Where to find real canned San Marzano tomatoes in North County?
Cardiff Seaside market has them all the time.
Portland Recs
My husband and I will be in Portland for one day/night in July. We are staying at the Nines in downtown. We are looking for a few local breweries and restaurants focused on Pacific Northwest cuisine. NO tourist traps... thinking more on the lines of small, neighborhood places with personality. Looking forward to exploring!
After Dinner Christmas Cocktail
Any ideas for an after dinner cocktail on Christmas Eve? Our family likes Baileys, champagne, or maybe a warm drink to go with a chocolate dessert. Any ideas? Thank you!
North County San Diego OUTSIDE
Thanks Alice, but the US Open is not until June 12th. Love the Del Mar Plaza (interesting people watching) but looking for something new. Thank you all for the recs!
North County San Diego OUTSIDE
Looking for a place to sit outside and have a few glasses of wine or cocktails in Coastal North County San Diego area... Del Mar and north. Any thoughts? Weather is supposed to be fabulous this weekend and I need some new ideas. Thanks!
Alternative to Pizzeria Mozza
Mom LOVES Pizzeria Mozza, but we cannot even get a late afternoon reservation for 5 people on a Saturday afternoon. Any suggestions for an alternative late lunch/early dinner similar to Mozza? We love AOC, Lucques, etc. Please help!!!
Amaya at Grand Del Mar
Anyone been to the "other" restaurant at The Grand Del Mar - Amaya? I have heard it is comparable to Addison, but much less expensive. Thoughts? Need to make reservations for a birthday. Thanks!
Templeton Restaurant Recs
Going to the March Zin Fest in Paso Robles. We are staying in Templeton and would love a few restaurant recommendations. Preferably close to Templeton (due to wine tasting and driving), but we are willing to drive a few miles for dinner. Thank you in advance!

New England Road Trip
Wow Dahlia... I am all over the picnic idea. I just hope my family likes the idea as much as I do. Thank you for the great post!!!
New England Road Trip
Thank you all. We leave in a week so we will be there in time for the trees changing colors. Keep the suggestions coming!
New England Road Trip
Our family (no children, only adults) is headed out to New England from San Diego, California for a road trip. We fly into Boston (1 night), drive to Stowe, VT (2 nights), Lake Winnipausaukee in Sanborton, NH (1 night), to Kennebunkport (1 night), to Camden, Maine (1night) then back to Boston (2 nights). I need local (non-chain) lunch and dinner restaurant recommendations in route. Nothing too high end, as casual may be better with all the driving we will be doing. We love lobster and seafood, so we are looking forward to indulging while we are in the area. I am looking for restaurants that serve local, seasonal produce/ingredients from New England. Thank you in advance!

King of Prussia - Dinner
I need a nice restaurant in the King of Prussia area for a business dinner. Around $25 per person without wine is preferred. I am a California girl and used to the fresh and simple preparation of local ingredients. Something similar would be GREAT! Thank you!
Virgin Gorda / St Barts
Thank you SO MUCH!!! Do Brazil sounds like just what I am looking for!!!
Virgin Gorda / St Barts
We will have access to the island via scooter (or car) during the late morning through late afternoon. I am looking for a lunch restaurant where we can eat and have a few afternoon cocktails. Preferably on the beach... the smaller, more local, the better. Thank you!
Virgin Gorda / St Barts
Going on vacation in Virgin Gorda and St Barts next week via yacht. Need some restaurant and beach bar recommendations when we dock... preferably laid back with a great "vacation" atmosphere. Thanks!

Wow... great response. Thank you! Any info on Beechwood? Has anyone been there?
Santa Monica/Westwood Restaurant Needed
My sister attends UCLA, I live in San Diego and our mom is coming to visit in LA. I need a good restaurant (mid-priced) with great food, fun ambiance and a good wine list. Any suggestions in the Santa Monica/Westwood area? Thanks!

Market San Diego
Going to 'Market' in Del Mar for the first time tonight. It's my birthday... what's 'not to miss' on the menu?
Thanks!
Bakery in North San Diego
I need a bakery in North County San Diego (coastal) for an adult birthday cake. Any suggestions? Tried VG's and was not too impressed. Thanks!
Marina District Cocktails
I always get them confused. Thank you... Marina district!!!
Marina District Cocktails
I will be in the city for one night next month. We have reservations at A16 for dinner, but would like to have cocktails beforehand. Is there a restaurant in the Mission District area (with a bar or lounge) that is known for original and interesting cocktails? If not before dinner, maybe for after-dinner drinks and dessert? Any help would be much appreciated!
Pittsburgh Restaurants
I need to take a client to dinner in Pittsburgh next month. Being from California, I am quite picky about my fish and fresh produce. Any suggestions near the city for an upscale nice restaurant to impress? I have heard of Casbah, but cannot tell much from the website. Thanks!
Berkeley Bakery/Café
My mom and I are headed to San Francisco next month for a “girls weekend” to celebrate her birthday. She is picking me up at the Sacramento airport at 8:00 am and we will be driving straight into the city. I thought we may stop in Berkeley for some coffee and a light breakfast/pastry. Definitely do not want anything mainstream, maybe even just a great bakery that serves coffee. Any suggestions for a small place?
