Roughly once a month, the San Diego gal bloggers and Twitterers get together for an evening out. In January, we were fortunate enough to be hosted by Ingrid Croce of the fabulous Croce’s Restaurant in downtown San Diego. Yes, she was married to the late Jim Croce whose songs are probably now playing in your head.
I have [...]

Have to admit Whisknladle is one of our favorite places to eat in La Jolla right now. If you’re visiting from out of town or a local that hasn’t been yet, you should try it. Whisknladle is known for it’s fresh, simple food. Their dishes aren’t complicated or fussy and they taste fantastic. The post photo [...]

Come On In is one of my favorite places in La Jolla to have a casual bite. Before La Jolla Girl, we were regulars at half price bottle of wine nights on either Monday or Tuesday. Those were the days!
My usual order is a Come On In salad with chicken, sometimes with the carpaccio appetizer [...]

I was just minding my business, scraping super glue off my car key (I’ll blog about that at some point) when I received an email from George’s California Modern. I’m on their list and have loved reading about the changes this institution has gone through recently. This email was about San Diego Beer Week (I [...]

If I could pull it off, I’d probably dine out every day during this 6 day event. It seems every year there are more and more restaurants participating. This year there are 180 restaurants all over San Diego. I’ve got my eye on several I’d like to try, which is probably more than my pants will [...]

UPDATE: Since writing this post, I received a sincere apology from the Regional Manager of Brigantine Restaurants (who own Azul). I honestly appreciate that, however, that’s not why I wrote the post to begin with. As you know, I gush about places and things that I love, but feel that I need to balance that [...]

A friend of ours saw an ad in the paper that Nine-Ten has half price bottles of wine on Wednesdays so we decided to check it out. It had been several years since I’d last been there. We sat outside on the terrace, which other than the heat lamp near our table being temporarily broken(didn’t [...]

Today we made the pilgrimage up to Solana Beach for some of the best pizza in the world. We love Pizza Port, and it’s been a staple in my diet every since I went to college at UCSD. We got there at about 11:30am and it was perfect timing because not a ton of people [...]
