Yasu definitely makes the experience worth the trip. He's now doing Sushi Wednesday -Saturday.

Who makes the best XO sauce?

If you all have a chance, and are in the San Mateo Area, Chef Wai makes amazing food and the xo sauce dishes are among my favorites

Best of San Diego 2007

As a San Diego newbie, I find that my contributions are a bit limited. However, as a San Francisco and LA foodie transplant, I've made it a bit of a mission to get out and try new things. Here are some of my favorites from the past 6 months. Ichiro's on Convoy for sushi ---particularly on Tuesdays and Fridays. There is a sushi chef, who's name escapes me, who has a following of customers. He's been a sushi chef for the past 20 years and worked at a lot of the usual hot spots in SD. Thai House across the streed from the SD Union Tribune offices in Mission Valley, Tajima's on Convoy for pub style Japanese, Gringos in PB when the students are out of town, K sandwiches and Pho Pasteur on Linda Vista, and the Mission Cafe in North Park for breakfast, and C Level (outside part of Island Prime) near sea world. Dumpling Inn on Convoy.

Runner up: Rendezvous in Del Mar (owned by the same family that own Dumpling Inn on Convoy). 1/2 price bottles of wine on Sundays. Service is a bit spotty though.

Italian Delis (San Diego)

I've been impressed with Filippi's deli section, at least for its salami's and prosciutto, and cheeses. Haven't tried the mortadella. Filippi's is located on India street

Late Night Coffee Shops in San Diego

Thanks for the suggestions. I was in fact looking for a coffeehouse where I could do my work during the early morning hours. I appreciate the suggestions. Keep them coming!

Late Night Coffee Shops in San Diego

Does anyone know of any late night coffee shops in the San Diego area. Preferably something that stays open til 1 or 2am, and doesn't mind people doing work there.

Thanks for the help!

Linda Vista/University of San Diego/Mission Valley

Hi all, thanks so much for the wonderful suggestions. I am really going to enjoy checking out the places you all have suggested! Thanks!

Linda Vista/University of San Diego/Mission Valley

I just moved to San Diego and live near the University of San Diego. I am looking for some new spots for good food. I am not picky about type of cuisine, just as long as the food is tasty and the price isn't outrageous. I'd love to get some suggestions from people who know the area.

Thanks
