
Taps in Brea has good seafood.
Depending on your timing, you may be able to get to the San Gabriel Valley for Chinese food -- a huge string of Chinese places from Fullerton Rd. (east of the 605) all the way back to the 710. Especially good would be any of the dim sum houses (if you go for lunch) -- 888, NBC, CBS, Ocean Star, Mission 261, Triumphal Palace, the list goes on and on and on. For Shanghainese, Green Village at 250 E. Valley Blvd. in San Gabriel. For Mongolian hotpot, Xiao Fei Yang (Little Sheep) adjacent to the San Gabriel Hilton. Others have many, many more suggestions.
Also nearby would be Jagerhaus German Restaurant in Anaheim; the Original Pancake House in Anaheim; Thai Nakorn in Garden Grove (which might be pushing the 30 minutes juuuuuuuuust a bit); Merhaba Eritrean Restaurant on Ball and Dale in Anaheim/Stanton.
I live in that area. It's true. There is really nothing in Norwalk. I'd also recommend going up pioneer ave to Artesia for some great indian food. there are also some korean restaraunts around there. I'd venture further like the above poster recommended.
Goldilocks in cerritos has good philipino food.
also in whittier there is
Birrieria Chalio
11300 Washington Blvd, Whittier, CA 90606
for just birria, with fresh tortillas. go for breakfast. expect to wait. hole in wall
fish tacos in brea
El Taco Nazo
there is closer one in santa fe springs but you don't feel weird sitting in this one.
I think the original location of La Husteca is close to Norwalk (at least the part that's close to 605). San Gabriel Valley is within 30 minutes if there's no traffic (have to go north on 605, then 10 west for most of the restaurants), but if there's traffic it can be more.
Rowland Heights (for chinese food) is no more than 30 minutes if you do local roads (go east on imperial, turn left at Harbor).
Cerritos also have a few chinese restaurants.
Shahnawaz feels as if it's in Norwalk, although it's a couple of blocks away in Lakewood. Very good Pakistani cooking.
Everybody, thanks for all of the recommendations. Too bad about Renu Nakorn being closed, it was the one place that jumped out in my search of past posts. I like the idea of Indian food in Artesia, especially since I just went to Bangalore a couple of months ago (I'll actually know what I am ordering <grin>). The Pakastani place sounds interesting as well. I will report back on what we decide to try.
Thanks again
If you're in Norwalk and don't feel like driving and just want something fast, try Rancho Grande...
Rancho Grande
10935 E. Rosecrans
Norwalk (in the strip mall behind Crawford's)
I grew up in Norwalk and that's the one place I make sure to go when I'm ever in the area. Excellent mexican food. Just a little place with an order counter and about ten tables, but its really good. They always seem to be busy. I started eating there about 15 years ago- that's got to say something (menu says open since 1974). I really like the nachos but everything else is good too- especially the beans. Free chips and salsa. You're making me want to go back.... :-)

TOKYO (AP) — A Japanese coast guard official says a search is under way for a ship carrying 80 dock workers that was swept away when a tsunami struck the northeastern coast.
The vessel was washed away from a shipbuilding site in Miyagi prefecture (state). That's the area most affected by a massive offshore earthquake on Friday. The quake triggered the tsunami.

That Miller wrote more than 250 articles between January 2001 and April 2002 doesn't qualify her as best writer, even though that's a heap of stories. Interpret the quantity as a sign that Miller stays doggedly on top of her beat. For a year, Miller followed a story she broke on April 12, 2001, on the use of powerful psychiatric drugs to control hard-to-manage children in the state's foster-care program. On March 14, 2002, she reported that a bill to curb the use of such drugs passed the Florida House by a vote of 114-1. This year, Miller has been reporting on statewide problems with investigations into child abuse and neglect reports. After stories by Miller, the Florida Department of Children & Families fired a private company in March whose employees allegedly had cleared cases without investigating them in order to meet quotas. She also reported later that month that the backlog of child-abuse and -neglect reports in the state had soared from 4000 to 50,000 in two years due to an increase in calls to the state hotline and that because of that, thousands of cases had "remained untouched by investigators for over a year." Miller keeps finding stuff we need to know and then hammering it until something is done to make it right. And that's good.

when your taking a shit & your ass really hurts when a big piece of shit is coming out
man i just had fireball now my ass really hurts
by luisrubioXD November 26, 2011
Whiskey that many teenagers drink because it is farely strong (33% alcohol) and doesn't taste bad,has a cinnomon taste, so it is easy to chug and get drunk quick.
Man i chugged a quart of fireball before the dance and the cops were all over my ass with the breathaliser as soon as i walked in.
by ....anonomys June 20, 2006
a REALLY hot guy
(Natalie and Gaby are at the mall and see a hot guy.)

I enjoy the freedom of being an online entrepreneur. Owning and operating an internet business provides versatility for me and gives me time to do the special things with my family. Recently I decided to start doing seminars also. The reason for this, is there are many people that don't have a clue about what it takes to promote their business online. I have talked to many people about their online business and one thing stood out....."HOW DO YOU GET TO PAGE #1 ? CAN YOU HELP ME?' So, why not - I enjoy helping people! Creation is a great thing and if you can help someone create a new life for themselves - why not? I belong to quite a few web 2.0 sites and if you wish to learn more, just follow me and I will follow you. As you can see, I enjoy what I do. How about you?

Good Morning
" God grant me the serenity t9 accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference "
What a wonderful thought to begin the day way with, I feel like if I have a good beginning with this day it will end better. " Begin the day with God "
This thought was sent to Mary by Joan on a birthday card. DAD
I need a cup of Starbucks Sumatra x bold, right now, its not even in the pot here at 1:05 a.m., excuse me while I get every thing perking, now don't you laugh at me, I am not out of my head, if you do laugh I will be a little slow in pouring you a cup. DAD.
Some of you may think it strange that I write this blog in the middle of the night, I will gladly tell you why, I have readers in some parts of the world where at this moment the sun is shining brightly and I do want them to read this , because some of them may be producing tomatoes
, " The sun never sets on Dads Tomato Garden "
The weather looks very good here in east Tennessee , at 7:15 a.m. the tem. is 46, and looking out my office window can see no rain. I hope that we have a clear sunny day, because the eagles are back, the link to view them will be down below. We enjoyed them so much last season. Dad
This will be all for a little while, I am going to fold up my tent and try to do a little work in the office, it is raining outside. I will be around all day as usual.

Mildred Patricia Baena: Maria Shriver Response to Scandal Was "Compassionate"by Free Britney at . Comments
"Last summer, I brought Joseph over to the house ... and people in the house started whispering about how much they looked like each other." - Mildred Patricia Baena on her love child with Arnold Schwarzenegger
Among those noticing the resemblance? Maria Shriver.
"Maria would ask if I needed to talk to her... I kept saying no. Finally, she asked point blank," Baena told Hello! regarding the moment Shriver learned that Schwarzenegger impregnated their staff member more than a decade ago.
"Maria asked me directly if Joseph was Arnold's son, and I just broke down crying, saying that yes he was and I was so sorry," she recalls.
Hearing the news, Maria was surprisingly compassionate and kind. "She cried with me and told me to get off my knees," she says of Shriver.
"Since I was retiring soon, I said I'd pack and leave right away," says Mildred "Patty" Baena, "but she said to stay until after the holidays."
Schwarzenegger's reaction? Baena says she never told Arnold directly that Joseph was his, but for the 13-year-old, the reaction was simple:
"Cool!" he said.It's fortunate, in the silver lining sense, that the youngster never had a strong male presence or father figure in his life in the first place.
Putting yourself in his shoes, having an absentee non-dad (sorry, Rogelia Baena) replaced by Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't the worst thing.
As for Maria Shriver, it doesn't surprise us that she would handle even the most difficult situation with the class and dignity she's known for.
[Photos: WENN.com]
Everyone always blames the other woman. Arnold was married and living with his family. It would have been different if he was separated and living alone. He had absolutely no business even looking at this woman who on top of it all knew all his family. He is so egotistical he thinks he can do anything and get away with it. As far as Baena who knows what he told her. I do not defend her in any way at all. If Arnold wanted to go with other woman he should have separated or got a divorce first. He was only thinking of himself alone. He will probably get remarried and live happily ever after. Maria and Baena are the ones who will suffer along with the children. He will probably have more in the future. He is truly every womans nightmare.
Maria, Ican oly say that this too will pass. I'm proud of the way you make a real women look. Keep your head to th sky. Someone who understands.
The Tits That Ate Tokyo
She should get breast implants so her gigantor breasts can be even BIGGER, preferably the size of the Hindenberg (Ahhnuld would like that!).
I am compasionate too to a nazi seed, I would put both of his necks on the log and cut off for both heads to drop on the mud as hid father has done to innocent Jews with compasion.
Maria seems to have a good heart but as far as I am concerned I wouldn't be so good to her but don't forget this happened many years ago and she probably knew sooner than we think so her anger was watered down quite a bit because of length of time. But I cannot understand how anyone would do this kind of thing to such a nice person as Maria if anything I would report him to his wife and tell her what he is doing to her.
I have no compassion for this LEECH I cannot understand how women that work in someones house around Maria's children can do the things she did. This is way I don't trust women just because of situations as such but this, she was an employee that was so jealous and wanted to be&live the life style of Maria that she lived in such a fantasy world. In her bedroom all over the house it sickens me that this low life would do what she did as far as Arnold is concern it can't be printed into words. I hate the
both of them the fact that this slut would go there it just shows how low women would go to destroy someones marriage. I hope they both rot in HELL! I certainly agree she should pack her up and leave the country with her bastard child!
Mildred Baena is sooo so very unatrractive, I think the truth is: As a housekeeper, she found one of Arnolds condoms with semen inside, and injected the semen into her vagina with a turkey baster. Then she waited until a morning after he was totally drunk and waisted the night before and lead him to believe that they had sex. She kept her silence to the wife, as if she was being loyal to Arnold, all the while waiting for the big woohoo gottcha.
Or.... she actually climbed her big ass onto him, when he so drunk he couldn't recognized Baena from a whole in the wall and she actually got him to ejaculate in her.
kukuli, From what I am reading I realize you don't know one iota of what you are talking about. And you have the longest trash of a comment. Don't form opinion about the woman. She did not go after Arnold. He took her and she kept quiet. At least the first time. Then they do it over and over for over 15 years, assuming he stop after the pregnancy. You are only jealous that Arnold did not go for you, but your mouth run so much that we all know the result if it was you. I thing that said it all. So now keep your opinion to yourself. And stop commenting on the internet. Period. And leave people's business alone.
Oh well...it doesn't matter anymore Arnold screwed up big time. He has a son from that Guatemalan "Pork Chop". Therefore I feel so bad for Maria Shriver, if Maria takes everything from Arnold in a divorce case she has every right to do that. How can Arnold be so shallowy stupid, but like I said...it doesn't matter anymore.

FREMONT COUNTY - Two dozen firefighters are working to build a defensible position for fighting a wildfire burning near Penrose. According to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), firefighters are building indirect containment lines around the Eightmile Fire, but aren't actively fighting it. The fire grew dramatically Friday morning, increasing in size from 1/2 acre to 60 acres. By Friday afternoon, the fire had grown to 100 acres in size.
In addition to the 24 firefighters on scene, 4 hot shot crews are on order, and several aircraft are involved in the fight.
When News 5 asked why the fire hadn't been aggressively attacked when it was only 1/2 acre, BLM spokesman Ralph Bellah pointed to the treacherous terrain that the fire is burning and said that it would have been too dangerous for the firefighters.

Slimmer by Spring -- February Edition
The thread for the new month
Good morning. I guess my body was craving sleep because I turned off my alarm and slept until 5:30! No workout this morning, but I had an excellent one yesterday. We went to a powerlifting meet last night - that was cool watching those kids lift weights. Then dd has her last freshman bb game tonight before she starts her stint with the varsity. Tomorrow we are going to a place called Mud Creek with my middle sister. It's an open road area for 4-wheeling. We will get muddy but it will be a blast! I already scoped out a lot of geocaches.
Beth - so glad you made it to the gym and felt good about it. Glad you are feeling better!
Diane - so do you get a reduced grade for not turning in an assignment? I hope you get them both done and can mark those off your list. So happy you get to go to San Diego and surprise your parents! Yay!! Project San Diego is funny! What good motivation!!
Rachel - where is your choir competition this weekend? A lot of traveling? Hope you got your treadmill workout in and feel good! I am going to do the same as you - pack a large thermal bag with my foods for the mud day trip to stay on plan. My goal for next weekend for the Hot Chocolate race is to be in the 180's. Gawww that looks good! It will have been since 1997 since I have seen that number.
Guess we lost Tom?
Have a great day and great weekend everyone!!
Ouch! Woke up with a pretty decent migraine. Don't know if it's from the bump on my head or not. I took meds as soon as I woke up with it, but hours later it is still nagging. It is SO COLD here! I didn't go to the gym this morning because the roads were bad.. we got some snow last night, and schools were on a delay. Wasn't a good idea with this migraine anyway. Look forward to step tomorrow.
Ok this is Day 1 of Op.SD! My starting weight is 195.4... eww. I had Chipotle soft steak tacos last night as a treat before getting really strict (I decided on soft tacos because it is a lot less food than a burrito bowl). I plan to do a LOT of painting this weekend, and I'm actually pretty anxious to get started! I would have done it last night but I had Psychology homework.
Over Spring Break we are going to be doing a really fun project for painting class! I can't wait! We are collaborating with an English class.. without knowing who, we are going to be doing a painting inspired by a short story someone from the Eng, class writes. THEY will also have to write a short story based on one of our paintings! She asked us painting II students which paintings we would use (that were done last semester).. I knew right away my Freedom painting would be the best one. Sounds like it will be a lot of fun!
Charlene: It depends.. it could be a letter grade lower, but several people weren't there, so we may just critique them next week, and it's never happened with me before so maybe she will cut me a break. Even if I do get a lower grade, it won't hurt me.
Good morning!
I slept late this morning. I guess I needed it. I thought I would be pretty tired after working out yesterday (not like it was really a hard workout, but I'm still just getting over this virus). At least I had some energy when I started the workout. My abs are a little sore, which is why I like the rower because I also get an upper body and ab workout, not just legs. I think I'll go again today but ride the bike. We have a gig tomorrow night so I'm thinking I won't be at the gym for the next two days. The gig is enough of a workout, bending, lifting, stretching and hauling.
Diane--Operation San Diego :hyst:. That's great motivation! So cool that you'll be able to surprise your parents and see your family. And that your dd and ds can go also. You need a boost! and a break! So when exactly will you be heading out this way?
Charlene--sometimes our bodies just need rest and it is the best thing to do to honor that. Otherwise its to easy to get sick or hurt ourselves. Your weekend sounds like a lot of fun! Its so cool that your kids are such athletes, and that you and your dh are also. I wish I had that drive when i was a kid. Of course, that was before title 9. I've struggled with being athletic all of my life. There is a part of me that wants to, and another that doesn't. I never played in team sports so I had no idea what team work meant. It was a hard lesson to learn. And I had exercise induced asthma (which is how my asthma started) thanks to both of my parents smoking. Hard to have fun when you're gasping for breath. I'm too old and decrepit to be much of an athlete now (unless you count golf) but I do want to stay active-that old use it or lose it mentality. I used to do high impact aerobics in the 80s and ran a bit, which might explain the fact that I have no knees left.
Rachel--how are you doing today? Danville isn't too terribly far, is it? Not like Crete? Hope you have a fun weekend and pack those snacks.
On with the day! have a good one!
Ugh! I left my laptop charger at work! Now I will have to go tomorrow to get it. I did VERY well today food wise, but was fighting a migraine all day. Dinner was yummy.. scrambled eggs with chives, and swiss cheese and a little sour cream. This weekend I will be painting a lot which will keep me busy and away from temptation! I'll check in when I can.. after I get my charger back!
Never made it to the gym today. !/2 through the laundry the dryer stops working. It would tumble but wasn't hot. So I had to drag three loads of wet laundry to the laundromat to dry it. It will be a week before they can come out to fix it. Hopefully its fixable and we don't have to replace it. Its probably about 10 years old and its not like we use it alot compared to some people. I also made some killer chicken tortilla soup. My gosh it was good and really hit the spot. My hamstring is bothering me, I really need to get to the chiropractor next week.
Diane--hope you get that charger back soon. Sounds like you're doing well on your eating.
See ya all in the morning!
Posting from my phone so this will be short... I'm down almost 3 lbs since yesterday! Woo Hoo! Still have remnants of that migraine but planning to go to the gym.. hope the roads are ok.
I'll check back later...
Good morning all!
I think that I might make it to the gym for some cardio today since I didn't go yesterday. We have a gig again tonight (the fourth one this year, with another one next Friday, another one the Thursday after that and another one the Saturday after that) I'm ready for a weekend off. And I'm having lunch with a former colleague today.
Diane--woohoo on being down 3 pounds. You'll be out of the 90s in no time!
Charlene--hope your having fun mudding!
Rachel--how is the competition?
Have a good day all.
This is my 1400th post.
Yay! Got my charger back! I didn't go to the gym because we got more snow and there were a lot of closings in my area, so I didn't want to risk driving. The roads were fine later in the day so I ran some errands.. Staples, Hobby Lobby, Jungle Jims (I should not go there when I am hungry!) I was good though. Not drinking enough so far though.
Beth: I forgot to answer your question.. the first week of March.. so four weeks to lose as much as I can! We are trying to figure out a way I can stay hidden for a short time. My sister said my kids and I should make a video since we "cant be there" and while it's playing we walk out.. but then I would miss seeing them when they get there for the surprise of the party itself. Then I thought what if we were disguised? LOL
Scale down a little more 191.2 :) TOM should be gone in the next day or so as well, so I am hoping to see the 80s again by then. That's over 4 lbs in 2 days!
I was way too tired to go to the gym this morning. I was looking forward to it, but my head is still sore and I had that nagging migraine Friday (on the same side I bumped) and felt like it was on the edge of coming back yesterday. I just feel a little weird, but not enough to have to see a doctor. I just feel like I need to take it easy a few days.
I did not work on my painting yesterday, but I did buy a few more supplies and prepping for it.. thinking ahead about the colors instead of slopping things together to see what I comne up with. I want to get this one as close to the photo as I can, but ohhhh boy I better work on it today since it's due Wednesday! I need to lock myself up in my room and do nothng else!
I'll check in later...
Good morning! I am so sore!! But what a fun day yesterday! I am so proud of my youngest! She took control of that dune buggy and went through a day of being stuck and maneuvering in some pretty wicked places.
Diane - yay on being down 3 pounds!!! That's awesome! Hope you get your painting done.
Beth - y'all are really busy with those music gigs! That's awesome you are getting so many but I bet you are worn out!
Rest day today. Doing some cleaning and laundry and getting ready for the work week.
Have a GREAT day!!
Good morning all!
I made it to the gym yesterday with DH and did 35 minutes on the rower. I'm getting back my energy, not that anyone will be able to tell today. Had lunch with a former colleague. The news is not good out there on the job front. There are so many in my profession at my level that are out of a job. Makes me believe that I need to start my own consulting practice and/or consider changing professionals all together. Thank goodness dh has a good job right now and that they increased his hours. I'm hoping that they will find the finding to continue the program. Given the success of the program and the way it save the County money in the long run, I'm hoping it will get funded. The are looking for a grant for the next three years.
The gig was great last night and the band had a birthday cupcake for me and sang happy birthday. I was really touched. They are playing at a winery in three weeks and I'm going up there this week to check out the space and figure out what we need and how to set up. DH and I have been kept in spending money for the last month and given what we'll make this months, it should take us through March. I really appreciate the extra dough.
Diane--WOOHOO on being down 4 pounds in 2 days. You'll knock those extra pounds right out of the park this month. :jumpjoy: Now get to work on that painting!:)
Charlene--you looked like you had so much fun yesterday! Enjoy yourself today and get ready for the week.
Rachel--how did the singers do?
On to the day. I'm tired. Didn't get to bed until after 1 and was awake by 7. I couldn't get to sleep last night because my leg is throbbing. Must go to chiropractor!
BTW--did I mention GO NINERS!
Weight was the same today - kind of surprised about that, I expected a little loss at least. I would LIKE to be 188 by the end of this week. I decided since I am STILL fighting a migraine I would skip the gym again. I wouldn't doubt I have a mild concussion. Don't get me wrong, I WANT to go to step class... I miss it! My gut feeling has been to take it easy a few days. You know that initial "shock" feeling you have when you first get hit in the head? I still feel that weirdness just a bit. I still can't believe I hit my head THAT hard just coming up from picking up a sock! :laugh:
I finally started my renaissance painting last night. I got the background done, and her clothes are about half done. The face is the part that scares me the most.. and the hair should be fun.. hair seems to be my specialty. If I can get this done tonight, then maybe I can still throw that still life together by Wednesday! I also have a sketch for a new "Diamondback" type oil pastel that I am anxious to start on... and I have to finish the dog painting for my DS22.
I'll check back in later to see how ya'll are doing.
Good morning (afternoon) all!
I'm a disappointed puppy today. :dunno: The Niners lost and everyone around here is walking around with their chin on the ground. Oh well, no one expected we would get there at all. There's always next year (which is a classic line for this Cubs fan).:lol: I'm debating about going to the gym today. My left leg/hamstring is so horribly sore and I don't know if its from a pull or from sciatica. I'm taking more heavy duty meds which don't seem to help and it wakes me up in the middle of the night. Will definitely go to the chiropractor today and if that doesn't help will call my doc about getting some PT for it. I had a bit of migraine yesterday too so I have a bit of a migraine med hangover.
Diane--your body is probably adjusting to the fast loss. I find that when I drop a few pounds fast, it takes a few days before the scale starts moving again. Don't be disappointed, it will move in the right direction. Can't wait to see this week's artwork!
Charlene--how you doing?
Rachel? Hello?
Have a good day all.
Good Evening Slimmers!
It's been a few days since I've been on the treadmill. I should be able to get a good workout in tomorrow morning before I watch my nephews. Eating is so so. Back to the grind for me today.
Singers got 4th runner up out of 20 schools. Not as good as I feel they did. Show choir judging is alot of politics and that stinks!!! Danville is only a 2 hour drive so we were home at 1:00 am. Still a long day but doable! This weekend is going to be a different story. We are traveling to a town west of St. Louis. Bus is leaving at 2:30 AM and return time is after 3:00 AM the next day. And.......I am bus chaperone!!:sad: That folks is going to be one long day!!
beth: Loved seeing your doggie covered up with a blanket!! So adorable!!
charlene: I'm jealous of your mudding pictures!! My family would all love that!
diane: Great job on being down 4 lbs in 2 days!!! That rocks!!
Good morning. I'm still whooped! I didn't work out yesterday and not sure why. I was up. dd14 started her stint with varsity yesterday and so she lost her study hall 4th period to practice varsity athletics, then 8th period she had freshman athletics to do track practice, then after school back to practice with the varsity bb. When I got home from dd12's last bb game last night, dd14 was out already. Bless her heart.
This weekend is my Dallas 5K. A friend of mine and I are riding together and staying two nights. Another lady has rented us a limo for Saturday evening. I'm gonna need to rest up for this gig. LOL I think I am driving to the school today to do a run and then do some gym training the rest of the week.
Beth - hope your leg gets better. That was such a cute pic of the dog!
Rachel - yikes!!! I can't even imagine a day like that! Holy cow!!! Good luck! Rest up this week if you can! ;)
Diane - stick with it - you're making progress! Can't wait to see the paintings.
Hope you all have a great day!
My painting is coming along, but I had hoped to have more done by now. The skin tones and face are what are scaring me. Lucy was simple.. 3 tones.. but this one needs more than that.
The scale was up a tad.. I wasn't bad I just ate too much yesterday. I wasn't feeling right, and went to bed upset because my head felt so weird. I woke up feeling better (I thought) but after getting up for a while I got another headache.. this time not a migraine but a throbbing headache (on the same side). I feel slightly nauseated, and just bleh. So I am taking the day off work and going to the doctor. Why not? Better safe than sorry... I know after hitting your head it can take weeks or longer to feel right, but I actually think I feel worse, so I'm going. Em is getting off work early to ride with me.. I hate the drive to the main campus! While I'm there I can get that migraine medicine refilled finally! I never got it again after the first bottle because I have to drive so far to get it!
I'll check back in later...
Good afternoon,
I'm not feeling all that great today either. Didn't make it to the gym or the chiropractor yesterday and it doesn't look like I'll get to the gym today either. Meeting with the band leader to go over to a venue this afternoon. I did manage to get our taxes pretty well finished. Just waiting a day or two to see if I get one more 1099 from my mom's stuff. But it shouldn't change my refund unless there was a loss (which is possible). We are getting a really nice refund, more than I expected and very needed right now. I don't need to freak out about having a job right now. And tomorrow I am going to finish out closing my mom's estate and make the final distribution.
Diane--it is a good thing that you go to the doctor. Remember what happened to Hilliary Clinton. With a head injury it is DEFINITELY better safe than sorry.
Charlene--sound like all of the fun is starting to catch up with you and you're just tired. Always good to give your body the rest it craves. You could be fighting a virus or something, which is why you're tired. Oh to having the energy of youth. Your DD is going to be way too tired to even think about getting into any trouble (not that she would).
Rachel--you're going to ride the bus to souther IL? YIKES! You are a brave woman. What a long day! Seems like your DS really enjoys it though and that's great. How is your younger DD doing? Just keep plodding on. We will all get to where we want to go eventually.
Anyway, must get ready to head out. Have a good day all!
Afternoon Slimmers!
I'm still here!! I really need to see 129 on the scale soon. I am sick of the 130s.
Yes, I am crazy being a bus chaperone this weekend! What we will do for our kids. :stars: LOL
DD18 found out Saturday night she got into the Delta Zeta sorority. She is so excited!!! I was shocked last week when she told me she was "rushing". DD18 always said she never wanted any part of Greek because those people just buy their friendships. She was very againist it until her roommate talked her into going to the informational meeting.
beth: DD14 is doing really good. She is my quiet reserved child. She is loving FFA. She has been doing alot of babysitting lately. For the last 4 weeks she has been watching a 2nd grader every day after school. She also watches him and his younger brother some on the weekends.
diane: Glad you are going to the dr. Let us know what you find out.
charlene: Sounds like you are going to have a blast this weekend!
Dragging tail.......slept in. Want to drop the kids off and come home and try to sleep but that won't happen. I may take off early and come home. If I'm tired, I know my kids are. I did get in a HIIT workout yesterday morning and will probably do that again tomorrow. Friday I will rest and we leave for Dallas after school.
Rachel - that's awesome your dd18 is so excited to be a part of a sorority. That's just another way for her to enjoy her campus life.
Bath - I haven't even started on taxes. I need to do that too.
Diane - glad you're coming along on your painting. Can't wait to see the finished products. What did the doctor say?
Hope everyone has a great day!
Good morning all!
I'm still a pretty tired puppy. I've an appointment today with my grief counselor and am going to close out my mom's bank account. Feels a little strange-its the last thing I really have to do for her estate. And I must get to the chiropractor today. I was awaken in the middle of the night by pain in my leg. And I may try to get to the gym too. I'm really lacking in motivation right now. I guess it just is how it is.
Charlene--sounds like you need a few days of down time and a lot of sleep. There's a lot going on. Anyway you can take a day off just for yourself to relax? It like a fun time this weekend.
Rachel-my bff's niece, who went to EC was, I believe, a member of DZ also. You've got a busy weekend ahead of you also.
Diane--how is the headache? Take it easy till you feel better. I got a concussion on my honeymoon (no, it is not what you think) and it took me a couple months to really get back to normal. I thought I was fine, but people around me told me that I wasn't always making sense.
DH is practicing and its annoying me this morning. I like my quiet time when he is gone. Have a good day all.
oo-boy I am wiped out. I closed out my mom's bank account today and it was more emotionally difficult than I expected. It felt so . . . final. I started crying as I was leaving. And I went to the chiropractor today. She put my back back in place (it wasn't too difficult) and then worked on several trigger points on my left thigh. YEOW! Boy did that hurt! And she told me not to work out until after I see her on Friday. I guess I'll just have to follow doctor's orders. The last 48 hours have been an emotional roller coaster.
I'm ready to fall asleep sitting up.
Good morning!
Where is everyone?
I passed out last night and slept straight through the night. My leg and back is definitely feeling better today. Still a little off, but better. Having lunch with a friend and rehearsal tonight.
Hope you are all having a good day.
Ohhh what a day.. not bad, just long! I went to pilates today, but took it easy. I didn't want a bunch of pressure on my head causing another headache, so I modified. Then, I came home and went through the ordeal of finding the right tickets at the right price. Apparently I could no longer get a morning departure at the price we found earlier, so we are leaving later, and will arrive in SD about 8:30 pm. We have to fly to NEW YORK! It always strikes me as weird to go backwards.. SD is the other direction (seems like a waste of time!) :lol: Anyway, I have never been to New York.. it's kind of weird to think about it, but if we are able to see the skyline that would be cool! The flights back are much shorter and we stop in Fort Worth I think it is. Have I mentioned that I hate flying?
OH! I don't think I told you.. my dad emailed me and said he wanted to surprise my MOM by bringing me out for her bday and their anniversary! :eek: I had to tell him I couldnt come the days he mentioned but I could come earlier (SO I CAN BE AT THE SURPRISE PARTY!) :hyst: So HE wont be surprised about ME coming, but he will still be surprised about the kids and the party.. my Mom of course will still be surprised about everything! All the drama is putting a damper on my excitement of the trip though...... (see below)
My younger sister has been the only one planning the anniversary party, but my older sister doesn't like where it's going to be so NOW she is trying to change things. UGH. Sister drama. Older sister calls me complaining almost every day. Younger sister is getting fed up. THEN, my niece who lives in Seattle asked if the party could possibly be at a different time since her Grandma (in St. Louis) passed away and the service is the same day as the party.. three weeks from now? Isn't that strange? Older sister replied that "they" will have to see if they can change it. Younger sister replied to older sisters reply and simply said it couldnt be changed since other people are coming in from out of town but maybe an informal get together the next night would be good. Ugh... so, niece misunderstands and thinks younger sister is being insensitive and told her "F.U" and have fun. Yikes! I know niece is upset, but now younger sister is ready to quit and not even go! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh help! I told younger sister to message niece and explain it wasn't a response to her post, but to older sisters.. and save face!
Oh yeah, we got an extra week to finish our renaissance paintings.. yay! SO glad because I really had to rush parts of it and wanted it to come out better. Next painting will the San Diego Mission building! Yay!
I've written so much.. sorry! I know I'm rambling!
Beth: I know that had to be hard closing your mom's account :sad: I can only imagine. :hugs: My head and your leg.. what are we gonna do? We are falling apart! Still.. I am planning on step class tomorrow and REALLY looking forward to it!
Charlene: Doc said to take it easy, no step until I feel better (I am feeling better but will be careful and go easy if I feel sick or dizzy).
Rachel: I'm with ya! But I need to see 189 soon! My weight has been hanging around 191-192 for several days. Hopefully getting back to the gym will help things start moving again.
Good morning. I have been resting - sleeping later. I did do a HIIT workout yesterday morning, but I have also been making cookies and treats for dds' teams in the evenings. I leave for Dallas today. Will be back Sunday. I tried to see about coming back after the race on Saturday, but I'm with many women, so I will stay and be social - though I think last weekend's fun zapped me. I don't feel I've been good on eating, but water has definitely increased. dd14 has her first game as a varsity player tomorrow night and I will miss it. I'm sad about that. The school made playoff t-shirts and her name is on the roster. So cool! Tomorrow's game is not a playoff game - just a practice game. Dh will be there in support.
Beth - I am so sorry about the finality of your mom's estate. Having those last few things hanging there needing to be done was probably an added stress. Glad you were able to get everything finalized.
Diane - what drama indeed! Holy cow! That's funny your dad called and wanted to get you there too. And what is with a funeral three weeks later? That's odd. Is is a memorial? I hope it all comes together and everyone can get along, but the niece does need to understand that plans like this - where people are coming in from out of town can't just be changed at the drop of a hat.
Rachel - have a great weekend with the choir! Hope you can sleep on that bus! ;)
Have a great day and weekend. I'll try to check in after the race tomorrow. I'm shooting for a time less than 40 minutes since that's my fastest in an actual event.
Good morning all!
I'm having a slow start again today. My leg woke me up in the middle of the night throbbing. I did carry some gear in last night, but didn't carry heavy stuff. I'm going back to the chiropractor today and will probably need to do a round of steroids to calm this sucker back down. ARGGH I don't know when I'll get back to gym. We'll see how it goes with the chiropractor today. Must go down to the venue for tonight's gig and reset the mixing board since we didn't have the entire room to set up in last night. I'm getting a little discouraged doing the sound and am thinking I might back out of it this year. Let them find someone else. I'd rather do the photography than the sound. We'll see how it goes. Perhaps I'm just tired because we've gigged every weekend since the new year. Thank goodness we get next week off and then we have two gigs back to back the following week.
Diane--nothing like a party to bring out the best in everyone! :hyst: Geez-the niece must be very young. Sounds like the suggestion to have a casual get together the next day was a very reasonable one, and to state that others are coming in from out of town and its not possible to change things is also reasonable. We had my mom's service 5 weeks after she died-she was creamated so there wasn't a rush to have it and it gave people time to plan for it. But I also realized that not everyone's schedule was going to suit mine. We made sure that the most important people to be there (the closest family) were there and others made it or didn't. Unfortunately life doesn't come to a standstill when someone passes. I'm so glad that you are going to be able to go back for the party and to surprise your folks. That is so cool. So how long are you going to be in San Diego. How's the head feeling?
Charlene--have a great time in Dallas! I'm actually considering a trip there in late March for my brother's birthday. If we don't make it then, we will most definitely visit this year. I look forward to hearing about how you just busted your record and left it lying in the dust. I'm so excited for your DD moving to varsity. Really cool stuff.
Rachel--all ready for your long day tomorrow? Hope the choir does great!
Must get to the chiropractor in a half hour. Have fun all!
Good afternoon everyone!
I am so out of it. My back/leg (more my leg) is so flippin' sore and tight. Went to the chiropractor yesterday and she worked on trigger points in my thigh to the point that I have bruises. I ended up taking a muscle relaxer last night. Sometimes you just have to use a chemical relaxer to get the muscle really let go so it can heal. I have a massage scheduled this afternoon, which I really need. I'm going back to the chiropractor on Monday. I don't know when I'll get back to the gym. Hopefully sometime this week. And after the muscle relaxer I slept to almost 11. Of course I didn't get to sleep until 12:30 after the gig.
The gig was good last night. It was a private party for someone's 70th birthday. But I am so not happy. I get paid a portion of each performers take. Last night it was $5/person. It usually averages out that I get in total about 1/2 of what the performers make (so if they each get $100, I get $50). sometimes its a little more, sometimes a little less, but it all averages out. I put in a lot of effort. I went to rehearsal, I set up the PA, I went back for an hour yesterday afternoon and reset the PA and cleaned up some stuff. I show up early for sound check, I manage the mixer through the entire performance, make playlists for the breaks so the ipod can play when the musicians aren't, and I break down the PA and the board and load up all the stuff, including DH's gear. (Our Jeep Cherokee is packed full) And during the performance, I am constantly adjusting the mix and the volume for changes in the room. It requires paying attention all the time. And I'm always worrying about something going wrong. I finally got the band to get there early to do a sound check before a gig so we can check levels and trouble shoot problems. That was like pulling teeth. Last night 2 of the performers didn't pay me. They all got their money. I can't tell you how much that angers me. I don't want to be chasing people down to get my lousy $5. Its not the money, its the principle of the thing. I've got enough to do after a gig to get out of there. I know I will get it from one of the singers, she's a friend and I'm not worried about her, but the other one is a space cadet and I will probably never see it.
Charlene--how was your race? Running for chocolate--I could probably do that.
Diane--how are you feeling? How is the sister drama?
Rachel--and how is the competition this week?
Its a beautiful day today. I wish I felt better so I could go out and clean the garage, but I'm tired and light headed.
Have a good one all!
Howdy! I am home safe and sound. The race was amazing in that I ran my fastest time of 37.55 for 3.14 miles having to dodge all the walkers and those merely out for a stroll. LOL I was having to slow down, cut around on the sidewalk, cut through people and they were not even trying to get over for the runners. There were 6,140 people in just the 5K, and out of all the men, women and children, I was # 3367 and in my age group, I was 187 out of 429. LOL About middle of the road. Anyway, my fastest time ever in a race had been 41.21 for a true 5K. There were 3759 for the 15K race, so that's almost 10,000 runners! Traffic was AWFUL and it took us 1 hour 40 minutes to get 17 miles. That stunk! Last night at the piano bar - fun stuff. Real crowded but a fun night. dd14 got in about a minute in last night's varsity game. They lost, but dh said she played defense well in that minute. :)
Beth - hope that soreness subsides. That stinks about the $. All members should give their share. Enjoy the pretty day. I may work in the yard some. I already have flowers blooming! And my pool has a tinge of green from the warmer weather.
Hope you all have a GREAT DAY!
Good morning all!
Hello? Hellooooo? HELLOOOO? I'm feeling a tad lonely in here. :cry::)
Slept great again last night. I only took 1/2 of a muscle relaxer and had a massage yesterday. My leg is feeling better but all of muscles are sore from the massage, particularly my neck. I haven't had a massage for almost 2 months. Meeting a friend for coffee today. And printing and sending off our taxes. It is bright and sunny today here. We haven't had hardly any rain since the first of the year, although we had plenty of it in December.
Hope you're all having a good day!

Please help me pick another side for my St. Paddy's Party.....
- spunky_monkey Mar 14, 2008 06:36 AM
So I'm having a St. Paddy's party on Sunday. I've done most of the shopping already, but feel like my menu's lacking something: mainly another veggie. So far, I plan to serve dishes than can mostly be prepared ahead of time, leaving me plenty of time to enjoy the party. Here's what I'm serving:
Baked ham & rolls, Cheesy Potato Gratin, Coleslaw, ????, Oatmeal Cookies, Sugar Cookies.
So, my menu's a little sparse on the veggies, unless you count the mayo-slathered cabbage as a veg. Tasty, yes. Heathly, no. I was thinking about making some type of dilled carrot salad for the other side dish, but then I thought that the sour in that dish might be a little similar to the coleslaw flavors.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Especially those dishes that could be either served at room temperature or could easily withstand being cooked in a crockpot for 3 hours.
Well, green is a big color for St. Parick Day's, why not grilled or roasted asparagus? It's often on sale this time of year. You can serve grilled/roasted asparagus in advance and serve at room temperature.
How about a mixed green salad w/ roasted beets, goat cheese and toasted walnuts (& red peppers instead of beets) w/ a vinaigrette. Adds green (and red color)
Or an apple, celery, pear and walnut salad w/ lemon juice, parsley, capers, olive oil & S&P. That's seasonal -- and refreshing, particularly w/ the heavy ham and taters. Though mostly white, and you have alot of white going on w/ the rolls and potatoes.
re: NYchowcook
I really like the mixed green salad idea (goat cheese is one of my favorites, so that sounds really good)
On the Peeps Cuisine thread, a chowhound mentioned bringing green peeps to St. Patty's Day party ;)
Here's what I'm doing: three salads that represent the three colors (colours!) of the Irish Flag. Broccoli salad for green, Cole Slaw for white, and Carrot Salad for orange. I;'m doing the broccoli with Asian dressing and the carrots Morroccan style, so it won't be all mayonaissy.
Well clearly this is not an Irish meal. Because in Ireland one would be happy to have one veggie and it would likely be fried or boiled way too long. Having been to Ireland several times, I continue to be surprised at how few veggies we were served in pretty nice restaurants if they were outside of Dublin.
Why not go for something with a sauce of guiness or irish whiskey? Large carrot pieces sauted with onions topped a irish whiskey and brown sugar sauce would be easy and stand up a long time. Turnips are a big favourite in Ireland and can be done all kinds of ways. Again with the whiskey sauce.
Maybe a micro green salad because many of the micro greens look like shamrock (clover) sprouts. You could even par boil carrots and cut them out in the shape of shamrocks.
re: mnosyne
I had forgotten about colcannon. My Irish mother-in-law used to make it from leftovers. Her other variation was mashed potatoes with sauerkraut. The only thing that made in edible for me was that she often add a small amount of bacon -- grease and all.
I ditto the colcannon suggestion. Another is to do something else with the taters and add a cabbage gratin. Even cabbage haters like it. You can search the 'net for a recipe but I basically chop the cabbage and parboil and shock it, then fold it into a veloute/bechamel mish mash (I use part stock and part milk) and stir in some grated Gruyere, then turn it into a casserole dish and bake. It's a very forgiving dish that tolerates a variety of oven temps and baking times--the ingredients are all cooked, you're just heating everything together and melding flavors.

Entertainment Book - San Diego
- honkman Jul 26, 2006 06:48 AM
I know that a lot of people don't like the entertainment book and think there are only crappy restaurants included (and most likely I will get banned from Chowhound after this post :)) but I think it is a good way to test a few restaurants and quite often you find something interesting. Soemtimes it is even only one dish you like and go back. I am just curious if other chowhounds use their EB and found anything good.
Here are some restaurant I tested with the EB and found good enough to return:
- California Cuisine (If you like Region or Cafe Cerise you should give it a try)
- Chilango (best "upscale" Mexican in SD)
- Russo's Pasta (Encinitas, small shop specialized in selling fresh pasta, but have also few tables for lunch. You want to buy fresh pasta in SD, this is your place)
- Pizzicato (Encinitas, best pizza in SD)
- Kontinental Deli (Escondido, really small shop which sells some German and Dutch stuff but has also the best Kassler (smoked pork chops) with sauerkraut in SD. Has also great liverwurst and liver loaf).
- El Pollo Loco (I know it is a chain but their chicken is damn good)
- Chicken plus Greek Cuisine (Escondido, I only go for the lamb shanks but they are great)
- Garden Grill (India Street, good Mediterrean Cuisine)
- Da Nino's (Morena Blvd., always go for the Spaghetti Carbonara)
- Tropical Star (Balboa Ave., good South American dishes)
- Spice & Rice (La Jolla, good Thai)
- Pollos Maria (Carlsbad, good chicken)
- La Torta (PB, you want Mexican Torta, that is your place)
- Bety's Restaurant (Encinitas, small Mexican with good food)
- Miramar Cafe (for some reason they have the best Gyros I can find in SD)
- Sammy's Woodfired Pizza (small chain, but very good pizza and good tapas menu)
- Thai Garden (Oceanside, great Thai)
- Joe's Italian Dinner (Escondido, I go for the home made tortellinis)
- Mama Testa's (Hillcrest, if you want tacos, go should go there)
- El Callejon (Encinitas, good for Mexican fish dishes)
- Wired (UTC, good quiches)
- Honey Bistro & Bakery (Encinitas, good breakfast)
Great post. I would never think about something like EB, but that is a list of interesting places.
The EB, or coupons from the Reader is how I find new places. I don't want to pay full price the first time, especially if its bad food...
re: pbhomey
How are Zio Mario's, Island Pasta and Aurora Trattoria ? I have all three on my list.
We both really liked Zio Mario's and Aurora Trattoria. We had lunch at Island Pasta, small casual place with good food. I would choose the other two first.
The other interesting question is of course if you had ever any restaurants which very incredible bad with their food. One example for us was Taco Del Mar in Poway which made the worst burritos we ever had (dry, tasteless etc).
We went yesterday to another new restaurant with the entertainment book: Cocina D. Sanchez. It is across from Cafe Lestat in Normal Heights.
Overall a mixed feeling after the dinner. We had Chilorio Sinaloa: The meat was quite good but the rice, guacamole and beans weren't as good as we hoped. But we also had the Birria (with lamb not goat) which was really good. I also liked that we got an extra plate with fresh cilantro, onions and lemon.
The restaurant has some dishes like Birria which you don't find at many other restaurants in SD and also quite a lot of seafood dishes. Does anybody has some experience with other dishes at Cocina D. Sanchez ? Are there any other not-to-miss dishes like Birria.
Similarly, mightyxx sports radio (check out www.mighty1090.com and look for Mighty Matire d' and Padres Maitre D' links) offers 50$ gift certificates for 25$ and 100$ certificates for 50$ every Wed. and Fri. AM. We have used the ones for Cafe Pacifica and for Chive and were quite happy with both places. They tend to sell out same day if the place is popular, but is a really nice way to check out a place without paying full price.
At Cafe Pacifica I got the feeling that our waiter gave us service as if he was expecting us not to tip on the whole check, and when we went back w/o using the certificate got much better service.
I love Pizzicato. They're actually a chain out of Portland. The owner moved to San Diego and opened a branch here. Some of my favorite pizza. When I used to visit Portland I'd want to eat there daily.
I just wish they had a more southern location.
Not sure I'd rank them above Lefty's or Bronx - I'd say for their style of pizza (gourmet/unusual toppings) they are the best in town, no question.
re: daantaat
There are two versions of the EG, the $40 version has the upscale restaurant discounts, such as Fresh, Roppongi, and California Cuisine. There is no coupon for these places, there is a EG card with lots of numbers. I always call in advance to insure the EG is honored by the place.
Also, many of the restaurants will charge a certain % for the tip in the final bill...usually it is around 18%. Which has its good and bad points.
re: pbhomey
I had never the experience that they would charge a certain % for the tip in the final bill.
I only made once in SD a bad experience with tips and final bills (without the EB) when I was in a restaurant and spoke German with my wife and the waiter decided to add 20% on the final bill because Germans don't know how to tip. (And the service wasn't even good. We decided to pay only 10% tip, but would have paid 15-20% like we normally do when he wouldn't have added it)
That's funny about EB and tipping. The one similar experience we had was at The French Gourmet. Though the food was worth having again, we wouldn't go back after the waiter handwrote on the bill something like "Please remember to base your tip on the pre-discounted bill". My wife paid, and I think she made a different decision.... He was a rather annoying server anyway, definitely detracted from the food. If it's that important to them, I'd rather they just pre-calculate the tip.
We tried EB for about 2 years and definitely think the successes are exceptions to the rule. We also recommend California Cuisine, as above (their specialty coffee with cinnamon schnapps was good). As for La Torta, I remember the original location in La Mesa being better, but haven't been to any of them in a while.
Most of the places in EB are either not good, or they're good but include themselves in the book because they're suffering for business and often close in a few months anyway. My empoloyer provides it free of charge though, so I keep it in the car anyway; just for the "card" places, I don't like dealing with coupons.
re: kimxchris
I wouldn't call the coupon restaurants as bad restaurants. Most of them are not meant to be high end restaurant and a lot of them are quite good for what they do, IMO. And I use the the EB for the last four years and only a relative small number of them went out of business, especially from the "card" places.
Two places I recently tried were Terra (I think this restaurant is quite underrated in SD. Some of the dishes (pumpkin ravioli with roasted corn cream, grilled salmon with spinach gnocchi and collard greens) were outstanding, some of them not as good but still on a similar level as Region/California Cuisine/Cafe Cerise (Kobe Beef Sliders, Duck Confit). http://www.terrasd.com
The second place was Kafe Yen in PB which is an interesting mix of different asian cuisines and has a relaxed ambience. http://www.kafe-yen.com/
I only used 2 coupons:
1) Anita's Mexican in Oceanside - liked my steak burrito and my nephew enjoyed his burger (duh-burger in a Mexican resto ??) but our favorite from this place is their crispy quesadillas.
2) L & L Hawaiian BBQ - value for money and the mac salad is hard to resist
I tried a few more restaurants from the Entertainment book:
- Islander Grill (Guam cuisine, cheap and tasty)
- Swami's (Encinitas, surprisingly good wraps, sandwiches and very good fresh juices)
- Lotsa Pasta (PB, reasonable pasta)
- Mozy's (Encinitas, organic/vegetarian cafe with good wraps)
- Luna Grill (PQ, interesting place which serves good persian/greek food)
- Ocean Thai Cuisine (Oceanside, place got some good recommendation on CH. Can't really understand why, quite disappointing Thai food. Thai Garden in Oceanside is much better.)
- Island Pasta (Coronado, surprisingly good place with homemade pasta. Good for a cheap lunch or dinner on Coronado)
- Spicy Pickle (Poway, first franchise from a chain in SD. We really liked their paninis, some of the best we had in a very long time. They also sell pizza with very thin crust which we will try next time).
way to go honkman, my wife and I have been using the EB for the past eight months it's a great way to find new places to eat and well worth the $40.00 price tag. We've had some hit's (Mariscos Ensenda/Oceanside) and some strikes, but overall it's been great to try different places and not spend big $$.
re: Luigi1963
What other hits and strikes did you have ?
My brother has been a rabid fan of the Entertainment Book in the past, but he noticed with the last book that a lot of the restaurants are in the north part of San Diego. Since he's value-minded (cheap, Ha!), he won't travel that far and waste gas just to save money on a meal.
If this year's book is the same with a lot of the restaurants in the north, he's said he'll stop buying them.
