Sees candy in San Antonio???
I was thinking of sending a box of See's Candy t a friend in San Antonio. When I google See's Candy San Antonio a San Pedro address comes up. But See's Candy website doesn't show a store in San Antonio. So, is there a See's Candy store in San Antonio. Don't want my gift to be met with "Ugh, we have these here, fool!". Although my friend would never tell me that, I would probably feel that way. Thanks.

hello chowhounds,
just made last minute plans to come to SF to see the de Young YSL show Sat. April 4th and i was unable to make reservations at Delfina, Zuni, or Slanted Door. Gee whiz, what's a hungry guy to do? since i will only be in SF for a couple of days I don't want to spend too much time waiting for a table but i do want to have a truly great SF culinary dinner experience before heading back to LA.
any recommendations for an under-the-radar-not-too-late-to-make-reservations restaurant?
any suggestions are welcome!!!
sincerest thanks!!!!!!
a place to eat in SD with 3 kids after the ZOO...
I love potato tacos, any poor people food, really! but the beef taquitos in a spicy beef broth sounds AMAZING! As for the tacomal being heavy, I am sure my 240 lb S.O. won't be able to resist that dish!!! jejejeje....

a place to eat in SD with 3 kids after the ZOO...
hi! me and my S.O. are taking my nephews (5, 12, and 13) to the San Diego Zoo on a Saturday before Christmas and want to go to dinner somewhere casual and yummy for dinner before driving back to LA.
we really like mexican, italian, and, of course, the kids like burgers/pasta. can anybody suggest a restaurant in San Diego that is not a chain, not kid-specific, and super yummy. when in town we really enjoy Spread and an Indian place on University but both of those places seem a little to 'foreign' for my nephews.
i hope i am not being too vague. any recommendations would be totally appreciated!
thanks!
Where to eat in Mexico City
By far my favorite restaurant in Mexico City is:
La Tecla
186-A Durango, Col. Roma
+ 52 55 5525 4920
The food is some of the best Mexican food I've ever had...seriously. And be adventerous! Eat at some mercados and street stands. I've had some fo the best birria at a stand in Colonia Indepedencia. I forget the street but I go there everytime I am in DF.
Have fun!!!
Two weeks in Condesa - Breakfast
I second flor de lis!! delicious tamales, great realxing ambience, and really great service!
The Park in Echo Park
The calamari was very good! I also loved the corn cakes! The butterleaf salad with roasted beets was so-so. I had the hangar steak which I really enjoyed and ate every last bite! My boyfriend had the salmon which he didn't really care for. But he loved his butterscotch dessert! I had the chocolate cake. Nothing spectacular but if you love chocolate like me then it is just right.
As for the service-hmmmm...the asian server was super friendly and attentive...she had a great sense of humor and just personable enough to know that she was there but not overbearing. Unfortunately, the other server was a little orange county. She was kinda blah, bland, boring...
I will definitely be going back to try some vegitarian courses and for more of that calamari heaven! YUM!
Did I metion that the prices couldnt be any better? No? Well, they are fantastic!
Nine Days in Mexico City, Report Back
what a wonderful posting on the various cuisine of my favorite place to travel: Mexico City! Flor de Lis in the Condessa is also one of my favorites. I just had a tamalada (tamale making/eating party with friends and family) here in Los Angeles and I tried to duplicate a few of the tamales like the chipotle pork tamales which is probably the best tamal I have ever had in my life. The next time you are in DF you should try La Tecla in Roma.

Restaurants for Thanksgiving!
I will be in SF for the Thanksgiving holiday and I am not sure where to eat. Does anyone have any dining experience in this food driven holiday? I am looking for something that is slightly traditional and not overly expensive. Any suggestions would be super helpful!
Seattle hound, coming to Austin
Definitely check out Las Manitas for breakfast. The posole is incredible and the migas are delicious!
