Lake Shore Produce Market BEST Produce and Price hands down!

Sugar plums, berries, spinach, nuts, tomatos that taste like tomatos, flax sees, nut better, salad dressings, local eggs, local milk, local bread, local sausage, buffalo. Way better than the outdoor produce stands where everything is dirty. If they sold toilet paper and stoneyfield farm yogurt I could eliminate the grocery store altogether! I love this place.

Cool Moose Coffee Company Inexpensive and relaxed with good food to boot

As you may see from my reviews I do the brunch thing quite often. This is one of my favorite places. Casual enough to roll in pajamas. The have a standard menu but have some really cool specials as well I have blue corn grits with andoille sausage my mom enjoyed banana foster pancakes before. My new favorite is the hello which is a toasted everything bagel with garlic, onion, smoked salmon and cream cheese. When you are broke and need a bite... They have eggs, cheese, meat sandwiches that are barely more expensive than BK or MCD and I would much rather eat here. My boyfriend loves there coffee I don't drink coffee but it is supposed to me good. I think it is green mountain brand and self serve.

The Costa Rica breakfast special is awesome when you are there beg them to add it to the menu

Sliders Seafood Grille THE BEST STEAMED OYSTERS

Get bushel you will kick yourself if you just get a dozen. The bushel is steamed. If you prefer raw you can get them by the dozen. Or try the Oyster Rockefeller or Casino. Lots of other good stuff on the menu but I just focus on oysters here. Wonderful on a Sunday after the beach. You can go in sandy or sit outside very laid back.

Burrito Gallery $7 for three of my favorite tacos on the planet!

It says burrito in the name and they are good but I love the tacos they are soooo fresh. I like the mahi or carnitas or shimp or steak. No problem you can order one of each. It is like $7 for three tacos! The chimichurri sauce and homemade salsa verdi are fantastic. It does not come with stupid beans and rice to fill you up. There is also have a cool bar out back. I had my birthday and a friends engagement party here we had a blast. Music is usually going on in the back. If you go on an artwalk wednesday it is packed.

Biscotti's

Rock Shrimp Pizza -- Mango Chicken Quesadilla

I have had several items from the menu but these are my favorites! Also a great place for brunch. A nice selection of high end teas and coffees. Grab the paper and read it cover to cover. It is usually pretty busy but a wonderful atmosphere to relax in. I love BB's on the other side of the river too!

Mantra Boston, MA

Mozzarella and Green Chili Naan
Yum I cam still taste this! I popped in a business trip alone I just snuck into the bar and had some great apps and wine. Wonderful!

Brick for Brunch

Tour De Brunch

Several friends said they didn't enjoy the food that much when they went. Perhaps it was right after they first opened. I have always enjoyed what I ordered for dinner. The brunch to me though is the reason for coming. My favorite rendition of huevos rancheros ever!. A tortilla, poached eggs, fresh avocado, black beans and wonderful! They also have a selection of Benedict's that are superb ...crab cake, tenderloin, regular. The outside seating is nice. I wanted to add we actually did a tour de brunch when Lance was doing the tour de france. This was a stop as well at Biscotti's, Metro Diner (San Marco) and Cool Moose.

Mossfire Grill

It's not mexican it is not fesh mex it is it's own breed and Mossfire does it right. Even my picky eater friends dig this place. Some of the faves are ... buffalo shrimp salad, seared ahi tuna, and the chicken empandas. There selection of tequila is insane too.

Pastiche

French Country Yummy

Very nice quiet place. It is my favorite for my b-day or an special occasion. I love the cheese appetizer which is three chesses, nuts, figs and raisin bread. The crab soup is also to die for. I have tried almost everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. They catered my friends wedding and it was great they will cater my wedding! The menu changes all the time so you never get board. I will be working over in this neighborhood soon and I can't wait to make it there for lunch as well. Very nice but not snobby.

Baleen - Paradise Point Resort San Diego, CA

Wonderful individual cottage type rooms set in thousands of bird of paradise right on Mission Bay. The restraunts were great and the place was beautiful.

I had the whole friend snapper and lobster martini it was delicious!
