Your disappointing purchases from Costco

and your local wine merchant is exempt? Think about that wine buyers statement as wines are shipped across country year round.

Why do you continue shopping at CostCo? I am underwhelmed. What do you appreciate about the warehouse store?

SD, Morena location.

Good eats near Sea World with 20-month-old toddler?

there's a pretty good bbq/rib place in the Sea World grounds.

Costo membership - worth it? must-tries etc.

really, blame warehouse stores not impulse shoppers??? well that's what you get from cnbc...crap, I go with a list and execute.

Trader Joe's Yea/Nay Thread - 2nd quarter 2012

I wasn't expecting greatness for $5.99 but, I do like a robust peppery EVOO. This was meh, I'm using it for cooking.

ask your farmer next time you're ready to purchase.

best thing to do is ask the courtesy desk folks or call the store.

Requesting feedback for cheap eats list for San Diego visit

May want to add a Marisco's Truck for baja fish tacos, a good truck is 2 blocks up from Super Cocina. Might want to search for Happy Hours, mostly a good value, lots of places with half price apps. There are good brew some houses in North County:

Churchill's Pub in San Marcos
Lost Abbey Brewery in San Marcos
Iron Fist Brewery in Vista

You should fill out a request, on a comment card, to stock organic milk.

This Week According to the Superdiners

Corn dogs..... SD is aggressively moving up on the food chain.

Garden Cafe (Poway) highly recommended

from the looks of that 2nd pic, you could pull the meat and have a perfect veggie sammie.

much of the abuse was focused on tv returns after the super bowl game.

cook books, in general, are on the downslide cause of free recipes online.

My Costco always has organic carrots.

Finally some decent falafel - Michoz, Hillcrest

How was the outter crust? Flavor? Tahini sauce?

San Diego nightlife?

I'm suggesting that you and your friend may be an easy target for out of town visitors or some locals who may be trolling. You probably need to be part of a larger group when clubbing downtown. There's safety in numbers.

San Diego nightlife?

You were in the heart of the tourist district, Gaslamp, probably not the best place or choice if you were looking for something a bit more tame.

For me, it's not about bulk but, rather 'unit cost' for the quality of their products. You'll be surprised the price difference from regular super markets. I also save .10 per gallon on gas. Over the years, I have purchased computers, tv's, tires, small appliances etc and saved hundreds. That's money in my pocket for other uses.

So what are you underwhelmed about?

You are leaving San Diego forever; where would you eat?

Pho.... Burger Lounge.... In-N-Out... the OP just said leaving SD not dying and leaving SD. I'd definately hit Super Sergio's

need help with 2-day itinerary on a budget please!

Yes it's lamb and they also have rabbit oh meatless one!

You are leaving San Diego forever; where would you eat?

Barbacoa at Aqui es Texcoco
Slow Braised selection at Super Cocina

Brooklyn Girl- early review

On my way back from breakfast, I passed a car with a licence plate that said, 'I'm Fake'. Was that yours truly?

GREAT SPOTS IN PACIFIC BEACH TO EAT

Latin Chef, Peruvian
Chupa Cabras, Mex Street tacos etc.
Bare Back Grill, great burger, excellent happy hour.
World Famous, ocean front views, good happy hour.

San Diego Trip Report from a Seattle Hound

Well, maybe he was telling the truth in a weird way. Moms never pay 'here' but, their sibs will pay for them.... later.

Fogo de Chao - Brazilian BBQ [moved from DC/Balt]

I have eaten there several times over the years, I found the meats to be very salty and they had no distinct flavors. The salad buffet bar has good selections.

I'm craving...

Soft shell crabs, any sightings?

San Diego - Great weather, but where is the outside dining?

I agree, the patio at B&C is wonderful with interesting foot traffic.

Finally -- a Dunkin' Donuts in San Diego...

Both places have their nitch and customer base, look at how they sell each day. It's just not my nitch! I'll stay with Bird Rock Coffee Roasters.
